Quality and performance of the Zamak foundry
The company OUTILLAGE PROGRESS specialises in pressure casting of Zinc alloys (Zamak).
These alloys have exceptionally good casting properties allowing very high precision parts with complex geometry to be obtained by injection.
Created in 1929, the company is set up at Nazelles-Négron (Amboise in the French department of Indre-et-Loire) and has four main workshops:
- A foundry shop with 13 high-power injection presses ranging from 5 to
240 tonnes.
