Quality You Can Trust

Our commitment to quality is the foundation of every pour. Through advanced testing, process control, and continuous improvement, Anderson Foundries ensures every casting meets exact standards for performance and durability.

  • Weekly sand tests for metallics, grain fineness number, ignition test loss, tensile strength, sand chemical calibrations
  • Melt lab analysis to control metal composition
  • Liquid metal temperature testing
  • Material testing & metallurgical analysis
  • Visual work instructions for each casting to ensure conformance
  • All foundries are ISO 9001 compliant. Muncie Castings is 9001 certified.

Our Capabilities

We don’t just manufacture castings. We build relationships that last. Our team’s engineering mindset, responsiveness, and commitment to quality set us apart. Every project is backed by American-made pride and a partner-first approach.

 

Engineering Design

Our advanced engineering services combine 3D CAD modeling and MAGMA solidification simulation to deliver precision, efficiency, and confidence from the start. By identifying potential issues early in the design and tooling stages, we dramatically reduce downstream scrap, shorten lead times, and ensure you receive high-quality, production-ready castings faster than ever before.

Grey & Ductile Iron Castings

Dakota Foundry produces grey and ductile iron castings from ounces up to 5,000 lb. Gray iron (2–4% carbon with graphite flakes) offers great machinability, compressive strength, heat transfer, and vibration damping; we pour classes 30, 35, 40, and 45 at 30–45 ksi tensile and 170–255 BHN. Ductile iron (graphite nodules) delivers steel-like strength and toughness with better ductility; we pour grades 60-40-18, 65-45-12, and 80-55-06 at 60–80 ksi tensile, 40–55 ksi yield, 6–18% elongation, and 143–255 BHN.
