Design of Castings and Simulation of the Metal Flow & Solidification |

|
|
Design & Simulation
 |
|
The use of state of the art high-speed computers, along with the most advanced software enables our methods engineer to accurately simulate both the flow of molten metal within the mould cavity, and the subsequent solidification characteristics. This is an invaluable tool in minimising pattern development time and ensuring a “Right first time” methoding solution.
Potential problems such as, shrinkage porosity, cold laps, and misrun can be identified and resolved without the need for costly and time consuming pattern, mould and casting production.
Our in house casting design team provides informed advice on casting design, materials and process selection, to identify at the onset of a project the optimum casting solution, and minimise the lead time to market.

Rapid Prototyping
The foundry production development department also uses rapid prototyping facilities to help assess casting shape for manufacturing. RP models can also be used to create low budget tooling producing prototype castings for testing and appraisal.

Global Sourcing from Local Experts |
|
|
|
‘Newby Foundries can globally source, and supply
fully finished castings to your requirements .’
To complement this service we can also procure your tooling requirements and liase with your design engineers at the concept stage to make sure that, together, we can successfully supply you with castings in any grade and material to whatever finish you require.
This would be offered with the full backing of the Newby quality standards of inspection and delivered to whatever destination you require.
The advantages of sourcing through Newby Foundry are:
• We assess and vet sub-contractor/supplier.
• We inspect and guarantee the quality and delivery of castings to, you, the customer.
• Any initial sampling, tooling verification, PPAP or any other issues become our responsibility.
• All components quoted can be either raw castings, semi-finished or fully painted and machined ready for assembly.
• We can provide all testing and certification.
• Stocking and KanBan agreements can be negotiated.

Quality Department
Through carefully developed operating procedures our quality standards are continuously being raised.
The Mark-Out department is equipped with a computer assisted 3 axis co-ordinate measuring machine (C.M.M.)
This set-up allows us to dimensionally assess tooling and sample castings to PPAP requirements quickly and accurately. Printed results of findings can be generated for customer approvals.
Our Quality Department is supported by well equipped laboratory facilities, enabling us to carry out spectrographic analysis, mechanical and non-destructive testing including dye-penetrant, ultrasonics, magnetic particle and endoscopy.

NEWBY FOUNDRIES - Vacuum Backed & Conventional Shell Moulding
Smith Road, Wednesbury, West Midlands. WS10 0PB.
Commissioned in 1992, this purpose built Shell Foundry provides Newby Foundries with a modern facility that is accredited to ISO/TS 16949:2002, and underpins our position as a leader in this method of manufacture.
Shell Moulding produces castings with close dimensional tolerances, good surface finish and excellent reproduction of detail.
The process often reduces the amount of subsequent machining, assembly and finishing when compared to conventional moulding.
Our design team can help you explore and maximise these opportunities.
Vacuum Backed Shell Moulded castings offer all the benefits of the standard Shell Process with the ability to cast larger more complex castings up to 90Kg.
This process is based on the support of the shell moulds using the latest Vacuum Technology. Increased Rates of gas removal and very low fume emissions are also benefits of this Unique Process.
| Weight Range: |
0.25kg - 25kg (Standard Shell Process) &
20kg - 90kg (Vacuum Backed Shells) |
| Melting Facilities: |
4 - 1/2 Tonne Induction Furnaces |
| Heat Treatment: |
Own Heat Treatment Facility. |
| Certification: |
Provision of non-destructive test certificates as required. |
