An overview of our capabilities:
Product Engineering -- Specialized product engineers handle application engineering, design and automated drafting. Our engineers will work with you to meet or exceed your expectations.
Patternmaking and foundry engineering -- Our fully equipped and staffed in-house pattern shop makes us unique among today's domestic foundries. We design patterns to ensure proper metal flow and cooling for best part integrity.
Molding and coremaking -- These departments work closely to make dimensionally accurate olivine sand molds of the most intricate hollow section and thick section iron and steel castings.
Metallurgy and melting -- We have developed our own proprietary high specification alloys, and ensure their composition using computerized spectrometer sampling up to the moment of pouring.
Our alloys include:
Foundry and pouring -- Our foundry has two 10-ton and one 4-ton electric arc furnaces, and six 1,000 to 2,200 lb. induction furnaces. We can pour parts weighing up to 40,000 lbs.
Heat treating -- Our fourteen heat treating ovens use computer controls for optimum temperature rise and holding time. A pump-driven recirculating water system assures proper quenching.
Machining -- Our 70,000 sq. ft. facility, Columbia Engineering Works, is one of the largest machine shops in the Western U.S, and houses our 20 ft. x 30 ft., 8 ft. capacity heat treating oven.
We invite you to contact us with your industrial casting needs. Find out how "wear parts done right" means greater efficiency and lower costs for your operation.
