CNC machining and finishing of aluminium castings

Castings leave Satara machined, finished and inspected, so you receive a ready-to-fit part from one supplier with one quality record. Operations run in our own plant unless the table says otherwise.

Why machine where you cast

One supplier, one record, fewer handoffs

  • No handoff between casting, machining and finishing vendors
  • Porosity found at machining goes straight back to the casting process, the same day
  • One inspection record covers the finished part
  • Fewer freight legs and less handling damage
