We are an innovative manufacturer of complex metal parts with high mechanical properties, specialising in investment, sand and prototyping casting solutions.
We cast in a diverse range of alloys, including but not limited to titanium, aluminium, steel, irons and cobalt. We also offer production machining and additional supporting services such as assembly and NADCAP-certified non-destructive testing (NDT), all under one roof.
We are a proven and trusted partner to the defence industry around the globe with over 10 years of service and experience in manufacturing critical components for air, land, maritime and space platforms.
Metal Casting Expertise:
Over 40 years of experience in investment and sand casting. We cast using ferrous and non-ferrous materials, such as aluminium, stainless, low-alloy steels, irons, and copper/cobalt/ nickel-base metals.
We excel in complex part geometries and through our ABE (Aluminum Billet Equivalent) process can produce some of the strongest aluminium castings in the world.
Titanium Investment Casting:
We cast complex metal parts using titanium for demanding applications, offering Australia’s first and only titanium vacuum melting capability.
We cast in Ti 6-4 and Ti 6-2-4-2 alloys.
Precision Machining and Assembly:
Our dedicated machine shop specialises in precision machining and assembly of complex, high-tolerance components.
Utilising 5, 4, and 3-axis machining centers, we achieve exceptional accuracy with intricate geometries
We offer turnkey solutions, from tooling to finished, assembled parts made from castings or billets.
Prototyping:
Since 2000, we have used 3D printing for rapid prototyping and small production runs.
Leveraging CAD data, this tooling-free process delivers parts with mechanical properties equivalent to production castings, ideal for R&D and time-sensitive projects.
Supporting Services:
Our supporting services include engineering and design (tooling, CFD, R&D), NDT (NATA/ NADCAP certified), NADCAP-certified welding, quality control (AS9100/ISO14001, ITAR compliant), tool & pattern making, heat treatment, and surface treatments (painting, plating, etc.).
