Avoid Sand Casting Prototypes to Speed up your Development Process
It takes at least three years to develop a casting in the automotive industry from scratch to SOP. The first prototypes are usually made by sand casting. Yet, sand casting has different requirements than HPDC. So you spend at least a year on a process for 300 parts that you will never need again. Why not start the right way and save time and money?
This snippet is from our seventh Gold Nugget, “The Transformation of Heck & Becker”, of the Goldcasting podcast. In this episode, we discuss the change of Heck & Becker GmbH & Co. KG from a tool maker to an HPDC prototyping facility.
So, how do you change existing processes and succeed by focusing on your strengths? Listen to the Gold Nugget and get some new ideas from our guests Benni Jung and Andre Weißbenner!
