Low to Medium Volume Steel Castings
We review every part for manufacturability before we quote — and stay accountable through delivery.
In-house pattern tooling, casting, machining, and inspection. One program, one point of contact.
Casting Capabilities
Steel 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.
| Steel Grades | Carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and other steel grades based on application requirements. Grade selection based on strength, wear, corrosion resistance, heat treatment response, and end-use application. |
|---|---|
| Part Size & Production Range | Castings up to 3,000 lb typical casting weight Prototype, low-volume, and repeat production programs supported based on part requirements. |
| Pattern Tooling | In-house pattern design and build for prototype and production tooling. Urethane, wood, and aluminum tooling based on part geometry, quantity, and lead time. |
| Casting Processes | Green sand, no-bake, and 3D printed molds for prototype and low- to medium-volume steel castings. 3D printed molds support rapid prototyping, complex geometry, and reduced lead times without hard tooling. Process selected based on part requirements, volume, and lead time. |
| Heat Treatment | Heat treatment based on alloy, mechanical requirements, and end-use application. |
| Machining | CNC machining to finished part specifications. Critical features, close-tolerance areas, and machined steel castings completed to drawing requirements. |
| Finishing & Surface Treatments | Painting, powder coating, plating, and other surface treatments based on part requirements and service environment. |
| Inspection, Testing & Documentation | Dimensional inspection with reporting, including first article layouts when required. X-ray, liquid penetrant, and magnetic particle inspection available as required. FAIR, PPAP, material certifications, and ISO 9001 quality documentation supported. |
| Engineering & Program Support | Print review and manufacturability input before tooling begins. Alternate methods and tooling strategies can be evaluated for early-stage or low-quantity requirements. |
Steel Castings
Why Work With CPM
CPM supports steel casting programs with in-house pattern expertise, controlled execution, and one accountable team from print review through final delivery.
Tooling Control from the Start
Pattern tooling is developed and controlled 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.
