Aluminum Gravity Casting
Aluminum Gravity Casting
Aluminum gravity die casting is one of Aluminum casting mold metal methods.
This is a method to inject melted aluminum into metal mold by only gravity power. In comparison with sand casting, this method has advantages in high productivity, accuracy of product, capability to produce complicated shape and smooth surface.

Tochu does consistently all processes, which are making ideas of products made from AC2B material, mold design, processing of heat, inspection, and machining processing. Also, for complicated shapes, it is excepted to produce fastly and greatly cut down expense by using core. in inspection, we keep a complete service situation for every product's X line inspection. we have service for a small number of prototypes of course, and also for mass‐produced goods.
With our skills, we will produce a product which is fitting for customer's needs.
