With the advent of Giga Casting (our compliments to those who had the intuition and courage to be pioneers, from the creation of the first Giga Press, to the related peripherals), the application philosophy of lubricants for Giga-molds was put to the test, demonstrating effectiveness even with casting and mold dimensions never seen before. Moltultech Baraldi did not miss the opportunity to field test what it had developed over the last decade, achieving all the objectives that the work team had set for itself. There are moments when we need to seize the moment and the Giga Presses represent, in die casting, one of those moments, testing all the process technologies, including the lubrication of the molds. We would like to underline that we are currently very active in China, where significant investments are being made in this market segment. While approaching this topic with caution and confidentiality, we have found environments in China that are very receptive and open to process and product innovations. It is precisely in this Asian country where we perceived the greatest interest in deepening our working methodology and the possibility of applying it to a variety of unrivaled pieces. This experience allows us to deal with competence and professionalism with the requests that are also increasingly coming from Europe.

We are thrilled to share the recent publication of a paper by our colleague Christian Harter: Momentum for Mega Castings - Impact on Technology, Market and Value Chains. This paper explores the transformative potential of Aluminum Mega Castings in the automotive industry, particularly through Chinese carmakers. Simplifying production, reducing costs, and reshaping value chains, Mega Castings are set to revolutionize how vehicles are designed and manufactured. Imagine: Up to one hundred individual sheet metal components in a rear vehicle structure can be replaced by a single Mega Casting component! In cooperation with Automotive Disruption Radar, the paper was just released on their platform! You can find the link to the full paper in the comments below. 👇

Gigacasting and Thixomolding News & Insights • Subscribe to my weekly newsletter lucagreco.beehiiv.com
SAIC presents 30% Lighter Thixomolded Electric Motor Housing https://lnkd.in/dXiTNsH5 The Chinese automotive manufacturer from Shanghai released its 2nd generation magnesium alloy electric motor housing. This product is the world's first mass produced magnesium alloy electric vehicle motor housing produced with Thixotropic injection molding technology (or Thixomolding) The total weight of the motor housing is 13.7kg and it's reported to use AZ91D alloy. It weighs 30% less compared to the average aluminum motor housing and achieves a power density of 4.4 kW/kg. SAIC reported that the thixomolding process greatly improves the strength, elongation and corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy materials, making its large-scale mass production application in the field of new energy vehicles possible. SAIC used Yizumi's 3,200 t magnesium Thixomolding machine to produce their 2nd generation motor housing parts while previously it used traditional high pressure die casting machines.

🌟Amazing Collaboration at Japan Die Casting Exhibition 2024🌟 We are thrilled to share that our advanced Swing Clamps and Rotary Joints were featured at the recent Japan Die Casting Exhibition in Yokohama😆. These innovative products were integrated into Brother Industries' Deburring Machine (#SPEEDIO DG-1), and their capabilities were showcased in a live demonstration. We really appreciate the great collaboration with #brotherindustries team!!🎉 Our rotary joints feature highly durable sealing and a highly rigid body, ensuring consistent performance and reliable operation even after prolonged use. This makes them ideal for applications like deburring. Our swing clamps allow the arm to swing back, providing easy access for deburring the face of the workpiece. This design maximizes efficiency and ensures a high-quality finish. We were delighted to demonstrate the effectiveness of our solutions in action, highlighting their ability to enhance manufacturing processes. In addition, Brother Industries’ DG-1 Deburring Center will be launched in FY2025. #Kosmek #SwingClamp #WHA #RotaryJoint #JRX #Deburring #BrotherIndustries #SPEEDIO #JapanDieCastingExhibition #Manufacturing #Automation #Innovation

Giga Casting offers more than just part consolidation—it transforms production from design to assembly. As numerous smaller components are replaced by a single large structural casting, the demands on tolerances increase significantly. Each casting must fit precisely within the specific vehicle structure, making precision and tight tolerance management essential. This approach not only simplifies assembly and reduces potential failure points but also shortens manufacturing time and costs, improving material efficiency and minimizing supply chain complexity.Learn more about Giga Casting at RLE Mobility: https://lnkd.in/eRbkC6yx #gigacasting #ev #vehicledevelopment #vehilcemanufactoring #vehicleconstruction
