Drive technology - Castings from WESO

Drive technology is the general collective term for all technical systems that drive something.
Drive technology is available for different purposes and therefore in different designs.
There are also differences in terms of energy sources.

The possible applications are correspondingly large.
Typical areas of application for drive technology are the realization of motion processes, e.g:

  • Machining processes
  • Forming processes
  • Transport processes, conveyor belts
  • Positioning processes, theater stages, etc.
  • Positioning processes

Cast parts are used in different materials and weight classes in all the possible applications shown.
For over 20 years, WESO Aurorahütte has been supplying castings that meet the high demands of drive technology.

Our sophisticated production processes in the foundry in combination with the comprehensive quality assurance options promise the highest quality.
Continuous measuring cycles with 3D and tactile measuring machines, ultrasonic testing, dye penetrant testing and magnetic particle testing ensure the required level of quality for the cast parts.

Products in drive technology

For over 20 years, various cast parts for drive technology have been produced on WESO’s facilities.
These include gearbox housings, shaft-mounted gearbox housings, bearing housings, bearing supports and many other drive technology components.

All of these components are exposed to high thermal and mechanical loads.
A very low complaint rate in combination with continuous further development of the processes are the basis of the work at WESO.

Broad certification enables use in various branches of industry

Support in the design and development of cast parts in drive technology

Our sales staff and project management team are your competent contacts right from the start.
We offer comprehensive support in the development and series production of drive technology components.

The specialists from design, foundry technology, pattern making and master craftsmen from machining are bundled here as a team of experts for such tasks.
Standard CAD programs, software-supported mold filling and solidification simulation and
measurement are used to check the requirements for the cast components.

We also meet the high demands placed on the design and implementation of foundry models for drive technology products with our own model making department.
In this status, specialists from the field of mechanical processing are involved in the design of the models.
In this way, we ensure uncomplicated acceptance of the cast parts during the mechanical processing of components for drive technology.
