CASTING & MACHINING

CASTING

From £350.- (no VAT)

Why use Casting?

• Produce complex shapes that would be expensive if machined from billet
• Reverse Engineering of existing Cast component
• Generate components that have multiple voids for fluid or air flow 
• Create sculptures for displays or decoration

What have we used this on previously?

• Gearbox Casings
• Cylinder Heads
• Cam Covers
• Induction components
• Race Car hub and uprights

What do we include in the cost? 

• Onsite visit to scan component if required
• Component Design and Analysis if required
• CAD creation for build
• Mold and Core design
• Final Molds
• Cast components
• Post process assembly and testing
• Material testing samples and reports if required

How long does it take?

• Scanning and generation of a CAD file is usually completed under two weeks depending on scanner availability.
• Design and creation of molds usually takes around four weeks to complete
• A test casting without machining can take between one and two weeks to produce

MACHINING

From £350.- (no VAT)

Why use Machining?

• Finish surface machining of a cast component
• Modification of existing component
• Final surface finishing of a new component from billet 
• Production of molds for Composite or Casting projects
• Generating bucks for bodywork
• Creating sculptures out of high density foam

What have we used this on previously?

• LMP, F1, F2 and Time Attack car bodywork manufacture
• Gearbox Casings, Cylinder Heads and Cam Covers 
• Induction components for creation of new castings and molds
• Kit Car Chassis and transmission components
• RoPs (Roll Cage) components
• Brackets

What do we include in the cost? 

• Onsite visit to scan component if required
• Component Design and Analysis if required
• CAD creation for build
• Technical Drawing Files
• Final machined components

How long does it take?

• Depending on component complexity and design, machining can be undertaken within a week
