Aluminium foundry near Saint-Fons

Many industrial companies need aluminium parts at short notice:
- in the form of prototypes made of light alloys before larger-scale production,
- in the form of mechanical parts in small or medium series in order to supply either their assembly or mounting lines, or their stocks of supplies or spare parts.

In the industrial prototyping sector, AB Fonderie's know-how allows :
- to verify the performance and functionality of future parts as well as their reliability and quality,
- to apprehend the financial and technical feasibility of their future manufacture.

This need for expertise is as valid for unique pieces as for pieces produced in a few copies.

As far as mechanical parts are concerned, they must be designed and manufactured with great precision to optimize the production process of industrial companies in all sectors. The techniques of aluminum casting allow the realization of parts of great precision.

To use AB Fonderie's services is to work with a group of companies made up of 3 different entities, each of which offers the others the benefit of diversified skills and technologies for the manufacture of aluminium alloy parts. It also means cooperating with a team of 50 serious and attentive experts who demonstrate responsiveness, professionalism and know-how accumulated since 1999. It also means taking advantage of efficient and personalized technical solutions, with support from A to Z and delivery of parts after a maximum period of 6 weeks.

Gravity die-casting

Gravity die casting is a process used by AB Foundry to supply aluminum and other light alloy parts to our customers. It consists of filling a die with a metal alloy in a liquid state solely by gravity. Also known as drop filling, this process takes place under the pressure of the weight of the alloy cast directly into the downspouts of the mold to fill its cavity.

Gravity die-casting has several advantages:
- production capacities in large series at high rates,
- a fast and high precision molding of the parts with a certain invariability of their dimensions,
- important shaping possibilities for complex shaped parts (external and internal) and very small thickness,
- the production of molded parts with very high mechanical characteristics, due to the optimized cooling speed of the metal shells,
- a process that simplifies and minimizes the necessary machining operations,
- low melting points and preserve the shell mold for the production of light alloy parts.

The technique of gravity casting can only be achieved with the know-how of workshops like ours. AB Fonderie can manufacture aluminium alloy parts for industrial companies in a wide range of sectors:
- parts for urban furniture,
- supplies for buildings,
- parts for the energy sector,
- parts for the transport sector,
- household goods,
- sports and leisure facilities,
- small gardening materials and equipment,
- capital goods for industry,
- decorative objects.
