Alloy Enterprises
Alloy’s aluminum fabrication process enables customers to improve product performance without increasing costs or compromising on material properties.
IMPACT STORY
To ensure resilient supply chains and a robust domestic industrial base, the revival in domestic manufacturing must continue to accelerate for goods from semiconductors to heavy equipment. In this context, US aluminum die casting capacity has decreased by 36% in recent decades.
Alloy’s novel and proprietary additive manufacturing techniques allow for scalable, efficient, and modular aluminum part production to not only replace the lost capacity, but also unlock new design applications for this critical material. Alloy’s process represents on-demand fabrication with the cost and scale of die casting.
