What is Oculatus
The Oculatus Team is an experienced group of technical aluminum experts. We bring a unique breadth to our consulting experience not offered elsewhere. From idea conception, testing, and worldwide launch; we have lived the development cycle and implementation schedule that the metals industry needs.
Why Us?
Innovation and Development
Our development experience is grounded in the invention and commercialization of single-piece DualJet™ AirSlip™ billet molds, LHC™, SplitJet™, VariMold™, and Fusion™ technologies. With more than 70 issued patents and filings in the U.S. alone, we bring proven technical depth and practical experience to help customers develop new innovations and implement them successfully at scale.
Casthouse Experience
Having completed more than 300 equipment start-ups across the casting sector, there is very little in a casthouse that we have not encountered firsthand. Whether you are commissioning a new alloy, introducing new equipment, or seeking to improve as-cast yield and process stability, we provide experienced, practical guidance from start-up through steady-state operation.
Recycling Expertise
Aluminum is infinitely recyclable, but how recycling is executed—and into which products—can be the difference between sustained profitability and structural loss.
We have led the design and/or installation of more than two million tonnes of aluminum recycling capacity worldwide, supporting projects across primary substitution, closed-loop recycling, and high-recycled-content products.
Whether you are at the beginning of your recycling journey or looking to optimize an existing operation, we help clients make informed decisions on technology selection, scrap identification and testing, and capacity and recycled-content determination. Our approach ensures that scrap quality, process capability, and end-product requirements are aligned—so recycling targets are technically achievable, economically sound, and scalable.
