Technology
Cast house technology at Hindalco-Almex Aerospace Limited (HAAL)
is based on Almex's proprietary CASTRIGHT IITM casting
methodology and LARSTM, in-line aluminium purification
system.
CASTRIGHT IITM is a premium accuracy billet and
ingot casting machine utilising PLC programme operation, while
LARSTM operation is based on the proven principle
of high-energy diffusion and chemically-driven mass transfer.
LARSTM has over 75 per cent degassing efficiency
and over 99 per cent inclusion removal efficiency.
HAAL will also be equipped with an R&D cast house for
alloy development work. Small production runs of 1 tonne per
casting will be undertaken at this facility. Aluminium lithium
alloys will also be cast here.
This facility will be a scaled down version of a full-fledged
cast house. Development work for new chemical compositions
for several aerospace applications will be undertaken at this
facility.
