About MWS
MWS Aluguss GmbH, based in Klagenfurt, specializes in aluminum casting and services the processes of sand casting, gravity die casting with sand cores, and low-pressure die casting. The company positions itself as a development partner, supporting projects from the design of complex components, through fixtures, tooling, and machining processes, up to the delivery of finished components. Sand cores are manufactured on its own core-shooting machines; furthermore, cores can be quickly produced via suppliers using 3D printing. Mechanical machining of the cast parts is part of its service portfolio and allows for short implementation times. Aluminum casting materials are primarily used in lightweight construction, where the strength-to-weight ratio and the physical properties of aluminum are critical. The focus is on serial production with high process reliability.

Materials & Processes
Aluminium
Light metal for components with a high strength-to-weight ratio, especially in lightweight construction.
Aluminum Casting Materials
Casting alloys based on aluminum for sand casting, die casting, and low-pressure die casting.
Sand Casting
Forming with lost molds for complex geometries, even for small and medium batch sizes.
Die Casting
Gravity casting in permanent metallic forms; voids are formed by sand cores.
Low-Pressure Die Casting
Quiet mold filling via low overpressure for high strength, ductility, pressure tightness, and weldability.
3D Printing of Sand Cores
Fast core production via suppliers for complex hollow geometries.
