Moulding Shop
Hand-formed castings up to 5000 kg and machine-formed castings up to 850 kg are produced
in the moulding shop. Through the use of suitable moulding techniques and the deliberate
use of different types of moulding sands, we are able to achieve the exact dimensions and
quality surface finish demanded by our clients of our steel castings.

Melting Shop
In two modern and efficient 3 and 6 tonnes electric arc furnaces, operated in accordance
with the latest environmental standards, over 80 different types of alloys are melted, all
of which are high quality raw materials. During the melting operation the charges are
continuously monitored via spectrometer and thermocouple elements. By using these, we are
able to guarantee continuous high-grade quality steel castings and also fulfill quickly
requests for unusual or non-standard alloys.

Fettling and Finishing Shop
The latest results from research regarding improvements of conditions at the workplace
have been incorporated into our recently re-organized Fettling and Finishing Shop. This
demonstrates also that the health of our employees - as a prerequisite for the high
quality of our products - is of utmost importance to us.
|
Heat Treatment
The extensive heat treatment facilities are used by us to the full. The castings are
quenched according to the quality required in either water, oil or by air, so that the
optimum tensile strength and ductility can be matched with one another.

Quality
Control
The high standard of quality demanded by our clients and the diverse range of products
requires extensive quality control. We meet our clients demands for better and uniform
quality castings through our own very carefully formulated work practice programme and
rigorous implementation of the process and casting monitoring controls. The monitoring
begins with the examination of the raw materials and ends with the finished castings.
Modern testing methods such as spectroanalysis, ultrasonic testing, magnetic magnaflux
inspection, dye penetrating testing and radiografic (X-Ray) inspection are used. We are
also approved by the various international quality assurance authorities.
Tested quality is guaranteed quality!
Comprehensive quality supervision for the greatest possible safety, as demanded by our
clients!
