Foundry and forge

Precise industrial measurements for forge and foundry

  • High accuracy & precision maintained in the most difficult environment

Foundry is one of the oldest techniques of manufacturing metal elements where specific shape and properties are needed. Beginning of foundry starts at 7000 BC. Then civilizations were able to melt gold and cast metals.

In the past was mainly cast:

  • jewelry 
  • metal reliefs 
  • statues 
  • everyday articles
  • church bells and doors
  • elements of pumps and water supply

Nowadays, modern foundry is associated with production for almost every industry. From the automotive to the medicine industry. The development in that field resulted in an increased investor’s requirements. They need really high quality products in short deadlines.

 How metrology services can positively affect the forge and foundry industry?

The final product made by foundry plants must meet the design assumptions and specifications. In order to keep all the imposed tolerances, the producers of castings must pay attention to the condition and quality of:

  • casting molds and dies
  • machines for making foundry molds and cores
  • automatic molding lines
  • injection molding machines
  • molding compound preparing machines 
  • wax models

To ensure the required quality of the final product, we recommend using our services before starting the production. By controlling the condition of equipment and tooling you can gain assurance of the quality of final products.
