Custom Castings (OEM)
When off-the-shelf components don't meet your specific design requirements, our Custom Casting division delivers. We specialize in producing complex, near-net-shape components in high-performance nickel and cobalt alloys, tailored exactly to your technical drawings.
- Methods: Precision Investment (Lost Wax) & Sand Casting.
- Alloys: C-276, Inconel 625, Monel 400, Hastelloy X, and more.
- Design: 3D Modeling & Pattern Making services available.
- Weight Range: From 0.1 kg up to 1,500 kg.
Fabricating complex geometries from solid bar stock or welding multiple plates together is often inefficient and prone to failure points. Custom casting allows for integral structural strength, reduced machining time, and significant material cost savings by using only the metal you need.
Design Freedom
Create internal passageways, curved vanes, and complex contours that are impossible or too costly to machine from solid blocks.
Material Versatility
We pour a wide range of ASTM A494 grades (CW-12MW, CW-6MC, M-35-1) that match the corrosion resistance of wrought alloys.
Reverse Engineering
Have a broken legacy part with no drawings? We can 3D scan existing components to create new patterns and reproduce the part.
Design & Pattern
We analyze your CAD file and create a pattern using 3D printing (for prototypes) or machined aluminum/steel (for production).
Molding & Pouring
Ceramic shells (Investment) or Sand molds are created. Molten nickel alloy is poured under controlled atmosphere.
Finishing
Gates and risers are removed. Castings are heat-treated, blasted, and machined to final tolerance.
| Caraterística | Investment Casting (Lost Wax) | Sand Casting |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | High (±0.1 mm typical) | Moderate (±1.5 mm typical) |
| Surface Finish | Smooth (125 RMS) | Rougher (250-500 RMS) |
| Part Size | Small to Medium (< 100 kg) | Medium to Massive (> 1000 kg) |
| Tooling Cost | Higher (Aluminum dies) | Lower (Wood/Plastic patterns) |
| Best For | Complex valves, impellers, medical parts. | Large pump casings, volutes, pipe fittings. |
We ensure the integrity of every pour with comprehensive testing options:
Chemical Analysis
Spectrographic analysis of every heat to ensure UNS/ASTM compliance.
Mechanical Testing
Tensile bars cast with the heat to verify yield, tensile, and elongation properties.
NDT Inspection
X-Ray (Radiography) and Dye Penetrant testing available to detect internal porosity or surface defects.
