Automation in investment casting is often seen as the domain of large-scale foundries, with a common perception that it requires major capital investment, significant floor space, and rigid shop-floor layouts. But what if there were a way to bring the benefits of robotic automation to foundries of any size?
In many ways Dakota Hanson (above) is a typical Young Millennial: he’s an avid Tik Tok fan, spends his spare time playing Call of Duty, and has a job working with cutting-edge technology. However, unlike many members of his generation, Dakota’s workplace is more than a laptop and a WIFI connection. As an Engineering Technician […]
At Eagle Alloy, we recently expanded our capabilities by investing in three new Inductotherm induction melting furnaces. Since opening in 1979, we’ve always used induction for melting because of its efficiency and flexibility in comparison to other heating methods. These new furnaces allow us to increase our melting capacity both now and in the future. […]
The rise of CAD/CAM software largely defines the current era of manufacturing. While blueprints and dimensional charts are still widely used as reference guides, modern manufacturers rely on software to design prototypes and simulate casting processes. One of the first steps in the cast part development process is to create a 3D model. From there, […]
The Eagle Group is comprised of three companies: a shell molding foundry, an investment casting foundry and a CNC machine house. Together, we’re able to manufacture a broad range of metal products from concept to completion. If you’re looking for a new supplier for your raw or machined cast products, the Eagle Group could be […]
When time and flexibility are top priorities, rapid prototyping for castings offers manufacturers a fast-track route to producing complex cast parts in small quantities. At
Eagle CNC’s West Michigan machine shop provides some of the highest-precision machining available, but the meaning of precision in machining is constantly changing. Industries across the board
