Molding

Our molding processes were developed with your needs in mind. We utilize:

  • Phenolic Urethane “No-Bake” Sand Molding
    This process incorporates production flexibility, minimal tooling costs, small to large run manufacturing quantities, and high-quality finishes on produced castings.
  • Ceramic Molding
    This process utilizes a special blend of sands, which undergo a specialized baking process that yields castings with dimensional stability and surface finishes similar to those obtained with the lost-wax process.

Always seeking to integrate quality and efficiency into our solutions, we also have a state-of-the-art thermal sand reclamation system for efficient sand recovery with minimal environmental impact and waste.

So what can we do for you?

Melting

Big project? Tough application? With our technical expertise in casting over 100 different high-alloy stainless steels and superalloys, and our five induction furnaces operating on two power supplies, we have the capabilities and team to meet your toughest requirements.

Our individual casting weights range from 2 pounds to 5,500 pounds. Induction furnaces provide excellent temperature control and flexibility in melting, with accurate, repeatable chemistry for all alloys.

Throughout our process, we have specialized capabilities, such as “Teapot” ladles used to pour metal into molds, producing clean, defect-free castings, controlling pouring rates, and maintaining accurate temperature control. Additionally, chemistries are assured through internal spectrographic measurements and computerized charge and final addition calculations to the heat. We’ve put rigor into our processes to yield top results for you.

Finishing

We’re pleased to offer high integrity in our finished products and to finish each casting to our customers’ requirements. Thanks to our exacting standards, process controls throughout the cleaning operations are designed to ensure that customer requirements are met, maintained, and delivered to the utmost quality.

Product assurance

Product quality is a top priority. Our efforts include an ANSI/ASQ/Q9001:2000 and ISO 9001:2015 Quality System, which are critical to our success. We are dedicated to implementing, maintaining, and managing a quality program that continues to advance and embrace all facets of our operational departments and extends to all customer requirements. The department is also responsible for alloy chemistries using computerized heat charges and internal spectrographic analysis. In addition, we are pleased to have a complete metrology and spectrographic laboratory dedicated to meeting our customers’ product assurance requirements.

Here are a few of our quality efforts:

  • All Temperform no-bake, ceramic, and shell molds feature gating systems developed using our CAD and solidification modeling techniques to deliver clean, sound castings.
  • Our specialized molding techniques, gating, and risering developments allow us to satisfy customer quality, reliability, and radiographic requirements.
  • Ensuring materials meet customer specifications and requirements.

Integrity. Ingenuity. Industrious.
