Metal Casting Capabilities
Choosing a design and metal alloy is just a start. We at Castings For Industry will help you navigate and determine the manufacturing process that best fits your particular production requirement (Investment Casting, Sand Casting, Green Sand Molding, No-Bake Casting, Permanent Mold or Die Casting). There are a number of factors driving this selection process: alloy, geometry, size, surface finish, wall thickness, tolerances, draft, machining requirements, capabilities, and quantities required in a given time frame.
After determining the optimal casting process we will source the parts to one of our manufacturing partners who invest in the latest equipment and quality techniques, providing quality assurance at all stages of production.
Castings for Industry brings more than 35 years of casting production expertise. We will:
- Match you to the foundry whose capabilities best meets your needs.
- Engineer a better solution to assure higher quality and affordable part production.
- Assure quality throughout every step.
