Production runs, engine castings, gears and wheels — gray and ductile iron. We reverse-engineer the raw casting, prove it, then tool it for the volume you need.
Gears and sprockets, gear bodies, valve bodies, die blanks, cleaning horns, door catches, lamp posts, subway railing. Gray and ductile iron, cast to drawing or to sample.
Antique engine castings, reproduced from original parts. We take this work to keep a current casting-engineering, 3D CAD modeling and mold-design practice running with our collaborators — proving advanced technique on parts that demand it, alongside the traditional jobbing foundry knowledge and economics that carry the rest of the floor.
Each of these pushes the envelope of casting feasibility: thin walls, delicate cores, and venting gas out of the mold. Those problems belong to any mold-making technology. 3D-printed sand molds are what let a casting this complex be made at rational cost in low volume.

From a sample, a fragment, or a drawing, we reverse-engineer the raw casting and pour a new one.
