Shelmet’s Expertise Saved the Day

Before Shelmet, this part required a multiple handling process and machining. While the part used 356 aluminum and looked simple, it was actually quite complicated due to the square interior. The extensive machining required to produce the end result was extremely costly and time consuming.

Shelmet changed all that by using investment casting. As a result of our expertise in aluminum the casting was precisely what the customer specifications required. This was accomplished at a savings of time and money due to eliminating the necessity of conventional machining.
