Corporate Market and Prototype Factory

Integrated processes to create your projects with high quality and technology

RIO in the Corporate Market

We began serving the OEM corporate market – Original Equipment Manufacturer – in 1994 with parts for Mercedes-Benz. Since then, the portfolio has expanded a lot and today brands such as AGCO, Agrale, Cummins, MAN, MWM, Scania, Stara, Suspensys, Volvo, Vale, Valtra, Hidremec, among
others rely on our capacity and quality in product development.

For the railway market, we began supplying steel sleeper shoulders in 2011. Previously, we increased our portfolio by developing parts to service permanent lines, as well as manufacturing parts for locomotive traction engines. We also develop tools used in railway line maintenance, to further meet the needs of this market.

Our products are developed in compliance with the various international quality standards and certifications in the various metal alloys that these markets require.

And to offer agility as well as cost reduction in the development of new products, we use the manufacture of models with 3D printers in our prototype factory, using a 2D drawing of the part.

You can count on a
complete service at RIO

The processes are integrated, offering quick and accurate responses to your demands.

With humanized service, all our efforts and skills are to bring the best and complete solutions for your projects.

Our complete structure of material and dimensional laboratories evaluates quality and meets the most severe levels of part requirements. We have certifications such as VDA Certification and IATF Certification 16.946 to validate all projects.

The tradition and trust in our brand was built in the foundry field, with modern and intelligent processes, we produce parts from 0.010kg to 150kg (molding box 1,100x800x400 mm).

Our equipment allows us to offer an excellent mix of speed and high precision in the most varied machining operations, for parts of different dimensions, such as oversizes and items ranging from up to 1mm in Valve Guides and 2mm in Valve Seats.

We create and develop parts with all types of geometry. Our complete metrology and physical and chemical analysis laboratory ensures autonomy and speed at all stages. In technical processes, we use MAGMA technology to improve casting and EDGECAM technology for machining.

We are specialists in the development of metal alloys, always offering the best option and treatment for each application. There are more than 80 alloys and classes of materials in the portfolio.

With the prototype factory, you reduce the time and cost of developing your projects. We combine 3D technology with engineering simulation tools and cutting-edge equipment to deliver the best results.

Prototype Factory

Innovation through additive manufacturing

We have developed a process in which we use additive manufacturing, through 3D printing, to manufacture casting models, ensuring high quality and dimensional stability. Thus, you can reduce the Time to Market of your prototypes by more than 50%.

3D technology and processes: Prototypes are produced using our experience in the development of metal alloys and our technical casting know-how. We combine 3D technology with engineering simulation tools and cutting-edge machining equipment, offering agility and guaranteeing the shortest deadlines in the development of cast prototypes.

The quality of the prototypes is assured, as they are produced on the same lines and subjected to the same processes as current products for the OEM market.
