Very interesting article from our partner Penticton foundry about how they successfully helped one of their Oil Sand industry customer by reducing their maintenance cost of a hydro transport spool equipment. They have used the existing fabrication assembly by inserting a high-wear resistance material liner. Once the liner is worn-out (which last much longer than the original fabrication itself) they … Read More

Laroche has notably developed a capability to efficiently produce small dimension cast parts of higher quality grade by integrating the new DISA/MATCH automated moulding line 18 months ago; this new asset enables them to produce high-scale volume of order while delivering standardized quality parts.

Why is Canforge one of the rare forging plant in Canada able to forget such types of hooks? Since this type of equipment will lift parts and weight from a few tons up to a couple hundred tons, you need an expert team to support your engineering team accordingly and make the right piece of equipment to meet your specific … Read More

Titanium is one of the most noble metal and features multiple characteristics that contribute to solve many issues in our world looking for lighter components outlasting former material used in the industries for decades, if not centuries. Also, this weight saving is notably important in the armored vehicles and equipment used by the military forces. Titanium features a good ballistic … Read More

The useage of the new 3D technologies has contributed to a major breakthrough in the production of premium quality cast parts, especially in the investment casting foundry business. The useage of 3D programs such as Solidworks (and other ones like that) enables the foundry to propose design changes to assure an optimal yield of the parts resulting in a cheaper … Read More

Then, the investment casting process is often selected as the optimal process to either develop new complex to highly complex parts or to convert weldment parts into casting. Resulting in greater physical properties and cost-reduction vs the assembly of a few machined parts together. The useage of the 3D printing technology enables the foundry to produce pre-production samples without paying … Read More
