Founded in 1959, Newby Investment Castings are part of the Newby Foundries Group, which also includes W.J Hooker and are a lost wax investment casting foundry based in Colchester. The lost wax process is used instead of expensive machinery to produce intricate, precision castings. Our team are well trained and have extensive experience and we can provide our customers with a choice of services as well as being able to offer our expert advice on both design and the specific materials that should be used for each application which can also help save money by removing the need for machining.
Newby Investment Castings products are used by a whole host of different industries in a wide variety of applications including for use in automotive parts, weapons systems, food processing, in the aerospace, marine and petrochemical industries as well as in valve manufacturing.
By using investment casting a net shape can be made for many applications that has a high structural integrity. We can cast a huge choice of metals and the whole process is low cost.
Newby Investment Castings can offer our clients a flexible turnaround time that fits in with their schedule and we are able to offer both design and prototyping services. The surface will be finish will be fine and we can offer repeatable close tolerances. We can also use processes such as painting, powder coating, polishing and heat treatment. Newby Investment Castings adhere to quality assurances EN ISO 9001 rev 2000 registered.
Newby Investment Castings can create complex and intricate items using the traditional wax injection process. We use an aluminium die that has been precision made and then inject it with molten wax. We are highly skilled in this process and can make a huge array of items in this way, using tired and tested techniques that have been proven to work over many years of continued use and improvement.
Newby Investment Castings allows for the contraction in both the wax and metal as part of the die so precision is guaranteed.
Newby Investment Castings use an induction furnace to heat ingots of various metals which can include Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel, Tool Steel, Cast Iron, Nickel Alloys, Cobalt Alloys, Bronze, Brass
or Aluminium. The metal will be melted in the induction furnace until it is red hot and molten at which point it is removed from the oven and poured into the hardened ceramic shell.
Newby Investment Castings are able to prototype a range of patterns using silicone and rubber dies. We can produce both small, preproduction batches to help decide on design and suitability of the product as well as producing production batches that can consist of just a few components or thousands. We are also able to reproduce both obsolete and spare parts from old files, CAD drawings, technical drawings, images or from the actual component itself. We finish our products using a range of techniques that include shot blasting, glass bead, painting, polishing, anodising and powder coating.
