We depend upon castings for all aspects of modern life. Without castings there would be no cars, no aero planes, no wind energy turbines, pumps and valves are castings as well as many household items, not to mention art castings.

– The process involves pouring molten metal (metal that has generally been re-processed from scrap into a raw material) into a mould containing a hollow cavity of the desired shape, which is allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mould to complete the process. 

1. It can create any complex structure economically.
2. The size of object doesn’t matter for casting.
3. The casting objects have high compressive strength.
4. All structure made by casting has wide range of properties.
5. This can create an accurate object.
6. All material can be cast.
7. It creates isotropic structure.
8. It is cheapest among all manufacturing processes.
9. Composite component can be easily made by casting.

As you know, CraftMach Engineered Solutions Inc. helps its customers in overcoming their competitors cost challenges by re-engineering the component so that it is a lighter castings, less machining required, certain features can be made as cast or simpler castings joined together to form a bigger single piece casting.

There are some certain advantages of converting a welding (fabrication) into castings components for many reasons. Among these all, the top reason behind this is saving in labor cost.  We can save time by converting to a casting varies on: the alloy being converted, amount of welding spots, assembly time, and the total amount of pieces to be combined with other some labor and overhead cost too.  The other reason after the labor time saving is the properties that castings provide.

A common problem in weldments is durability due to strength concerns where the pieces are welded together.  To overcome such problems, our engineers turn to castings to increase strength (among several other mechanical properties) due to the uniformity of pouring a casting.  

Advantages of Converting a Weldment to a Casting

• Reduced Part Cost
• Reduced Labor Time
• Less Production Time
• Improved Mechanical Properties
• Better Appearance
• Easy to Handle

Dark side of Converting a Weldment to a Casting

• Pattern/Die Cost
• May be in some cases, it requires Machining

• Crucial Methods To Test Metal Casting Parts’ Quality for Critical High Performance:

Yes, you are thinking the same as many industrial professionals and companies are thinking now from Casting /Supply Chain industry. As everybody knows that casting products/parts in Pump/Valve/Heavy Equipment/Automotive/Lighting and many industries are manufactured and supplied by many complex and long processes and of course very complex supply chain. There are many key manufacturers and suppliers are involved in making of even single casting product.

Key players in making custom finished casting products are as follows,

1. Raw Material supplier
2. Die/ Tool/ Pattern/Core maker
3. Foundry / Casting Processor
4. Post Processor (CNC Machining/Finishing Partner)
5. Heat Treatment ( Hardening and other HT Processes, in some cases)
6. Surface Treatment (Painting/ Coating/Polishing/Sand Blasting )
7. Logistics Partner (Transporter/Warehousing/Inventory Management)

From these all partners, sometimes two roles can be played by one player. But still you can see there are 4-5 players are generally involved in making successful casting products in the normal supply chain today.

So you have seen that these many of suppliers are making a complex supply chain in almost every casting industry. It is obvious that with many partners in supply chain, it will be more time taking, costlier, complex and risky for today’s fast moving and dynamic industrial products life cycles in cut throat competition.

All of above, there are many cost and risk associated with this kind of supply chain. Such as;

1. Shipping/Transportation Cost between moving/forwarding the material/things for processes in shattered supply chain partner locations
2. Overhead/Indirect Cost associated with Administration/Management such as for managing all vendors (for follow ups, updates, book keeping records, maintaining different accounts, man power cost, other indirect/overhead management )
3. Risk/Delay cost associated if one of supplier/partners get delayed/stopped, then whole supply chain is delayed or disturbed (if there is no back up or without strategic supply chain management)
4. Direct Product cost gets more higher or expensive with old and complex supply chain due to traditional and unorganized strategies/locations/execution
5. lack and improper Co-ordination of any player can result into late delivery, more cost and quality issues in whole supply chain.

So, after these all costs combined, it will become a cost, that can be reduced by 10-35% by re designing that traditional and complex supply chain with core manufacturing and strategic sourcing capabilities.

So In Casting Industry, How Risk And Cost Can Be Reduced And With That Quality, Performance & Profitability Can Be Increased?

Well, simple but effective solution is ” A great supply chain partner with core manufacturing and strategic sourcing capabilities with supply chain and logistics management with co-ordination in center.”

Let me explain in detail. As we discussed that in Casting product’s supply chain, there are many players are involved to make successful products. As a result, many complex and time taking processes such as material movement (necessary/unnecessary) between all the players, one or many times irrespective of geographic locations (sometimes due to not have many options & lack of network partner). These all result into major unnecessary cost around 5-20% in-general. Moreover, there is a risk and cost associated when one partner in supply chain gets into trouble and delay in case of any production stoppage or any other. And because of not any other option and back up in supply chain network, co ordination gets disturbed and finally it results into late delivery and also more cost. And same things and cost associated with traditional, complex and out dated supply chains are overhead/indirect cost, administration cost & direct product cost which all together comes up to 35% extra product cost sometimes in whole supply chain.

So the possible proven solution offered by us is explained further. Let’s assume and consider that as a buyer you have just one supply chain partner who has core manufacturing capabilities and knowledge of processes with great suppliers network with strategic supply chain and logistics management as a great strength. So, suppose this partner is handling and processing all your buying requirements like raw material, die making, casting production, CNC machining, surface and heat treatment processes with logistics and warehousing management and giving you door delivery whenever you require like Just In Time and Vendor Managed Inventory and other supply chain management support.

Co-ordination Driven Core Manufacturing Based Supply Chain Management

Now you have got that what we are trying to explain the solution for performance and profitability improvement with cost reduction & quality improvement. Its already been proven in many industries and companies. Many companies are adopting this model in casting and many other industries.
