Process Technology
SeAH Aerospace and Defense secures unrivaled expertise and competitiveness regarding high-strength aluminum alloy and forged products, and it produces and supplies the widest range of aluminum alloy products in the Republic of Korea.
Casting
Casting
The casting process is composed of the melting, alloying, component analysis, degassing, casting, and homogenization procedures. In addition to alloys that facilitate all industrial specifications with1XXX~7XXX, customer tailored alloys are also produced to supply extrusion billets as well as large casting billets at various sizes.

03
Homogenization equipment
The homogenization equipment is made up of one 25-ton unit and one 15-ton unit, and it performs billet homogenization.
Extrusion
Extrusion
Extrusion production is possible as rods, rectangular members, and section members in the extrusion process. Extrusion molds are produced independently and through corrections and management, optimal extrusion conditions are established and managed to have outstanding metallic structures.

02
Customized production
Minimum of DIA9 to maximum DIA144.8 rods can be produced. In addition, rectangular members, section members, and tube members can be produced upon orders.
Solution
Thermal treatment
The thermal treatment process is composed of the basic process that meet specifications according to the requests of customers and follow-up processes such as imprint, calibration, and cutting. In particular, it produces materials with stable and outstanding strength through the best thermal treatment processing management abilities. It manufactures products at sizes of DIA12.7~DIA66.7 based on rod materials through the imprinting process.
