Good castings start with a good die

The final dimensions and tolerances of an investment casting are decided by the wax pattern, which makes the die the single most important item in the process. Our team works with clients on tooling requirements, and we manage the manufacture and storage of tools, which results in a high return on investment.

Because tooling stays with us, dimensional accuracy remains consistent from part to part over the years, and repeat orders can be released quickly without any re-qualification.

What the tool room does

Tooling Services

Die Design

Casting layout, shrinkage allowance, gating and parting line decided from your component drawing before a single cut is made, with a 3D model shared for approval.

Die Manufacture

Aluminium and steel wax injection dies produced in house, including multi-cavity tools where the annual volume justifies them.

Soluble & Ceramic Cores

Core boxes for soluble wax and ceramic cores that create internal passages and undercuts which cannot be moulded conventionally.

Modification & Repair

When your design changes it is usually possible to modify existing tooling at relatively low cost rather than build a replacement.

Tool Storage

We manufacture and store your tools, indexed and preserved, so that repeat orders can be released without delay years after the first production run.

Fixtures & Gauges

Machining fixtures, checking gauges and inspection templates built alongside the die so that the whole route is proved together.

From Drawing to Approved Sample

01
Drawing Review

We study your drawing, sample or 3D model and advise on casting feasibility, section design, radii and machining allowance.

02
Tool Manufacture

The die is designed with the correct shrinkage and gating, then cut, polished and trialled in our own tool room.

03
Sample Casting

First-off wax patterns and sample castings are produced, inspected dimensionally and tested for material properties.

04
Approval & Production

On your approval the tool is released for series production and stored with us for all future repeat orders.

Developing a new component?

Send the drawing early. Small changes agreed before the die is cut can save a great deal of cost and time later in the programme.
