Foundry

Stahl specializes in only permanent and semi-permanent mold aluminum castings. Over a dozen different alloys are poured daily within the 300 aluminum series. Sand cores in the cold and hot box process are available to meet your specifications.

The three foundry facilities in Kingsville focus on diesel engine, marine, agriculture, construction tools, refrigeration, and commercial industries. Casting weights range from one pound to 242 pounds with volumes of several hundred to 400,000 annually. Over 80% of the castings are shipped fully machined and some sub-assembly is maintained within the process.

The Kingsville foundries have 44 permanent mold machines in operation each day with platen sizes of 18x24 through 48x60 inches. With the exception of two machines, all foundry casting machines are the tilt-pour-process enhancing the solidification resulting in a higher strength casting. Using dry hearth reverbratory furnaces the melting capacity exceeds over 37,000 pounds per hour.

The Warrensburg complex also has three foundry facilities primarily servicing the automotive industry. Casting sizes typically are less than five pounds with volumes of 100,000 to over a million castings per year. The majority of the Warrensburg foundry machines are rotary turntables providing the maximum production output per man-hour. There are 19 foundry cells with a melting capacity over 39,000 pounds per hour.

Stahl Specialty offers a wide variety of casting sizes, weights, and volumes providing its customers with diverse flexibility in the customer’s design and scheduling requirements to meet the needs of today’s business environment.
