When introducing cost down programmes, care must be taken to avoid sacrificing quality.
Leading foundries focus on becoming more productive – making more saleable castings per unit of raw materials, capital equipment, labour and energy. Producing sound castings involves a complex interaction of processes and the benefits of improved practices are often realised in other parts of the value chain.
Unlike narrow-range suppliers, Foseco’s broad product portfolio and wide-ranging expertise means that we can help our customers to develop a complete overview of the production process.
We work with our customers to optimise existing processes.
Our application engineers have spent years working in
foundries discovering the best ways to help customers
and are backed up by a network of local and international
experts. Our approach is to work closely in direct contact
with our customers to ensure that our technology is applied
to your processes in the most effective way. In this
way we help our customers:
increase effective melting capacity
produce more castings per hour
shorten cycle times and reduce levels of work in
progress
significantly reduce the level and cost of after-cast
operations
avoid waste by ensuring right first time every time
Local and international application experts can help you
to develop novel techniques.
Foseco is committed to developing new products and processes
to deliver advances in productivity. We are increasing
our efforts in the development of application equipment
to improve consistency in use, reduce process times and
produce more castings per unit of labour.
