A comprehensive approach to manufacturing excellence
Manufacturing Experience and Expertise
We have an enormous range of manufacturing experience. We have patterns for literally hundreds of products, some of which we’ve been making for decades. This gives us a knowledge base that few companies can match, and that you can draw on. Often, we can suggest alternatives to make the manufacturing process more accurate, more cost effective, and simpler.
Casting Excellence
Many casting facilities run a handful of common alloys and are reluctant to consider, let alone implement, other alloys. At NFCA, we pride ourselves in our experience for running a wide range of aluminum and copper alloys. We can suggest the metals and alloys that will best meet your specifications for strength, durability and manufacturability.
Best-in-class Quality
We do business with companies across a wide range of industries. All of them share a common trait: a relentless quest to improve quality. Those companies choose NFCA because we’re on the same quest.
Our goal at NFCA is Zero PPM: a million flawless castings in a row. We consistently monitor process and performance to move closer to that goal. That’s an expectation that comes not from our customers, but from us. That’s casting excellence.
Prompt, Realistic Timeframes
Sand casting is not just less expensive than other casting methods; it’s often significantly faster. While any company can promise a quick turn around, not every company delivers it. We know how to deliver the job on schedule. We once provided a client with tooling for their component in just one week, while permanent tooling for the same component would have taken four months. Clearly, it’s an extraordinary example, and not every project has that level of urgency. But isn’t it good to know that we’re capable of it?
Competitive Pricing
We know what manufacturers are up against. You’re under enormous pressure to decrease costs, to maintain and improve profitability. We bring down costs and increase value for manufacturers in a range of industries from automotive to office furniture. From less expensive tooling and set-up, to savings on secondary processes, we provide plenty of ways to keep your project on—or under—budget.
