Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Australian Foundry Institute (AFI) foundry tour of G.James and Cheras Aluminium Casting on Thursday 8 October.

The tour provided a unique opportunity to explore Australia's advanced manufacturing capabilities, with delegates gaining insights into aluminium extrusion, fabrication, finishing technologies and specialised die-casting operations.

We hope you enjoyed experiencing the different stages of aluminium production and learning more about the innovative processes and precision engineering behind these operations.
