Skilled craftspeople take your largest designs and safely produce impressive, quality castings. In the world of modern manufacturing, removing “skill” from the production equation is a highly sought-after ideal, in order to drive labor costs down. For castings produced on our Floor, this simply isn’t economical without high production quantities supporting the need for automation. Due to this reality, much of our competition is either unwilling or unable to mold in this manner. We have both green sand and no-bake capabilities to ensure we can provide the appropriate service for you. Green sand is the most cost effective but more complex, tighter tolerance or visually critical parts can be produced in no-bake sand to better control geometry and/or surface finish. As with Roto-lift molding, lead times for raw castings produced on The Floor flow around the 16-20 week range, due to the time required to produce a single casting coupled with the fact that we are an industry leader in this area.
