The ThixoForming process offers an opportunity to manufacture high density, complex injection molded components from magnesium alloys medium to high volume applications. the process offers excellent part detail, metallurgial structure and tolerance capability when compared to convential die casting. ThixoForming also offers added strength and thin wall capability when compared to plastic injection molded applications.


ADVANTAGES TO THIXOFORMING:

  • Dimensional Precision
  • Lightweight: 33% Lighter than Aluminum
  • Complex Net Shapes
  • Low Porosity
  • High Volume
  • Thin Wall Capability
  • Variety of Finishes Avalaible
  • Competitive Pricing
  • 10-20 Time Stiffer than Plastic
  • Superior Corrosion Resistance than Aluminum
  • EMI/RFI Shielding

Thixomolding is a green process. We use no greenhouse gases unlike competing processes.
