Design service
Our in house casting design team provides informed advice on casting design, materials and process selection. We can identify from the onset of your project, the optimum casting solution and minimise the lead time to market. Using Solidworks™ software, we can take your existing designs and modify them to achieve the best possible casting while saving you time and money. We typically achieve features in castings which negate machining and therefore reduce cost and finishing time.
If you want to take your design ideas to production Newby RapidCast provide additional design services.
Quality Control
Our experienced engineers operate to the highest quality standards. This is supported by our accreditation to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO / TS 16949: 2009 for the shell process.
Prior to casting, we have the facilities to run a simulation. Newby Foundries use state of the art, high-speed computers, along with the most advanced SOLIDCast™ software. This enables our design engineers to accurately simulate both the flow of molten metal within the mould cavity, and the subsequent solidification characteristics. Shrinkage porosity, cold laps and misrun can be identified and quickly resolved before any metal is poured. This is an invaluable tool in minimising pattern development time and scrappage by ensuring a “Right first time” solution.
After casting, products are measured, analysed and certified to ensure they fully comply with requirements.
Finishing
Castings can be supplied fettled (shot blasted to remove any residual sand) or fully machined. We also offer painting/powder coating and heat treatment services.
Global sourcing
Newby Foundries not only offer UK casting solutions but operate in a global market for customers with mature products. We search the world as casting suppliers, getting our customers a global price with local support. We can deal with quality control, KanBan and stocking giving you the best possible price and quality with all the advantages of a local UK contact.
Newby Foundries has formed a number of strong trading alliances with accredited companies in India and China and have the ability to source components for you in these countries.
