Production

Casting quality every day.

Fonderia di Castenedolo produces and markets cast iron pieces, both raw and machined, for the steel industry and mechanical engineering in general. Moulds and cores, executed in sand – resin, are made by three mixers, and the pouring phases take place with the use of pneumatic reversing ladles, with capacities varying from 10 to 55 tons.

Using highly advanced and efficient plants, processes monitored by modern control systems and managed by specialized, constantly trained personnel, Fonderia di Castenedolo is able to manufacture great varieties and quantities of products in lamellar cast iron, grey cast iron and nodular cast iron. The assistance of the highly qualified internal technical Department guarantees the production of cast iron pieces tailored on any need and application. Here some of the products which are part of the production: cast iron flywheels, ingot moulds, stool plates and bases, pots, slag pots, lead casting trays, crucibles, plates and counter plates, hot tops, chill moulds, bases and structures for presses.

Patterns and cores
