(1) Credibly eliminate shrinkage defects & gas porosity that are compounding scrap costs.
(2) Save weight, enhance design, and leverage the best material properties an alloy can offer.
(3) Reduce total cost and waste for structural, complex, and pressure-tight parts.
Starting with premium grade ingot, we produce our own thixotropic bar for semi-solid thixocasting. This onsite capability achieves >98% yield, limiting material cost to part weight.
We provide tooling, semi-solid thixocasting, heat treatment, machining, finishing, and tiered coating services to deliver value engineering solutions ready for assembly.
Part weights: 5 g to 5 kg.
EAU: 1,000 to 500,000 pcs/yr.
Rethink forgings, extrusions, and machined parts to benefit from a near net shape, fully dense process at lower total manufacturing cost.
Replace castings prone to costly porosity, field failure, or dimensional instability.
Contract Manufacturer for High Integrity & Structural Parts
to World-Class OEMs in North America, Europe, and Asia
since 1999.
Filling molds with partially solidified metal at high pressure and reduced turbulence means effectively eliminating gas & shrink defects.
Convert 6061-T6 forgings and extrusions to a near net shape process with comparable mechanical properties.
Reduce mass and enhance design with confidence that thixocasted walls can be machined back even thinner and won’t open up porosity.
Eliminate sub-surface defects and improve polishing, plating, and coating yields.
Apply low cost, high benefit T5 heat treatment to boost mechanicals or T6 to fully maximize properties.
Tailor alloy and temper regiments to achieve even higher material performance.
Weld thixocastings to extrusions and other components.
Prevent the formation of leak paths with high internal integrity and soundness.
Lower die replacement cost from less thermal fatigue since metal is already partially solid.

From premium grade ingot, material heats are alloyed, filtered, degassed, electromagnetically stirred, and continuously cast as bar to produce and control the equiaxed grain structure that enables our high-integrity, semi-solid thixocasting process. Billets are cut, preheated to induce thixotropy, then injected, turbulence-free, into isothermal dies. Material solidification occurs under high consolidation pressure to yield fully dense, near net shape, heat-treatable parts with peak mechanical properties that conform to NADCA precision tolerance standards.
We provide onsite CNC machining, surface preparation, shot blasting, vibratory tumbling, and light assembly. We also offer managed services for anodize, powder coat, chrome plating, e-coat, liquid paint, chromate, and more.
