An order from a customer in the field of compressed air technology placed the highest demands on the development and production of a valve housing: For use in a pneumatic component, the headpiece had to have accurately produced threads and sealing surfaces despite complex geometries. As well as being pressure-tight, temperature-resistant, durable and robust for everyday industrial use. And all this with the additional requirement of economic efficiency and sustainability as well as the minimal and energy-efficient use of all resources.
The tasks in relation to the technical realisation couldn't be more challenging - and couldn't be implemented without further processing after the casting," says Sven Weustenhagen from Technical Sales.
In close collaboration between the customer and POWER-CAST Ortmann, a production concept was developed that covers the product development process from zinc die casting to the subsequent CNC machining - from a single source in our own company:
The high production depth with zinc die casting and CNC machining in-house ensures "a flexible and future-proof production process in which we take into account all the criteria relevant to parts, design, casting and production and can therefore supply our customers with a component that is both functional and cost-optimised and ready to install with consistent quality standards," concludes Sven Weustenhagen.
