HOME OPERATION ABOUT VÅ CONTACT US DIE CASTING GRINDING AND TUMBLING PROCESSING TOOL VARNISHING & SURFACE TREATMENT ASSEMBLY & PACKING MOLD CASTING DIE CASTING Aluminum die-casting is suitable for medium to large series, from 2,000 to over 100,000 parts per year. The biggest advantages of die casting are a high surface finish, minimal need for machining, high tolerance accuracy and, above all, a low retail price. Our die casting plant ranges from 200 to 1,200 tons, robotized and fully automated and we perform continuous downtime monitoring to optimize productivity. Our philosophy has always been that the machine park should be top class and we attach great importance to constantly investing in modern and efficient machines and training our employees. For best product quality and cost efficiency, we melt in central smelter. We offer alloys according to the customer's needs and all material deliveries have certificates that are documented and handled for complete traceability. © VÅ Pressgjuteri AB Ås, 330 10 BREDARYD 0371-708 80 info@vapress.se

HOME OPERATION ABOUT VÅ CONTACT US MATERIAL Aluminum is the most common metal in the earth's crust and the third most common element. Aluminum is a versatile material with many uses - everything from soda cans to furniture parts and aircraft. One of the most important properties of aluminum is that the material quality is not adversely affected by remelting and aluminum can therefore be recycled an infinite number of times. When aluminum scrap is reused, the environmental impact is reduced by 95%. Advantages of aluminum: Low weight Easy to join Easy to shape Heat conductive High strength Electrically conductive Corrosion resistant Cost effective Environmentally friendly We normally use 2 standard alloys, EN AB-46000 and EN AB-43400, as well as additional special alloys that can be used when needed or desired. All purchased materials are made from recycled aluminum, the main supplier for materials is Stena Aluminum.
