Perfectly demonstrating the benefits of giant Toggle Free HPDC machines for large parts, BMW re-designed a 16-piece crash relevant battery housing and cast it as a single, lightweight aluminium part.
As well as being more economical to produce, the part’s performance is everything you would expect from BMW - all of which helped it to awards success at the EUROGUSS 2022 European Die Casting Competition.
The impact of e-mobility across automotive coupled with shifting trends in both industrial and communications technology mean one thing. Demand for large, lightweight, structural aluminium parts is increasing. What’s more, demand is now often for such parts ‘at volume’.
To leverage the opportunity ahead, die casters need something different. A way to cost-effectively fulfil demand for bigger structural components, in larger quantities. Efficiently and reliably.
We’ve ensured that configuration options for our TF range of Toggle Free HPDC machines deliver the casting benefits you need to capitalise on the ‘large structural part’ casting evolution currently taking place.
Thanks to our unique modular design, choose from GIANT options including:
• Closing forces from 5,700 up to 11000 tonnes
• 2 different tie bar distances for each model tailoring your mechanism
• 3 different injection forces (up to 5265 KN/stroke) to match yours casting needs
