Welcome to our 19th Gold Nugget, where we interview Philipp Hettich from Laubinger+Rickmann. In this episode, we discuss the impact of Gigacasting's geometric distortion on the car production line and how to manage it with straightening. We also discuss what factors increase or decrease the complexity of straightening.

In the further discussion, you will learn about risk mitigation strategies in large projects and how the values of the average car user changed. This will be especially hard on certain European car manufacturers that are lagging behind in usability.

This podcast is about how to make money in the foundry industry. Is there any money, or is it just squeezing everyone to save cents? So, we're not talking about properties, microstructures, atoms, or casting parameters. We want to speak to everyone in the industry.

We'll see you in the comment section, or you can hear us again on May 9th with our next interview!

Best regards,

Staffan and Fabian
