Lightweighting castings is a never ending challenge, but it's a problem to which Sarginsons unique range of skills, technology, and experience is well adapted. And this is why Sarginsons has reduced the mass of every casting it's reviewed, by more than 20%, with no loss of mechanical performance.
Advanced lightweighting requires the whole casting technology package. A big complex, evolving package involving a deep understanding and control of infinite connected variables, where success can, ironically, rely on exploiting the nature of casting imperfections.
You don't just lightweight a casting. It's research, art, experience and intuition tightly woven into one, controlled package.
Lightweighting is at the heart of what Sarginsons do. And is the area in which it has had it's greatest successes. Almost all Sarginsons technical breakthroughs play a part in its mission to drive weight out of components which, with reductions exceeding 20%, is genuinely revolutionary and world leading.
Every aspect of the casting process, from design and alloy development to simulations and topology has been overhauled for lightweighting potential. And with the potential of 3D printing and Smart Cooling, it is a process that is accelerating as the true potential of genuinely organic forms becomes clearer.
The same digital twin and topology processes that lighten components can be used to enhance mechanical strength which, with better alloy grain refinement, 3D printed cores and new heat treatment protocols, enables Sarginsons to control TYE performance, at any point across a cast components form.
Stronger, Greener, Larger, Lighter castings.
A deeper understanding of the technology of aluminium casting gives Sarginsons the creative freedom to challenge accepted wisdoms. And to crush assumptions, which have restricted the extraordinary potential of liquid metal engineering, to create new, dynamic, organic forms.
