Discover the multi-stage working principle of the Gigapress, a revolutionary machine designed for large-scale manufacturing of aluminum parts. This video provides a detailed look at each step of the ...

Car components with doubled mechanical strength, higher fatigue resistance and improved energy absorption are the result of a revolutionary CSIRO heat treatment process for high pressure die casting ...

Conventional die castings can be made stronger using new, more environmentally friendly technologies developed by CSIRO. The two new technologies – a dynamic gating system and the 'ATM runner system' ...

The automotive industry has high hopes for the potential of large-scale casting, or megacasting technology. But the adoption of high-pressure die castings to replace assemblages of stamped parts ...

Gigacasting confers advantages such as improved car body stiffness, reduced manufacturing cost and reduced assembly time and cost. Credit: Idra Group. In September, Toyota unveiled a prototype of its ...

Recently, I was offered a 1997 Volkswagen Golf for the low, low price of free — assuming I could haul it away, as it suffered from a thoroughly borked automatic transmission. Being incapable of saying ...
