WE ARE THE CASTINGS EXPERTS
No matter the industry or the application, we are committed to meeting your casting requirements. Our practice of ongoing investments into the latest foundry technologies has provided; shorter lead times, high repeatability, and lower costs, allowing us to provide you with the best total value.
Engineering Technology
By utilizing PTC Creo Parametric modeling software (formerly Pro/Engineer) as well as Solid Cast and Flow Cast simulation software our engineers are able to accurately quote your industrial components. Each new product starts with the development of a solid model of the casting and the gating system in PTC Creo Parametric. The solid models are then imported into Solid Cast and Flow Cast. These solidification simulators will identify directional solidification and mimic the path of molten metal to identify flow characteristics and reduce turbulence to promote defect free castings. This stringent engineering process allows us to analyze each casting prior to production to ensure the highest quality parts.
Chemical Analysis
Using our in house SPECTROLAB metal analyzer, we are able to test the chemistry of every heat of metal we pour. This allows us to use a variety of different charging materials and make additions when necessary to meet the exact chemical specification you require.
Foundry Degassing Unit
We are the first US based foundry to utilize the newest metal treatment and gas analyzing technology developed in Europe. The Foundry Degassing Unit allows us to control the real time hydrogen levels of our aluminum alloys directly within the molten metal. A few advantages of this automated process include; improved surface finish, reduction of hard inclusions, increased tensile strength, and reproducible results.
