INDUSTRY NEWS/行業新聞 Materion Partners with Aristo Cast on Aluminum-Beryllium Line Materion Brush Beryllium & Composites, a Materion
Corp. company based in Elmore, Ohio, USA, has entered into a strategic manufacturing and marketing partnership with Aristo Cast Inc., Almont, Mich., USA, for its propri- etary AlBeCast aluminum-beryllium investment castings product line. Te two companies initiated their partnership in October 2013. Aristo Cast has received numerous awards for best in class magnesium castings from the American Foundry Society, the Investment Casting Institute, and the International Magne- sium Association. Leveraging its lightweight alloy investment casting experience, Aristo Cast provides Materion with a breakthrough shell technology that in qualification proved not only to improve casting quality, but dramatically reduce production costs of aluminum-beryllium investment castings. “Aristo Cast technology represents a game-changing devel-
opment for the production of AlBeCast,” said Lawrence Ryczek, vice president and general manager of Materion Brush Beryl- lium & Composites. “With the Aristo Cast shell technology, our expanded capability and world class casting team, we are confi- dent AlBeCast will capture new applications that weren’t pos- sible even two years ago,” he continued. “We are in qualification with a number of aerospace, defense and semiconductor firms seeking to capitalize on this alloy system and casting technology breakthrough. As previously announced, we are in qualification with Lockheed as a supplier for the F-35 Lightning II’s Electro- Optical Targeting System.” Jack Ziemba, president and owner of Aristo Cast added,
“Materion has the resources to grow the reinvigorated AlBe- Cast product line, and we look forward to working side by side with them to do it.” Te Aristo Cast partnership coincides with Materion’s
own new investment in casting technology, equipment and upgrades at its Elmore facility. Te operation offers custom- ers rapid prototyping and solidification modeling to provide investment cast parts with short lead times and competitive pricing. Aluminum-beryllium castings provide favorable cost/benefit advantages for technically demanding applica- tions requiring a combination of ultra-light weight, stiffness, mechanical stability and thermal properties.
Materion与Aristo Cast开展铝-铍合金生产合作 Materion集团成员之一、总部设在俄亥俄州埃尔 莫尔的Materion铍和复合材料公司，与位于密歇根州 阿尔蒙特的Aristo铸造公司，建立生产和销售战略伙 伴关系，共同运营一条铝铍合金精密铸件生产线。双 方的合作始于2013年10月。 Aristo铸造公司凭借其优质镁金属铸件已获美国铸 造协会、精密铸造研究所、国际镁业协会颁发的多个 奖项。基于其丰富的轻合金精密铸造经验，Aristo铸 造公司为Materion公司提供了突破性的壳体铸造技 术，并且这已被证明不仅能够提高铸件质量，而且可 大大减少铝铍合金铸件的生产成本。 “Aristo铸造技术是铝铍铸件生产的一项革命性开 发成果，”Materion 铍和复合材料公司副总裁兼总 经理Lawrence Ryczek说：“通过Aristo壳体铸造技 术、增强的生产能力和世界一流的铸造团队，我们有 信心不断扩展铝铍合金的应用领域，而这在两年前是 无法实现的。”他接着说：“我们有能力和资质为航 空航天、国防和半导体领域，提供合金铸件产品和突 破性的铸造技术。正如先前所公布的，我们已成为洛 克希德公司的合格供应商，为其提供F-35闪电II的光 电瞄准系统部件产品。” Aristo铸造公司的拥有者兼总裁Jack Ziemba补充 说，“Materion公司有丰富的经验和技术来拓展铝铍 合金铸件产品线，我们期待着和他们携手共进。” 双方的合作恰逢Materion公司实施一项在铸造技 术、设备和升级位于埃尔莫尔工厂方面的新投资。 此举可为客户提供快速成型和凝固建模技术，生产出 极短交货期和有价格竞争力的精密铸件。铝铍合金铸 件，对于超轻量、刚度、机械稳定性和耐热性的高技 术要求，具有成本和效益优势。
