Technology has made its way into the world’s oldest industries. Today’s foundries are adopting 3D printing into their manufacturing process to address the growing need throughout the industry for faster and more agile responsiveness, flexible design complexity, and innovative solutions for manufacturing labor shortages.

3D sand printers are the future of the foundry industry, and a large focal point for Alpha. 3D printers are ideal for intricate sand-casting jobs, prototyping patterns, rapid product development, and series production. 3D printing often offers reduced labor and material expense and provides greater design control.

Alpha Foundry has leveraged its early adoption of computer technology to the casting business and can easily produce castings without physical patterns. Beyond that, we are pioneers in applying 3D printed core technology in a hybrid process with our Alpha Process molding, allowing for incredibly intricate core geometry in combination with the exceptional external casting surface quality that our mainline production process is known for.
