We produce die-casting dies of high quality and precision thanks to our cutting-edge machinery park and know-how of our qualified team.
The Customers at SCS are assisted at every stage, from the development of the project to the delivery of the molds then tested and ready to be used.
The Customer is our main concern, we listen to requests and with the support of all departments we project and develop the best solutions for every mold.
Our machineries are able to produce big molds, to the maximum of 55 Tons.
We produce molds for a variety of different usages, throughout these years we became specialized in technologic advanced automotive and industrial usage sectors.
We offer our Customers the possibility to perform periodical program of revision and repairing for the damaged molds.
Careful attention to the development and innovation, experience and reliability are some of the reasons why our Customers choose us.
SCS has developed projects with the main TIER1 and TIER2 suppliers of
During our designing we support our Customers in every single stage of the mold process development, through a co-engineering service which aims to obtain an exceptional product in terms of quality and price which also satisfies efficiently the companies ‘requests.
From our study of feasibility until our last test, each project we develop follows a quality cycle based on control and continuous checks and constant upgrades with the Customer.
Through the feasibility study we evaluate with close cooperation of the Customer all the possible technical solutions, taking into consideration the characteristics of the material and its usage to assure an ideal molding stage.
The co-engineering is a consolidated approach in our company which leads to bigger integration on the phases of the process. The different productive sectors contribute in the planning stage, optimizing time and cost of realization of the product and preventing problems which may occur during the working process.
Reverse engineering allows Customers projecting a mold starting from an existing product already used in production. The die casting mold provided by the Customer is scanned and measured to be made into a 3D CAD model.
Through the usage of laser, touch probes and photogrammetry it is possible to obtain information to duplicate the mold. With reverse engineering we are able to accomplish a solid mathematical model and suitable for the production of the mold.
Once the project is developed, the productive stage starts, with the realization of the mold according to the specifications identified together with the Customer.
Our construction department is able to produce die-casting dies with the maximum weigh of 55 tons.
These are the main stages we follow for the creation and accomplishment of the molds:
All the material used for the realization of the molds are submitted to many tests and quality control. Products which overcome checks and controls can proceed.
Once the raw steel is received, the processes of squaring and flattening the molding parts and all the other necessary components start.
When the block is squared the drilling stage starts, including the implementation of the cooling system. The cooling system is an important component for a precise quality molding.
Drilling stage is over then the blocks are transferred to the roughing department where rough milling and turning of the figure prints are performed.
The small blocks, the inserts and other cavity parts are thermal treated by certified and qualified suppliers to obtain molds with high characteristics while molding metal, as to exemplify: better hardness.
After the thermal treatment the molding parts are submitted to the finishing milling operation. At the end of this operation details appear dimensionally finished and sent to the quality control.
The finished details are submitted to the dimensional control through laser scan in which cutting-edge instruments are used to evaluate the piece dimensions, relating them to the developed mathematics.
We test every die before delivering, this way the Customer will receive a mold working perfectly well and ready to be used in the productive cycle.
The components of the mold are assembled together to verify their perfect functioning. With the support of the mold test press sealing of the mold is tested, checking strategic points with centesimal indicator and Prussian blue.
Mold then completely assembled, we perform another laser scan to confirm the dimensional compliance of the mold.
Each component of die-casting tool is submitted to functional tests to verify the quality and certify coherence with Customer need. To be specific we execute: cold and hot control of thermoregulation circuit for the various parts with a temperature of about 100°, cylinder tightness controls up to the pressure of 260 bars and dimensional checks with appropriate reports we supply to the Customers.
With forty years of experience and thousands of molds produced, we have become the reference point for many companies that need high performance die-casting tools. We cooperate actively in co-engineering with the Customers, developing the preliminary project so that we can assure the performance of the mold and prevent eventual future problems.
In order to keep total control of quality and precision of the die-casting dies the company follows very defined phases.
