High-Performance Aluminum Gravity Die Casting Solutions for the Energy Segment
We specialize in delivering bespoke aluminum-casting solutions for the energy sector. Our precision-engineered components are crucial for high-voltage applications worldwide, meeting the rigorous demands of the industry. As we understand the critical importance of safety in the energy sector, we offer complex modular designs.
Our advanced manufacturing processes, including heat treatment, robotic welding, assembly, and 100% leak detection, ensure the reliability and performance of our products. Even minor flaws can have serious consequences when transporting electricity, which is why we maintain stringent quality control throughout production. Our expertise covers a range of high-voltage components, including gasinsulated lines, gas-insulated switchgears, and instrument transformers.
World-renowned companies like Siemens Energy and Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen trust us as their partner for high-quality aluminum casting solutions.
JAI has extensive know-how in components for measuring transformers, high-voltage circuit breakers, gas-insulated switchgear, compensators, GIL cables, and more. What these components have in common is that they are safety-critical, requiring strict control, documentation, and certification.
Customer Case 1:
Re-design from welded steel structure to aluminum parts produced by gravity Die Casting
To optimize the measurement transformer, a welded steel structure was converted into a significantly lighter construction with aluminum parts made by die-casting.
In this context, we supported our customer in the energy sector with:
- Identification of potential optimization items/projects
- Input for decision-making (business case calculations)
- Testing for mechanical properties
- Various simulations for optimal design regarding function and mechanical properties
As a result, our customer in the energy sector achieved the following benefits:
- Weight reduction
- Reduced oil consumption (up to 30%) – cost-saving and environmentally friendly
- Improved cooling and product productivity
- Less assembly
- Improved surfaces and visual quality
- Improved corrosion protection without surface treatment
Customer Case 2:
Components in aluminum – from sand casting to die casting
JAI has extensive experience in helping our customers identify projects with a business case for replacing sand casting of aluminum components with gravity die casted part components. In doing so, we have provided value to our customers in the form of lower weight, better surface quality, improved mechanical properties, reduced machining, longer tool investment life – and, of course, a short payback period and annual savings.
Customer Case 3:
Several components re-designed into 1 component
In light of our extensive experience with very complex components and re-designing of parts, we have frequently helped our customers identify items that can be converted from multiple of parts into a single gravity die casted aluminum component. As a result, our customer has achieved savings due to less assembly work and generally handling fewer parts, less tool investments etc.
