Check out our latest blog and learn about how the CNC team at CWM utilizes two FANUC America Corporation Robots to help improve quality and save time! https://cwmdiecast.com/2021/07/22/equipment-highlight-fanuc-robots/

We are at a breaking point when it comes to overproducing plastics, but it's not too late to turn things around. Check out this quick Environmental Webinar to learn about the advantages of using easily recyclable materials like aluminum, magnesium, or zinc instead of plastic.

We are starting a new blog series highlighting the various machinery that our team uses on a daily basis! Check out our first installment about the Energy Efficient StrikoMelter Furnace from StrikoWestofen Group In 2014, CWM replaced our old reverberatory furnace from the 1970s with a modern stackmelter aluminum furnace, and it was well worth the investment! https://cwmdiecast.com/2021/02/10/equipment-highlight-investment-energy-efficient-furnace-pays-off/

Automakers are increasingly turning to die casting due to its combination of excellent mechanical and physical properties at an attractive cost. In addition to weight reduction, high-pressure die casting is also environmentally friendly. Plus, die casting offers built-in EMI/RFI shielding with high thermal conductivity, which is ideal for automotive electronic components.

Take a deep dive with CWM’s Jody Scollard in our latest Webinar! In it, you'll find out which automotive electronic components make sense for die casting based on CWM-specific case studies. You'll also learn about CWM’s history, our value-added operations, and whether or not die casting makes sense for your next project.

This webinar is a unique and comprehensive overview of die cast dies as fully functioning units, including the names and functions of the many parts within a die cast die. The information in this webinar will prepare decision makers to have a detailed conversation with the die caster about the initial investment of a die cast die and its components, which will ultimately translate to optimal part design and quality parts.

We are proud to announce the re-launch of our company website, www.cwmdiecast.com! Take a quick walkthrough of our new website and our subscription-free Die Cast Design Center.

This webinar utilizes a unique approach to selecting a die cast alloy... an in-depth investigation of several hand-picked case studies which are manufactured in each alloy classification. These die cast case studies cover a wide spectrum of industries and support the benefits of each alloy throughout this presentation. Cost analysis/breakdown, design considerations, and properties of the different alloys are also included in this webinar. 49 minutes.

This webinar discusses the benefits of using high pressure die casting in the medical device industry.

Several topics are covered in detail, such as choosing an alloy, the importance of surface finishes, converting to die casting from other manufacturing processes, quality inspection methods, and more! Our presenter will talk about several CWM case studies and how they exemplify the experience in success and the breadth of capabilities that Chicago White Metal has to offer when it comes to high pressure die casting.

Presents the important factors that can affect the outcome of the final appearance of your die cast component when its surface finish is a critical issue. This narrated webinar will aid an understanding of the various finish options, and how their uses and limitations can make the difference between successful product development and costly results. 49 minutes.

Presentation to aid efficiency, functionality and cost savings in the design and production of custom die castings. This narrated webinar focuses on helping effectively capitalize on today's advanced die casting capabilities to improve performance and lower the costs of their custom components. 1 hour.
