FAQ

Which alloys can ACTech machine?

Which alloys can ACTech machine?

We work with almost any alloy and cast according to any global casting standard you require. Our list of materials specifies all the alloys we offer. If the material your company wishes to work with has special specifications, either let us know or send us the required mechanical properties and we will offer you the suitable material. With over 25 years of experience, we are certain to find the best solution for you and your project.

How does ACTech ensure the quality of the material alloys?

How does ACTech ensure the quality of the material alloys?

The composition of the alloys is set according to the relevant standard or customer specification. A spectral analysis is performed for each melt. We have a wide range of testing and measuring equipment in-house for regularly checking the material parameters of each part.

Are the casting materials in prototype casting identical to those in batch production?

Are the casting materials in prototype casting identical to those in batch production?

Some batch casting materials, such as die casting alloys, cannot always be used in sand casting. With their many years of experience, our expert foundry engineers are available to advise customers on the selection of suitable alternative materials and work with them to identify an optimum solution.
