At Ross, the process begins with you, setting performance criteria and budget requirements and selecting the ideal foundry methods through co-engineering.

Our metallurgists will help determine the best alloys to achieve your needs. Our aluminum alloy melting process filters the molten metal to remove oxides and inclusions. Continuous degassing techniques removes hydrogen gas porosity for the highest possible metal soundness.

Continuous controls throughout the processes typically result in products with greater dependability, higher performance and higher mechanical properties.
