Low to Medium Volume Cast Iron Castings
We manage cast iron casting programs from tooling through finished part — including machining, inspection, and engineering support.
One accountable partner from print to finished part.
Casting Capabilities
Cast iron casting programs supported from tooling through final inspection, with manufacturability review, machining, documentation, and one accountable team managing the process from print to finished part.
| Cast Iron Grades | Gray Iron Class 25, Class 30, Class 35, and Class 40 Grade selection based on strength, machinability, damping characteristics, and application requirements |
|---|---|
| Part Size & Production Range | 0.1 lb to 3,000 lb typical casting weight Prototype, low-volume, and repeat production programs supported based on part requirements |
| Pattern Tooling | Pattern tooling design and build support Wood, urethane, and aluminum tooling options selected around geometry, volume, and production life |
| Casting Processes | Green sand and no-bake (airset) molding 3D printed molds available for rapid prototyping, design validation, and complex geometry Process selected based on part requirements, volume, and lead time |
| Heat Treatment | Heat treatment specified based on grade, performance requirements, and customer specifications |
| Machining | Machining support through finished part requirements Critical features, datum structure, and inspection approach reviewed before production |
| Finishing & Surface Treatments | Painting, coating, oiling, and other treatments coordinated when required Finishing selected based on application, environment, and customer specifications |
| Inspection, Testing & Documentation | Dimensional inspection with reporting, including first article layouts when required Magnetic particle, liquid penetrant, or other testing available as required FAIR, PPAP, material certifications, and ISO 9001 quality documentation supported |
| Engineering & Program Support | Print review and manufacturability feedback before quoting and production Gating, riser, tooling, machining, and alternate manufacturing approaches reviewed when appropriate |
Cast Iron Casting Examples
Why Work With CPM
CPM helps reduce the friction of cast iron casting programs by aligning tooling, casting, machining, inspection, and communication through one accountable team.
Tooling Control from the Start
Pattern tooling is managed through CPM so design intent, foundry requirements, and production needs stay aligned from the beginning.
One Accountable Partner
No chasing multiple vendors. One team owns the project path from print review through finished part delivery.
Defined Process Through Delivery
Tooling, casting, machining, and inspection are planned together to reduce surprises later in the program.
Built for Flexible Volumes
Support for prototype, low-volume, and repeat production without forcing the project into a high-volume model.
Clear Communication
Defined checkpoints and straightforward updates help keep timing, requirements, and expectations aligned.
