The most complete Gigacasting intelligence platform
Track every ≥6,000t die casting machine ordered and installed worldwide, every vehicle model adopting the technology, and the design strategies behind each casting — updated continuously, with analytical reports that turn raw data into decisions.
Built on a simple rule: announced ≠ installed. Every number is a verified machine on the floor — not a press release.

The two forecast reports on their own cost €500.
The Annual plan is €649 — for about €150 more you also get a full year of the live database and the Database Report.
What's in The Gigacasting Database
Machine database — Every OEM and supplier that ordered large die casting machines (≥6,000t) and magnesium Thixomolding machines (≥5,000t)
Capacity mapping — For every company: machine size, quantity, location, manufacturer, materials
Order vs. installed split — Ordered, installed, paused, delayed, or cancelled — per machine
Production use — What each installed machine is actually used for, at each location
Vehicle database — Every vehicle model in the world adopting Gigacasting
Future platforms — Upcoming vehicles and platforms with release dates and casting details
Production data — Assembly location, SOP, monthly and annual output per model
Every database subscription includes The Gigacasting Database Report — a structured analysis of the global installed base: the order-to-install gap, machine size distribution, supplier landscape, China vs. the West, rear vs. front underbody design anatomy, and OEM strategies.
This report interprets the database. It does not include market forecasts — those are exclusive to the Annual plan or available as standalone purchases below.

Gigacasting Forecast Report: North America, Europe, Japan & Korea
Forecasts the structural die-casting market to 2035 across four regions, driven by the eight OEMs that define adoption outside China: Tesla, Volvo, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Nissan. Starts from the 2026 reality: 32 verified installed machines vs. 54 announced — a ~59% install rate.
Base, low, high, and hyper-scale scenarios · Front underbody as the capacity multiplier · 2026 reality checks: cancellations, delays — and why the technology survives when vehicle programs don't.
China is the center of gravity — and the center of the overcapacity problem. A machine-by-machine read on the fleet: 104 installed machines (~68% of the global base) running at roughly 19% utilization. Maps ordered vs. installed, phantom orders, which OEMs actually build gigacast vehicles, magnesium adoption, and the outlook through 2030.
Every figure in our reports is sourced from The Gigacasting Database — verified machines, not press-release announcements. A taste of the analysis (full figures inside the reports):

Who's behind the data
I'm Luca Greco — industrial engineer, market analyst and reporter, and the person who tracks every 6,000+ ton die casting machine in the world, one by one. Industry Arsenal exists because the gigacasting story is buried in false assumptions and expectations from medias and financial institutions. Every record here is checked against production reality before it earns a place in the database.
Frequently asked questions
Who is this for?
Supply chain managers, R&D engineers, die casting suppliers, investors, and consultants who need verified gigacasting data — not aggregated news.
What's the difference between Quarterly and Annual?
Both include full database access and the Database Report. Annual adds both Forecast Reports (Western Markets + China), future report updates, and saves 18% vs. four quarterly payments.
Can I buy a forecast without the database?
Yes. Each report is available standalone at €250.
How do I access everything?
Database subscribers log in at industryarsenal.com/database — no downloads, no software, sort and filter directly in your browser. Standalone reports are delivered as a document after purchase.
How is payment handled?
Securely through Stripe. Subscriptions renew automatically and you can cancel any time from your account.
