Casting
Casting is a foundational manufacturing process for producing complex, high-performance metal components with exceptional structural integrity and dimensional precision.
At Linamar, advanced metallurgy, precision tooling, and tightly controlled manufacturing processes enable the production of lightweight and high-strength castings designed to meet the demanding performance requirements of mobility, industrial, and emerging technology applications.
Casting at Linamar
Our casting capabilities span aluminum and ductile iron processes, allowing us to optimize materials, geometry, and manufacturing efficiency for each application. Through advanced die casting and permanent mold technologies, we are able to produce complex shapes, thin-wall structures, and integrated components at high volumes while maintaining consistent quality and mechanical performance.
Integrated engineering, simulation, and process control enable Linamar to support customers from concept through production, delivering cast components optimized for strength, weight reduction, manufacturability, and cost efficiency.
