There is more to producing a quality die casting than meets the eye of even the most discerning purchasing team.
Our quality philosophy at BSC Die Casting and Finishing is to fully understand our customer needs and manage those expectations from the outset. Starting with feasibility, we will guide you through the process steps.
Considering component design for manufacture at each stage, whether that be for post casting machining or specialist surface finishing, you can be sure we can advise on all the best practices to give you the finished quality component you are looking for.
Early input with just some of the following can save your design and manufacturing team hours of heartache when in full production:
- Material choice – strength verses weight, forming or finishing.
- Component design best practices for die casting – radii, drafting, injection and ejection
- Post process choices – machining, pressing, joining and assembly
- Surface treatments and finishes – hand or mechanical polish, bead blasting powder coating and plating
- Programme life / volumes decisions – tooling type, impression numbers and yield expectations
We pride ourselves on offering some of the best up front engineering help.
With a quality service comes a quality die casting.
Quality Management
BSC is accredited to the ISO9001:2015 standard for Quality Management Systems and implements these key principles for control and continuous improvement across the plant.
Our proven internal processes continually reduce risk and help to ensure we can support customers who require raw material and process traceability, tight porosity standards, control of small dimensional tolerances and castings that can be highly polished for decorative finishes.
Often not everything that is important to a customer can be conveyed on a technical drawing or specification, especially with decorative products. Therefore all new products are reviewed by the quality team to ensure control plans, inspection records and verification methods are aligned with what our customer needs as part of our New Product Introduction program.
All of our raw material is sourced from renowned local suppliers. In consultation with you we will choose the right material for the job. Each alloy has properties to suit different applications and requirements. All of our raw material is received with a certificate of conformity and stored for traceability. For more information about the alloys we use to cast and their properties click here.
Our new information management system is also utilised to ensure the correct information gets to the people who matter the most, the people actually making your parts. This system allows us to ensure manufactured product is accompanied through the process by the supporting documentation and previous process learning is not lost.
