Take the blinkers off!
Whether you are designing a new part, assembly or complete system there is a natural tendency to take the easy or most familiar route- this may be to fabricate parts or to machine them from solid. Sometimes the thought of tooling investment is off putting when the design is not yet settled. But there are many other options that should be considered and investment casting can offer a cost effective solution, enabling more complex designs to be considered and with aluminium tooling you retain the ability to modify the design at low cost.
The principle can be used for value engineering exercises and DGI’s team of highly trained engineers are able to advise on the correct process for the application, be that investment casting, commercial grade investment casting, sand casting, die casting, forging or even fabrication, keeping machining requirements to a bear minimum.
We can also advise on suitable material grades offering materials with mechanical properties than can sometimes enable weight savings through thinner sections; use of our casting simulation and stress analysis software also ensures that the designs are fit for purpose with optimised design parameters and excellent integrity.
So whether you have a clean sheet of paper or are looking to reduce costs or improve your product we will always have something to offer from our wide range of processes and services, and a commitment to the very best quality and service at the most competitive price.
