IM CASTING: Innovation, Automation, and Sustainability in Aluminum Die-Casting

Continuous innovation, advanced automation, and uncompromising quality remain the core pillars of IM CASTING, a trusted partner for high-demanding sectors requiring strict manufacturing standards: from automotive (70% of core business) to premium furniture (15%), as well as advanced industries such as aerospace and telecommunications.

Major investments in automation and production capacity

To support growth and create maximum flexibility in production, IM CASTING has carried out an extensive investment and modernisation programme over the past four years.

A total of eight presses have been replaced, and a new 2,500-tonne press was recently installed. The company now operates 18 fully automated, high-efficiency robotic die-casting cells. Infrastructure and production space are also already prepared for further expansion.

The company has also expanded its CNC machining capacity. Nine advanced CNC machining centres have been installed for five new strategic projects, enabling IM CASTING to offer complete and integrated component processing under one roof.

Surface finishing has also been further automated through robotic shot blasting and an integrated in-house vibratory finishing department.

More efficient melting with reduced emissions

Sustainability and energy efficiency are an important part of IM CASTING’s continued development. As part of this investment, the company has strengthened its alloy melting department with a new holding furnace designed to receive liquid metal directly.

The new solution supplies 70% of the die-casting presses while eliminating emissions from furnace melting. In this way, IM CASTING combines more efficient production with a reduced carbon footprint.
