Strategic Export Plan Stimulates International Markets to Pump More Business into Stainless Foundry & Engineering

Pump and valve manufacturers in Canada, Mexico, Germany, Norway and South Korea are finding it beneficial and cost-effective ordering their castings from Stainless Foundry & Engineering, Inc. Requests for quotes are also in the pipeline from companies in Denmark and Belgium. To further assist SFE with their international presence, the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation conducted an ExporTech course to better prepare Stainless Foundry & Engineering for its expansion efforts to Germany. This program combines group workshops with individual coaching, leading to an export plan written by company representatives and vetted by a panel of experts. Upon completion, the program builds connections to a team of export organizations that help participating companies like Stainless go-to-market and implement their export growth plans.

Global pump and food equipment manufacturers need an alloy with high strength, corrosive resistant material and anti-galling (seizing) properties. SFE’s Illium 8 has proven to be the right choice of material for these customers. Rotary and Positive Displacement Pumps used in Food Processing Equipment comprise a large portion of SFE’s export target market. Pump housings, valve bodies, impellers and rotors are all parts that have been poured, cast and shipped internationally this year by Stainless. Whether sand casting or investment casting, Stainless is keenly aware of the variables which can affect tolerances and is fully capable of meeting requirements.

Clyde Union® Pumps Keep The Oil Flowing On Offshore Drilling Platform

One of the most rugged workplaces in the world is located nearly 200 miles off the Newfoundland coast on the Hibernia oil production platform. To ensure the oil keeps flowing, Stainless Foundry and Engineering recently worked with the pump manufacturer Clyde Union Canada Ltd., to upgrade the platform’s three centrifugal pumps.

Supporting the Global Defense Supply Chain

All major weapons systems contain a metal casting. Stainless Foundry & Engineering works with different alloys and techniques to produce castings that are better equipped to support the defense industry needs, anywhere from submarines to advanced weapons systems.

High Spec Castings – What You Need to Know about Testing

Parts produced for the nuclear, petrochemical, power generation, military, and defense industries require a high level of specification. Thorough testing is imperative to ensure these critical castings not only meet customer and industry standards, but they have the structural integrity to perform throughout their expected service life. Here’s how we do it.

Anatomy of a Pour: Investment Casting Photo Story

When Stainless Foundry & Engineering (SF&E) opened its doors in 1946, we specialized in sand casting, primarily producing impellers for pumps. SF&E added investment casting to its service offering in 1968 in response to the increasing demand for precision parts. We’ve documented our investment casting process in a series of photos as a way to pay homage to this practice, which dates back to 3,000 B.C.
