Die casting in China: Series quality with secure project management
Die cast parts from China offer attractive price advantages. However, many associate this with uncertainties in quality and communication. With us, it’s different: We combine the economic advantages of Asian manufacturing with technical security, German project supervision, and continuous quality control. This way, your component is not only produced more affordably but, most importantly, reliably.
Why die casting from China is economically interesting
Many companies choose die casting from China to reduce tooling costs, keep large series affordable, and deliver quickly. At the same time, problems often arise during implementation:
For example, there is a lack of technical feedback, clear responsibilities are missing, and the component quality remains unclear until it is too late. This is exactly where we step in. We speak your language, check your CAD data and accompany your project from the first idea to series delivery.
Produce safely in China with SBV Stahltechnik
We have affiliated plants in China. On-site, we always have a colleague who coordinates directly with our location in Germany. With us, there are no language barriers, no unclear responsibilities, and no unpleasant surprises in the container. Instead, there is complete documentation, traceable quality, and a contact person who takes care of everything.
Our strengths at a glance:
- A partner in Asia for cost-effective production of top parts. Technical advice on geometry, material selection, and design suitable for casting. You talk directly with specialists with us.
- Certified processes according to IATF 16949, ISO 9001
- Flexible project management with possible intermediate storage in Germany and demand-based delivery on call.
- We also manufacture pre-series parts and small series from a series-capable tool
Typical applications for aluminum die casting
We produce aluminum die-cast parts that are precisely tailored to the technical and functional requirements of our customers. From single parts to series, components are created that can be used reliably and procured economically.
Engine housings and covers
Dimensionally accurate housing parts with drilling preparations, sealing surfaces, and heat dissipation
Supports and mounts
Components with integrated reinforcements for structurally supporting tasks in vehicle or mechanical engineering
Heatsinks for electronics
Die-cast parts with defined cooling surfaces, fins, and attachment points
Connectors and adapters
Functional parts for assembly in plant construction or energy supply
Easy-to-assemble enclosures with clips or grooves
Enclosure parts with integrated latch and guide elements for easy assembly without mechanical processing
Our process: From the inquiry to series delivery
We use a multi-stage process to manufacture precision casting parts from stainless steel, steel, or aluminum. The starting point is a wax model that we encase with a ceramic mold. We pour the metal into this mold. The key steps:
Inquiry and data review
You send us your drawings and 3D data as well as information on the area of application, quantity & material. We evaluate whether the component is designed for manufacturability or if adjustments are necessary.
Technical consultation
Our casting specialists check geometry, material selection, and functional requirements. If necessary, we provide recommendations for optimizing the geometry or the appropriate aluminum alloy for your application.
Prototypes and pre-series
In aluminum die casting, prototypes are only feasible with a tool. Therefore, we produce initial pre-series parts directly from the production tool or from a specially simplified pre-series tool. This allows us to verify geometry, function, and process capability early on before series production starts.
Series production with our partner in Asia
Production is carried out through our partners in Asia. We take full responsibility for technical coordination, quality assurance, and logistical coordination. Thus, you receive your components reliably and on time from a single source.
Quality control and documentation
Before delivery, every cast part is inspected. So, you don’t just receive a component, but a secure system part with verified properties.

Why customers trust us with die casting in China
Many customers have already had bad experiences with direct sourcing from Asia: unclear communication, poor quality, long delivery times, or unplanned rework. We take these risks off your hands. Our customers appreciate the technical advice, the order basis under German law, and the fact that they get everything from a single source with us.
Our strength lies in making complex components possible. We show you what really works in die casting, find optimization potentials, and turn your idea into a finished, functional component.
Do you want to know if your part is suitable for die casting?
Then send us your CAD data or drawings. We check the technical feasibility, provide an honest assessment, and make you a concrete offer. Your contact person with us accompanies you personally from the initial inquiry to the series delivery.
