Production Facilities include

Dedicated Hardware:

We use Inductotherm coreless induction furnaces with a 750 KW power supply and two 1500 pound capacity furnaces to produce gray and ductile iron castings up to 1000 pounds using green sand molding. We have capabilities in all phases of bench, squeezer or floor molding, and we recently installed a Model 3161 Roto-Lift.  Our cleaning equipment includes: Wheelabrator, tumble and table blasting and Setco High Speed grinders. Heat treating is available when required.

We maintain a complete pattern shop within a separate large facility for safe pattern storage.

Ideas when not grounded in metrology science are easily led astray

All finished pieces are subject to visual inspections. Brinnel hardness testing, chemical and physical analysis are done on a regular basis. Metallographic reports are available when requested.

Quality Control: All raw materials come from certified scrap dealers and undergo chemical analysis before use.  Molding materials are constantly tested and monitored to maintain the highest levels of casting finishes.  Our melt deck laboratory includes a microscope, brand new Bruker Spectrometer, and Leeds and Northrup Digilab equipment used to check the chemical consistency of each pour.  All finished pieces are subject to visual inspections.  Brinnel hardness testing, chemical and physical analysis are done on a regular basis.  Metalography is available when requested.

Customer Base: We currently do work for OEM’s in textile, electronics, machine tool, construction, architectural and general manufacturing companies. If you need an iron casting, whether prototype or production, whether routine or one-of-a-kind the Cumberland Foundry is your answer!

IT…and integrated production scheduling

Our manufacturing integration and reporting can keep you or your admin., IT., etc. informed on your orders progress and delivery. We can integrate with your supply chain reporting software if so desired.

Our attention to detail in pattern making keeps us at the cutting edge of “Green Sand Casting.” Consideration is always given to the details from temperature to proper mold cavity filling.

Green sand castings offer a more affordable solution to your needs over that of ‘no bake’ processes. There is no compromise to finish or dimensional tolerance.

Inductotherm coreless induction furnaces with a 750 KW power and two 1,500 pound capacity furnaces to produce gray and ductile iron castings up to 1000 pounds allows comprehensive and reliable green sand molding.

We have capabilities in all phases of bench, squeezer or floor molding, and we recently installed a Model 3161 Roto-Lift. Our cleaning equipment includes: Wheelabrator, tumble and table blasting and Setco High Speed grinders. Heat treating is available when required…

With our production scheduling, we can have your start and finished date projections usually at the time of ordering. Long term customers enjoy our instant access to technical job notes from past runs so we are able to simply get the job done without added RFQ technical considerations. We know and remember your needs and projects intimately.

Re-orders are taken quickly and as accurately as the first time we made the parts. This is but one of the benefits of a sustainable relationship.

With your production / delivery considerations known, reorders are accurately forecasted for on-time deliveries. Occasional rush jobs may require overnight work and immediate delivery. No problem, we are here to make it happen!
