Precision casting laboratory for magnesium, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals
In the precision casting laboratory, intricate magnesium implants, which can be used as bone substitute materials for larger bone defects, are cast close to their final shape. The precision casting process allows for the optimal use of biocompatible magnesium alloys for this application, offering high design flexibility, accuracy, and surface quality that cannot be achieved with other manufacturing methods. Additionally, non-ferrous metals such as bronzes or low-melting alloys like tin-bismuth are processed here for technical applications.
