Supporting Australia's Foundry and Casting Market
A&G Price supports Australia's metal casting and foundry market from our fully equipped foundry in Thames, with the furnace and melt capacity to handle large-scale casting work for mining, rail, defence and energy customers across the country.
Metallurgy, pattern-making and casting simulation all happen in-house, under one roof, with full traceability of every batch. That means fewer handoffs, tighter quality control and a single team responsible for your casting from specification to dispatch. Our plant runs 24/7, so we're ready to respond to breakdowns and urgent orders.
The capability below shows the scale we bring, from smaller specialty components through to iron castings of up to 3,300kg in a single pour.
Starting with customer specifications, our Foundry Methods engineers convert 2D drawings into 3D models, optimizing for castability using machining allowances and modifications. We use Casting Simulation software to refine techniques and avoid costly trial runs.
Our metallurgists then perfect metal compositions and ensure quality with rigorous lab testing, providing full traceability of each batch. They also design custom metals for specific needs.
Patterns are crafted by skilled tradesmen in our Pattern Shop from materials like wood, plastic, or styrene foam. These patterns are used to create hard sand moulds on the moulding floor. Scrap metal is melted in high-temperature furnaces, poured into moulds, and allowed to cool. After cleaning and shot-blasting, castings are heat-treated, tested, and either dispatched or sent for further processing in our Machine Shop.
