At Soham Metal Cast, our foundry and forging operations are designed to deliver consistent Grey Iron and Ductile Iron Castings and Forgings with dependable material properties, dimensional accuracy, and surface quality. Every process is controlled to support repeatable production and real-world performance.
We focus on stability, process discipline, and practical manufacturing methods rather than volume-driven production.
Efficient Melting with Metallurgical Control
Our foundry uses controlled melting systems which maintain metal quality and consistency throughout the entire process. The process requires us to carefully monitor three factors: raw material selection and melting temperature and chemical composition.
The approach enables us to create iron castings and forgings which possess stable characteristics and predictable performance for use in demanding industrial environments.
The Foundation of Dimensional Accuracy
High-quality castings and forgings begin with the right moulding or forming process. At Soham Metal Cast, we use multiple methods based on design, weight, and application requirements.
Used for light to medium-weight castings and forgings where repeatability and cost efficiency are important. This process is suitable for components requiring good surface finish and consistent dimensional control.
Green Sand Process
Used for light to medium-weight castings and forgings where repeatability and cost efficiency are important. This process is suitable for components requiring good surface finish and consistent dimensional control.
The system works best with complex medium to heavy castings which require intricate designs. The no bake moulding process provides excellent dimensional stability and improved surface quality, making it suitable for structural and industrial components.

Precision Core Making for Complex Castings
Our core shop supports the production of castings with internal passages, cavities, and complex shapes. We use suitable core-making processes based on product design and dimensional requirements. Each core is produced to ensure proper alignment, strength, and surface quality during pouring.

Clean Finish, Machining-Ready Castings
After casting, components undergo controlled fettling and surface cleaning processes. Shot blasting removes residual sand and scale, while fettling ensures removal of excess material from parting lines and gates.
This stage improves:
Each casting is finished carefully to maintain dimensional integrity and functional reliability.
From melting to finishing, our foundry and forging processes are aligned with industrial standards and customer specifications.
