The most complete aluminium casting supply chain in the UK.
Four casting processes. In-house CNC machining. Magmasoft simulation. NDT inspection. CMM metrology. All from our single site in Wednesbury - one supplier, fully accountable.
The only UK foundry with all four aluminium casting processes.
High Pressure Die Casting
The highest-volume aluminium casting process - tight tolerances, fast cycle times, on our 800-tonne machine. For complex, thin-walled components at scale.
Explore HPDC →
Gravity Die Casting
Superior surface finish and structural integrity. Permanent mould casting for medium-volume components that demand mechanical performance.
Explore GDC →
Low Pressure Die Casting
Complex geometries, superior mechanical properties, minimal turbulence during fill. The right process for strength-critical applications.
Explore LPDC →
Sand Casting
From prototype to production. Low tooling cost for low volumes - and the ideal route to validate geometry before committing to die casting tooling.
Explore Sand Casting →Cast and machined. By the same team.
25 CNC machines. 5-axis capability. Fully finished components delivered to drawing - no managing multiple sub-contractors, no tolerance mis-matches between cast and machined dimensions.
Explore machining →Beyond casting. The technical capability behind the component.
Magmasoft Casting Simulation
We model fill and solidification before a die is cut - resolving porosity and shrinkage risk at the cheapest point in the development cycle.
NDT Inspection
Dye-penetrant testing and X-ray inspection capability, in-house. For components where subsurface integrity is a requirement, not an option.
CMM Metrology
Coordinate measuring machine inspection in-house. Precise, documented, repeatable - from first article through to production batches.
Prototyping
Sand cast prototypes designed to be geometrically compatible with HPDC production - validate your component before committing to tooling investment.
Alu-HP1 Proprietary Alloy
Alucast-developed alloy delivering mechanical properties comparable to SG Iron 420:12 - enabling lightweighting where conventional aluminium alloys can't.
Sub-Assembly
Full assembly capability in development as part of our Aston University servitization programme - one supplier for an even more complete finished component.
Certified. Registered. Awarded.
IATF 16949:2016
Automotive-grade quality management - the highest international standard for automotive supply chain quality, applied across every sector we serve.
ISO 9001:2015
Quality management system certification - independently audited processes, consistent output, documented evidence at every stage.
ISO 14001
Environmental management certification. Backed by active EOL aluminium recycling research in partnership with leading academic institutions.
JOSCAR
Registered on the Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register - the recognised pre-qualification standard for the UK defence and aerospace supply chain.
Gold Kitemark
Engineering Apprenticeships Excellent Employer. The Gold and Silver Kitemark standards recognise the best employers of engineering apprentices - Alucast holds Gold.
Manufacturing Assembly Network
MAN membership - a consortium of 13 UK manufacturers covering complementary engineering disciplines, extending our capability when projects demand it.
Midlands Aerospace Alliance
Member of the Midlands Aerospace Alliance - the representative trade body for the region's aerospace and defence supply chain.
