The global auto Industry is moving towards improving fuel efficiency by reducing the weight of vehicle. Replacement of heavier parts made from cast iron and steel by lighter aluminium parts is the future. These aluminium parts are now further being redesigned to achieve lower weights.

The Theme of this year's Conference ‘Lightweighting of Aluminium Castings' is therefore very appropriate and timely. Experts of international repute will present papers during the Conference sharing their knowledge and experience. Topics like - Light weighting by product re-engineering and Change of production process, Die casting Technology for Structural Parts, and Advantage of using Vacuum Technology for light weighting PDC Parts are a few presentations that the attendees can look forward to.

Along with this, the latest technologies available to die casters can be seen in Machines, Accessories and Foundry equipment on show at the exhibition. Industry counterparts connected to design, development, manufacture and use of aluminium castings will greatly benefit from the exhibition and the conference.

"With the accelerated growth of the Automotive, Electronics, Electrical Appliances, Mechanical and Electrical Instruments and Toy Industry in India, Alucast 2014 is just the right platform for the industry to converge and get ready for the unprecedented boost that it will witness in the near future. With Alucast 2014, we wish to create a global forum for the Indian Die Casters to showcase Brand India to the World," said T. Parabrahman, Trustee, Aluminium Casters' Association of India.

Speaking on the occasion, Sonia Prashar, Managing Director, NuernbergMesse India said, "We are glad to be the event producers for Alucast India and hope to further contribute to the success of this event with our expertise of EUROGUSS -International Trade Fair for Die Casting from Germany. The show in its 6th edition has emerged as a convergence platform for the key stakeholders of the industry and is set to take it to a whole new level."
