Advancing Continuous Casting Capabilities
Dens Metals incorporates the best of accepted
continuous casting methods with innovative technology. The
casting plant now comprises four independent units all capable
of producing solid and cored material. Three of these units
are a development of the original Delta Encon/Asarko Continuous
Casting System and are suitable for producing sizes from
7/16"" dia up
to 6. 3/8" dia over a limitless range of profiles.
The
fourth unit specialises in casting small diameter material
from 7/16" dia to 1.1/4" dua to exceptionally tight
tolerances. Material produced from this machine is ideally
suited to machine shops utilising automatic bar feed.
Our casting process allows us to cast exceptionally
thin walls (as
low
as 9%) and very tight tolerance outside diameters which
reduces
the
weight of material required to be purchased for the production
of component parts. We also have the ability to cast bespoke
alloys which include up to 20% Tin, Lead or Nickel. |
