About Quality Castings

Since 1938, Quality’s metallurgists have been providing advice to customers in terms of alloy selection and casting design and in many cases have improved process costs by increasing the life of components and reducing downtime costs.

Our markets include – Oil and gas producers including offshore applications, petrochemical plants, mineral processing plants including iron, nickel, copper and alumina, mineral sands, power generation, pulp and paper, marine and food. In addition we are produce castings for general engineering purposes including casings, gears, drums and other parts. Impellers, pump casings valve bodies and components are in regular production for the fluid control industry.

The plant is built on a principle of flexibility, with various furnace sizes and moulding facilities so a fast response to customers needs is provided. We focus on one-offs and small to medium batches in high integrity materials with full traceability. We specialise in providing a fast and reliable casting manufacturing service to the engineering industry.

Castings are produced in a wide range of ferrous alloys and nickel and cobalt based alloys. From basic cast iron grades, ductile irons, steel grades including low alloy high strength steels, high alloy stainless steels including austenitic and duplex corrosion resistant grades through to heat resistant stainless steels and special alloys such as umco 50, monels and hastelloys. Quality has developed the experience and procedures to produce cast metal components in grades to conform to Australian and International Standards.

Castings can be produced in weights ranging from a few grams through to 2.5 tonnes in Steel grades and up to 3.5 tonnes in Iron grades. In addition we can offer a full manufacturing service including heat treatment, machining and testing including NDT methods – Radiography, Ultrasonic, Magnetic Particle, Dye penetrant, and hardness testing.

Our manufacturing facilities are supported by Quality Management System Certification to AS/NZS ISO 9001:2000. The registration covers the Quality Management System for the manufacturing of ferrous castings in stainless steels, heat resisting steels, carbon steels, low alloy steels and iron base alloys. In addition our laboratories are Certified by NATA for Chemical Analysis, Tensile testing and hardness testing.

     
 
  Risers and ingates are removed after casting and the casting is fully dressed.  
 
 
 
After dressing and heat treatment castings are shot blasted for a superior finish.
