Die Casting
MRT – Helping Designers Take Greater Control Of Die Casting
Cutting out the middlemen and going direct to the experts at MRT allows product designers to take greater control of die casting.
By dealing direct with a specialist die casting foundry on a one-to-one basis, designers gain maximum control over the manufacture process.
Stripping out the middlemen and instead using one expert castings company reduces the number of suppliers involved, speeding up the process and cutting costs.
MRT Castings Managing Director Phil Rawnson stated: “The more suppliers you use, the more a project can be slowed by the weakest link in the chain.
“Going straight to one absolute professional in die castings ensures not only the quality of the work, but also that it will be made in the most efficient way possible.”
Using a single source die casting professional to cast, machine and finish components drastically shortens time to market, helping projects to overcome critical hurdles.
Dealing direct with a single supplier not only speeds up the communications process and reduces stress – it also cuts out the unnecessary logistics and production costs that would otherwise be incurred by going to multiple suppliers.
Increasing numbers of designers are turning to MRT Castings for aluminium die casting as a highly efficient way of creating rugged, aesthetically and dimensionally critical products and components.
They are calling on the experts at MRT for specialist advice on which aluminium alloys are best suited to their programs – such as LM6 for marine ‘on outdoor patio’ castings and car fittings, or LM25 the place high strength and anti-corrosion components are vitally important.
MRT has one of the most advanced foundries of its kind in the UK, offering designers a choice of die casting processes to help them transform their concept visions into reality.
These include gravity die casting and high pressure die casting for both zinc and aluminium – on state of the art equipment for absolute quality and product consistency.
Gravity die casting at MRT presents considerable quality advantages over standard casting methods, including outstanding surface finishing and mechanical properties.
MRT has years of experience in gravity die casting, investing significantly in microprocessor-controlled die casting machines to optimise consistency and boost production rates.
MRT also offers pressure die casting which is highly appealing to designers requiring really fine engineering tolerances or excellent cosmetic finish.
Pressure die casting is the shortest route from molten metal to end component and MRT’s advanced process controls guarantee consistency, whether dealing with batches of 10 or 10,000.
Other services at MRT include sand casting, toolmaking, CNC machining, surface finishing and mechanical assembly.
MRT Castings is an ISO9001:2000-accredited, family-owned foundry with more than 60 years of experience in high quality die casting.
The company has always invested – and continues to invest – in the newest technology to maintain its place at the cutting edge of UK foundries.
