Aluminum Alloys Inc

Aluminum Alloys is the largest foundry of its type on the East Coast. Specializing in large, complex aluminum castings, Aluminum Alloys offers design, manufacturing, and finishing facilities for aluminum castings production. By keeping all casting manufacturing in-house, Aluminum Alloy maintains better control of the manufacturing process, reduces overall lead time for clients, and typically saves customers from 7 to 12% in hidden manufacturing costs.Aluminum Alloys operates as three facilities within one. Small parts weighing 1 to 30 pounds are molded on one of three fully automatic cost efficient moldling machines. Molds can be produced in 45 seconds on this equipment. Parts 30 to 100 pounds are molded on semi-automatic roto-lift stations, while large parts, 100 to 2000 pounds are molded by experienced craftsmen coordinated with single pour technology, which in turn saves cost.Aluminum Alloys machining facilities cover a broad range of machining needs and include more than 25 machines for milling, turning, drilling, and all conventional machine work.The machines can handle parts from 1 lbs. to more than one ton and in quantities from 1 to thousands. Included in the machining facility are more than 25 NC and CNC machining centers with as large as 4' X 4' X 6' travel to assure optimum pricing and quality.Aluminum Alloys is the largest foundry of its type on the East Coast with its own machine shop, providing in-house machining and finishing capability to furnish parts complete to print. By assuming full single source responsibility, Aluminum Alloys can relieve customer of problems with split vendor orders, which results in maintaining better control of the manufacturing process and often reduces overall lead time. Experience has shown this approach also saves customers from 7 to 12% in “hidden costs.”Aluminum Alloys operates as three facilities within one.
