Die Casting Team

At American Precision Die Casting, we believe our team is the best in the business. Our people are dedicated to getting the job done, no matter what. Whether it’s for providing top-notch customer service in one of our strategic business units or our highly-qualified aluminum die casting machine operators maintaining a pristine safety record, we celebrate our people when they go above and beyond, delivering more than what’s expected. 

APDC Die Casting Team and Equipment

Having such a highly-skilled, agile team allows APDC to merge the strength of a major aluminum die casting manufacturer with the flexibility and personal attention you would expect from a small company. And because we know our equipment capabilities inside out, our delivery commitment to you is always based on first-hand knowledge rather than an estimate.

APDC’s highly-skilled machine operators and precision die casting machines consistently produce high-quality aluminum parts. With our experienced die casting team operating around the clock, you can expect your high-quality die cast products exactly when you need them.

APDC has a large and varied array of aluminum die casting equipment. Our range of die cast machines affords us an extensive production capacity, allowing us to be responsive to customers’ vision and production timelines.
