SwePart Verktyg has received an order for completion of 8 large trimming dies
for stamping of door inner to a leading European automobile manufacturer. Our
customer is a large system supplier in Germany and the order is valued at close
to 5 MSEK. 

This order was negotiated by Camito's new sales and marketing organization,
which has been the NovaCast group's joint marketing resource within the
automotive industry since October 2008. NovaCast has not cut back on sales and
marketing resources despite the difficult market situation and this order is a
further result of its genuine, long-term presence on the market.


The contract includes machining and completion of entire dies. The order
confirms our  strategic focus on offering solutions from castings to complete
dies. This deal further strengthens our position as partner to world-leading
system suppliers within the automotive industry. Delivery will take place during
the summer. 

NovaCast Technologies, listed on the OMX Nordic Exchange (NCAS B), develops and
markets enhanced castings for the production of car body parts, as well as
software for methoding, simulating and process control for more efficient
production processes to the global automotive industry and its subcontractors.
With the Camito technology enhanced castings are manufactured in one solid piece
for the production of dies for forming   stamping automotive body components in
a considerably shorter time than traditional dies. Through die manufacturer
SwePart the group has expertise within the whole value chain for the production
and sales of stamping dies.
