UMF has kept pace with industry advancements
in equipment and technology. Growing as the needs of
our customers have grown. We utilize two BBC furnaces a
digital spectrometer control chemistries. There are four
molding centers, two green sand squeezer lines, a Hunter
20-C Automatic Molding machine, and an Osborn cope and drag
molding machine, as well a no bake, chemically bonded sand
molding line with sand reclamation. We offer these molding
lines to provide our customers with the best fit & price,
meeting casting requirements with reference to cost, high
or low volume, or tight tolerances.
Our Quality concept is based on what
our customer says it should be. We begin with computer
programs for gating and risering, assuring sound
castings with delay-free first run sampling. All iron heats
are confirmed by the A.R.L. Spectrometer, assuring accurate
chemistry. A four-person Quality Control Department
includes a QC Manager, an engineer and two inspectors/auditors.
This staff confirms the dimensions, chemistry,
and the hardness of the first-run castings, and assures
adherence to customer standards of production quality.
S.P.C. is used on 45 variables to control processes involving
sands, mold hardness, chemistry and iron temperatures.
Operations are guided by the UMF Quality Standards Manual
which parallels the requirements of ISO 9002. This folder
includes a copy of the manual's Table of Contents for review.
If desired, a numbered copy of the complete Quality Standards
Manual will be furnished upon an initial quotation
request.
UMF maintains an enviable reputation
for service to the rocks and roads, coal and mining industries
as well as major O.E.M. firms in the cement and asphalt
industries. We strive to be responsive to all inquiries
for quotations, order information or expediting. We tell
