HERO Premium Casting® - for lightweight, high-strength, complex aluminium casting parts with casting factor 1.0
The HERO Premium Casting® process for aluminium investment castings is a combination of an innovative casting process with intelligent process-engineering. The results are light-weight, high-strength complex components that successfully meet tomorrow's design demands today.
The patented HERO Premium Casting® process differs from conventional casting methods with its computer assisted control of component solidification. In the casting process, the required solidification parameters are programmed on a process computer which translates them to repeatable mechanical properties.
The HERO Premium Casting® aluminium process was developed at TITAL 1990 by a five member engineering team and is a combination of an innovative casting process with intelligent process engineering. The HERO Premium Casting® process differs from conventional casting methods by using computer-assisted component solidification. The rapid, controlled solidification achieved with the HERO Premium Casting® process produces an extremely fine metallurgical structured component that is virtually defect-free with superior mechanical properties.
The patented HERO Premium Casting® process also leads to stable and predictable shrinkage which allows TITAL to meet our customers toughest dimensional requirements.
