Process designed to target best mechanical properties at bulkheads with different alternatives for blocks production:

• Low Pressure Filled: Bottom filled by pressurized N2 (NLPPS)
• Low Pressure Roll Over: Mould roll over to maximize properties at deck face (NLPSS)
• Gravity Roll Over
• Cosworth: Bottom filled by an electromagnetic pump

Process used for blocks, transmissions and structural components (including battery trays):

• Mould cavity is filled at high pressures. (Fill speed > 30 m/s)
• Produces thin walled castings
• High productivity and automation possible

Nemak-owned technology where the mould is gravity filled by the use of pouring ladle located at the mould:

• Cast of complex geometries
• Highest mechanical properties at combustion chambers
• Process also available for blocks

Technology where the mould is gravity filled by the use of a gating system. 

• Cast of complex geometries
• Rapid solidification rate, high mech properties at combustion chambers

When using this technology, mould is counter-gravity filled by Nitrogen injection:

• Cast of complex geometries and thin walls
• No turbulent filling, less oxides generation
• Highest mechanical properties at pan-rail

Casting and assembly technologies to produce e-motor and battery housings
