The Thixo process

Accurate to within one degree
Thixotropic forming is a process related to die-casting that allows the continuous production of high-grade components from aluminum alloys. A crucial feature of this process is the thixotropic condition of the alloy. The alloy must reside in a closely defined range between the solid and liquid states. It is precisely for this purpose that we developed the ELOTHIX system, which is an automated line capable of cycle times of as little as 50 seconds using, for example, 5 Elothix units and the corresponding additional modules.
