DIFFERENTIATORS
Advanced Light Metal Manufacturing = 180 years of Quality Part Manufacturing
Our Commitment to Quality
- Stringent Quality Control: Adherence to AS9100, ISO 9001, and NADCAP standards.
- ITAR Registered
- Indiana Small Business Enterprise (SBE)-Self Certified
- Control Measures: Utilizing the latest CMM & NDT methods in our quality process
Advanced Metal Casting
- Precision Sand Casting: Producing large, complex aluminum, magnesium & alloy components with high accuracy.
- Investment Casting: Creating intricate and high-precision parts using lost-wax processes.
- Diecasting: Manufacturing high-strength components using our 25 Ton diecaster
Heat Treatment
- Advanced Heat Treatment: Enhancing material properties through controlled heating and cooling processes to achieve desired mechanical characteristics.
Machining and Finishing
- CNC Machining: Utilizing advanced computer-controlled machines for precision shaping and detailing of components.
- Finishing Services: Providing comprehensive finishing options, including coating and surface treatments, to meet exacting specifications.
Quality Assurance and Testing
- Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Employing techniques like X-ray, ultrasonic, and dye penetrant inspections to ensure component integrity without damaging the parts.
- Material Testing: Conducting rigorous tests for tensile strength, hardness, and chemical composition to verify material properties.
- Dimensional Inspection: Using precision measurement tools to ensure components meet strict dimensional tolerances.
Engineering and Design
- Computer-Aided Design (CAD): Leveraging various advanced CAD software for detailed design and engineering analysis. We are compatible with wide range of CAD file tyes from .STEP to .DXF
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA): Performing simulations to predict how components will behave under various conditions, optimizing designs for performance and reliability.
- CFD Analysis/Precision Fluid Dynamics: Simulating castings before they are poured to greatly improve a part’s molecular structure which increases its overall performance, longevity and nearly eliminates rejections.
- Rapid 3D Printing Prototyping – FDM Fused Model Depositing: Some precision parts are difficult to machine into a pattern. Additive 3D printing offers a whole new range of casting capabilities that were previously unavailable to the industry. Coupled with plastic 3D print prototyping FFF/FDM, clients can physically see their tooling, patterns and parts in small scale before they are poured. This also allows for various changes to be made during a production cycle.
Research and Development
- Innovative R&D: Continuously exploring new materials, processes, and technologies to stay at the forefront of aerospace and defense manufacturing.
- Working with Universities to fund and drive development of even more advanced manufacturing technologies, such as metal 3D printing that meets and exceeds traditional manufacturing.
Customer-Centric Approach
- Tailored Solutions: Customized offerings to drive client success.
- Dedicated Support: Exceptional customer service throughout the project lifecycle.
- Dedicated information stream: Log into your portal to see exactly where your product is in the production lifecycle.
Strategic Partnerships
- Industry Alliances: Partnerships with leading suppliers and research institutions to enhance capabilities.
- Collaborative Approach: Close collaboration with clients and partners for shared goals.
