Rheocasting
Temperature-controlled Slurries
Temperature controlled slurries in Rheocasting are not production-stable! Small changes (0.8 Kelvin) in temperature affect the slurry quality, making consistent casting hard. RheoMetal’s process isn’t slurry-temperature-dependent, ensuring stable production. Discover why accuracy matters!

Expand your Product Portfolio with Rheocasting
The shift toward electric vehicles has reduced demand for powertrain parts, impacting foundries. Rheocasting allows for high-wall thickness castings, perfect for truck industry needs. This allows for lower prices for customers and increased profit margins for foundries. AlSi7Mg is perfectly castable in Rheocasting, simplifying material validation.

Porosity in high wall-thickness castings
Shrinkage & air porosity are major issues in high wall thickness castings, like battery housings. Rheocasting reduces porosity with lamellar flow & lower shrinkage, cutting costs & preventing leaks. Improve your casting quality with Rheocasting!

Sustainability
Energy consumption of Aluminium Alloys
Foundries are energy-intensive, and rising energy costs are squeezing margins even tighter. Melting 1kg of aluminium to 750°C uses 0.291 kWh, and that’s just part of the process. With sustainability demands increasing, the carbon footprint matters more than ever. Are you tracking your energy use and emissions?
