Green sand and no bake castings are produced in all major non-ferrous,
engineering and special alloys. All alloys are produced to commercial,
military and federal standards. Certified ingot is used for
all castings. The alloys are segregated, tested, and verified
prior to pouring. Melting department SPC records are also available
for inspection.
Casting weights range from ounces to 400 lbs. in aluminum,
750 lbs. in Copper Nickel, Monel, and Aluminum Bronze, and
1500 lbs. in the red metals. |
|
Our Processes: |
All
melting is done in electric furnaces and 2 gas-fired furnaces
are reserved for preheating. |
The
electric furnaces consist of 2 tilts of 2,000 lbs. each, 1 tilt
of 1,500 lbs., 2 pushups of 300 lbs. each, and 2 lift swings.
Different types and sizes of furnaces provide excellent versatility.
Our total melting capacity per hour is 5,000 lbs. |

|

Cores are made of oil, shell, hot box, CO2, isocure, and no
bake.
|
 Our
molding sites consist of Jolt Squeeze, Roto Lift, Pin Lift (Cope
and Drag), and No Bake departments. Molding sand is prepared
in a 1 1/2 G Simpson Mix Muller, in conjunction with fully automatic
3818 Compactability Controller and SPC tests are recorded in
our sand test laboratory. |

|
We
maintain a pattern shop, primarily for repairing, gating, risering
and checking patterns. New pattern equipment is subcontracted
to outside shops that make patterns exactly to specifications.
