A low cost diecasting service has been introduced by Rencol, providing manufacturers with a cost-effective alternative to machining. Applicable for volumes ranging from prototype samples through to mass production, the service is available for aluminium, zinc, special alloys and other materials on request.
By taking advantage of Rencol's established and highly reliable supply chain based in China, the company is able to deliver a fast, high quality and very cost-effective service. Minimum order quantities can be as low as only 300 pieces and even lower quantities for large castings.
The company also offers full machining and component assembly services, including mould making, assembly, surface finishing, drilling, tapping, sanding and related operations.
"We provide low cost sourcing from China without the risk," said Tony Swash, Rencol's sales and marketing director. "By using our own factories in China, we supply first class quality at extremely competitive prices."
Rencol's group facilities in China are based in Shanghai and Ningbo. Its mature and efficient supply chain operation has nearly 30 English-speaking personnel in their Shanghai office specialising in design, engineering, quality and logistics. They also have quality and engineering personnel operating permanently in all of their manufacturing facilities.
Free tooling can be offered on high volume production jobs, or if the component is attractive enough to be added to Rencol's own range of products. Dedicated stock is held against customer call-off at the company's Bristol warehouse.
