High-q-cast® Aluminum Casting

High-pressure, Low Porosity Aluminum die-casting

Automotive structural components, traditionally the domain of wrought steel or welded sheet steel, have been targeted for replacement with weldable and heat-treatable aluminum high pressure die castings. High-Q-Cast, from BDW, is a comprehensive system for aluminum die-casting.

Visi-Trak is the sole representative for BDW's High-Q-Cast in North and South America.

High-Integrity Aluminum Die-casting

  • High Margin light-weight automotive structural components.
  • Minimize gas entrapment to less than 0.5%
  • Precision Control over every aspect of velocity & pressure.
  • Low impact means less flash & fewer production delays.
  • Amazing Ductility and strength with custom alloys.
  • Heat treating & welding with no blistering or deformation.
