Chill Casting

Chill casting - the solution for high standards

Chill casting – your advantages

Chill casting lends the casting especially good properties:

• mechanical/technological characteristics in keeping with requirements
• dense, homogenous structure, outstandingly suitable for hydraulic applications
• easy machinability
• particularly suitable for surface treatment, e.g., hardening and coating
• good mechanical/technological characteristics

One-stop production from mould making to finishing.
