Iron Foundries
Iron foundries pour molten gray and ductile iron into sand molds to produce castings for machinery, automotive, construction and infrastructure parts. The specialists turn customer drawings and specifications into pattern and core requirements, create mold and pour schedules, track metal chemistry and sand system conditions, manage heat treat and finishing steps, and prepare castings for shipment while maintaining pouring records, inspection reports and material certifications that the foundry team reviews and signs.
