choice
The preferred
choice for energy distribution
In energy distribution, aluminum castings are increasingly used. These systems are installed to supply energy reliably for decades without failure. The cast components are filled with gas or oil to prevent sparking. These parts must be especially gas-tight, pressure-resistant, and protected against high internal pressures. Leaky cast parts could result in critical infrastructure failures and environmental damage.
requirements
Only aluminum meets the technical requirements
Aluminum is corrosion-resistant, ensuring long service life of components in these harsh environments. Due to its high thermal conductivity, any generated heat is effectively dissipated, preventing overheating. Thanks to its high electrical conductivity, aluminum is an ideal material for energy distribution.
