How to Find an Investment Casting Manufacturer for Custom Molds

Finding An Investment Casting Manufacturer

When you are searching for a precision investment casting manufacturer, you need a company with a proven track record across many different industries. At Intercast, our leadership team has more than 125 years of combined experience in investment castings, meaning we have seen and done just about everything.

When you are looking for investment casting experience that is especially adept at custom molds, it makes sense to look at the type of industries they work with and create molds for. The broader the experience, the more versatile the manufacturer as creating precision investment casts that fit your needs. We provide casts for industries such as: Aerospace, Automotive, Food Equipment, Oil & Gas, Power Generation, and much more.

Another important trait for an investment casting company is control over the entire process, from start to finish. This starts with design flexibility, being able to offer options when it comes to alloys to use, which can impact the configurations and strengths of the cast. It also means being able to design for even the most complicated custom molds, such as those with complex shapes or hollow section parts.

In order to reduce lead times and create a smooth, responsive system, you need to find an investment casting manufacturer that has its own foundry. Our foundry is located 10 miles south of the U.S. border in Mexico, which allows us to offer outstanding pricing, high-quality casts, and excellent customer service. Our foundry features an experienced, bi-lingual workforce that allows for real-time sharing and collaboration.

These faster lead times allow us to produce low, medium or high volume production runs faster and less expensive than our competition. All of our focus is spent on delivering quality products as quickly as possible, and at the most affordable price, we can.

Control over the entire process allows for maximum flexibility and adaptability when it comes to designing and creating custom molds for our clients. With our foundry operating as a maquiladora, we offer this along with a world-class pricing structure and a seamless supply chain that reduces the cost of ownership for our clients.

Finally, when you are looking at custom investment casting molds, it’s important to get quicker feedback. Our rapid prototyping 3D printing system allows us to provide sample casings more quickly and cheaply, both in design and creating a functional prototype. This helps our clients provide key feedback so that the custom mold we create will be exactly what they are looking for, all while saving valuable time and money.

At Intercast, we look to partner with our clients to provide the custom investing casting molds that they need to sustain and grow their business, no matter the industry. We are a long-standing company that is in it for the long haul. Contact us today to request a quote for your project, and let us know what type of custom molds your business needs.
