Melting &casting.
Poured to specification, from 50 kg to 12 t
Induction melting from 50 kg to 12 t, poured into sand or investment moulds and signed off by our own lab.
Four induction furnaces melt carbon, low-alloy and stainless grades from sorted scrap and virgin alloys. Every heat is sampled on the spectrometer before the ladle leaves the furnace, so a chemistry miss is corrected in the melt, not found on the part.
Patterns are made in-house in wood, polystyrene or 3D-printed resin, and customer patterns are stored free of charge for five years.
Questions about melting and casting
One piece, if the pattern exists. For new patterns we usually recommend a run of five or more to spread the tooling cost.
