DESIGN EVALUATION - MATERIALS - PROCESSING
Innovative metal casting foundries have a wealth of knowledge on casting design, alloys, and processing techniques. The most robust and cost-effective products are developed in close collaboration with the manufacturing team.
CASTING & TOOL DESIGN
Eck Industries uses the MAGMA and WINCAST solidification modeling tools to predict porosity, solidification, and a range of attributes that affect proper mold filling. We can use these tools early in your design, and we will certainly use them as we design the tooling.
MATERIAL SELECTION
Rarely do you find a foundry that pours as many aluminum alloys as Eck Industries.
Our experience includes applications subject to impact or fatigue, or is safety critical, or needs toughness (see A206), or it must maintain strength at elevated temperatures for a long duration (224, 242, or Al-Ce).
You know your design requirements, yet we know the casting materials and the pros & cons of various processing techniques. Let's collaborate!
