Alcumet Inc., Advances Aluminum Casting Technology for Aerospace, Defense, Industries
Alcumet Incorporated, a provider of precision Aluminum Casting Technology has acquired new technology and equipment to provide an industry leading level of aluminum investment casting for industries across the country.
- (1888PressRelease) December 08, 2010 - Londonderry, NH - Alcumet Incorporated, a leading investment casting manufacturer in New Hampshire has recently announced acquisition of technology, equipment, and talent that allows the casting foundry to more effectively provide aluminum investment casting for the aerospace and defense industries.
While Alcumet provides aluminum investment castings for an extremely wide variety of customers, the company's devotion to continually upgrading both casting and testing equipment has had a serious impact on the level of quality available for customers in the aerospace, defense, and munitions industries.
As Alcumet's C.E.O., Russell Wilmarth says, "We use advanced steam autoclaves, furnaces, and state of the art heat treating and surface finishing technology - but that's just during the aluminum casting process." Wilmarth continues, "We also shine when it comes to quality testing for aluminum investment castings."
Wilmarth explains that Alcumet goes far beyond industry standards when it comes to quality control. "These industries can't afford less than perfect, so we use Fluorescent Penetration Inspection - which is a non-destructive process that looks for surface flaws invisible to the human eye."
Wilmarth continues that Alcumet uses additional non destructive technology (NDT) to ensure that aluminum investment castings are flawless in their quality and uniformity. "We also use X-ray to detect flaws beneath the surface of the casting, as well as a spectrometer to ensure the correct consistency of every aluminum investment casting lot."
By combining these extensive quality control measures, Alcumet is capable of ensuring consistent and cost efficient levels of perfection for industries that can't afford anything less than perfection.
Alcumet Incorporated is a precision investment casting foundry located in Londonderry, New Hampshire. They provide investment casting in a number of copper and aluminum alloys for a variety of industries across the country.
