Main Menu Light Metal Products The KSM Castings Group manufactures components and systems made of aluminum and magnesium for the automotive industry in modern casting and manufacturing processes and under the observance and being conscious of the strictest environmental standards. Chassis With Controlled Vacuum Casting (CVC®), Gravity Die Casting and CPC (Counter Pressure Casting) we are well established in the manufacture of crash-related chassis components with high demands on elongation and strength. We assure the quality of your products by automatic x-ray systems, fluorescent penetrant inspection and by monitoring material properties using spectral analysis and destructive testing. Product examples: Subframes Structural Nodes and Brackets Cross Members Wheel carriers Knuckles Pedal bracket systems Powertrain Using High Pressure Die Casting machines with clamping forces ranging from 400 to 3200 tons, we produce high production volume, complex geometry products in aluminum and magnesium for all areas of transmission, engine and driveline applications. More than 80% of the die-castings we produce are machined on state-of-the-art CNC machining and assembly units. Product examples: Cylinder head covers Pump housings Camshaft carrier Transmission housings Clutch housings Transmission internals Valve bodies Structures With Controlled Vacuum Casting (CVC®) we produce crash-related body components with high demands on elongation and strength. Product examples: Shock towers Side members Cross members Node elements E-mobility E-mobility is a significant focus for us – both in the process development and in the production of prototypes and readiness for series production. For this emerging market we have already produced prototypes and pre-series components with great success. We also have advanced feasibility design, engineering and planning to allow these efforts to be adapted and scaled to our higher production volume processes.

Main Menu Products & competencies Your vision is our incentive We support your product from initial concept through series production. We launch a new product considering all factors in the process chain – from product specification through process simulation. We produce sophisticated products, made of aluminum and magnesium alloys with state-of-the-art casting and machining technologies. We provide high quality work in all phases of product and system development in close cooperation with our customers and partners to deliver the highest quality results. Quality is our number one objective. We take all the necessary steps to ensure high quality production including FEA calculations, prototyping, and validation testing.
