Casting pit upgrade

Casting pit upgrade

AluMore in conjunction with their partner company, Dynamic Concept successfully completed an upgrade to the casting pit at Sierra Aluminum in Riverside, California. Following 3‐D laser inspection of the casting pit, a new guide rail system was installed along with a new casting platen and cylinder mounting system. The project, intended to improve the straightness of the cast product was successfully executed with the collaboration  between  Dynamic  Concept  Engineers  and  the  Foundry  Maintenance  team  at  Sierra  and  restarting of production was achieved three days ahead of schedule.
