THE SECRET OF PRODUCTION CAPACITY IN A FOUNDRY
[space]
I often visit aluminium foundries. To stay ahead in today’s market a foundry must be modern, efficient and consistent. All the companies I visit have high-tech presses.
Incredible metrology labs… Logistic systems that DHL would kill for…

But there’s a problem….

I never (or almost never) get to see the finishing department.
The person who shows me round the foundry doesn’t want me to see it.
Up until a few years ago, I thought they had something to hide … now I know why:
The majority of companies have invested in casting machines, but very few have invested in cutting and deburring technology!!
