Reliable, cost-effective,UK based manufacturingAt Thomas Dudley, we understand the need for organisations towork with trusted suppliers.

As such, we provide a reliable, cost-effective, UK based source ofmanufacture for high quality grey and ductile iron castings.

We have been manufacturing castings since 1920 and call uponunrivalled expertise to engineer bespoke solutions for customersrepresenting most industry sectors.

Outstanding serviceOur success has been built upon a unique ability to deliver anoutstanding service by working with customers throughouteach project.

We can also provide the complete engineering, design anddevelopment service or alternatively, simply use your existingpatterns.

In addition, we can choose from 6 automated moulding linesincluding a new Disamatic facility and airset capabilities toprovide the perfect production platform.

Assured qualityThomas Dudley offers assured product quality.

We manufacture in the UK and are a quality accreditedorganisation. Best practice methodologies are employedthroughout our foundry and are underpinned by stringent qualityprocedures and Six Sigma.

Our Advanced Thermal Analysis System (ATAS) enables us tocarefully monitor and control melt quality to consistently ensurethe integrity of our grey and ductile iron.

Rigorous post production testing is also undertaken.

Security of supplyThomas Dudley offers an extremely secure source of supply fromour Black Country foundry in the heart of the West Midlands.

Employing around 400 people and generating revenuesexceeding £30 million, the Thomas Dudley Group is established,successful and financially robust.

We also invest heavily in technology and as such, are able tocontinually improve, adapt and evolve with the businesses ofevery customer.

Cost-effective casting solutionsThomas Dudley has the expertise to engineer the completecompetitive, value for money solution.

In addition to selecting the most cost-effective method ofmanufacture, we call upon extensive on site logisticalcapabilities to produce components in large volumes and storethem on behalf of customers.

Proactively stock controlling these components, we can thendeliver in smaller batches, allowing customers to free up cashflow and allocate other valuable resources elsewhere intheir businesses.

Manufacturing flexibility andthe ability to deliver toextremely short lead times

An Unrivalled ServiceAs you would expect from one of the UK’s leading engineeringfoundries, Thomas Dudley provides the complete castings service.

From initial brief to design, manufacture and delivery, we workclosely in partnership with customers throughout each stage ofa project.

Design and developmentAs a member of the highly successful Thomas Dudley Group,we are able to take advantage of resources, research, designand development capabilities that are simply beyond mostother foundries.

Thomas Dudley’s team of technical specialists and designengineers can develop new casting designs or modify your ownexisting CAD files.

Our fully integrated design and prototyping facilities include:

■ CAD/CAM including SolidWorks modelling that is directlylinked to CNC pattern making equipment

■ In-house tool room, pattern shop and core making facilities

■ In-house laboratory equipped with spectrometer, sand testing,metallographic and physical testing technology

ManufacturingOur foundry operates six automated moulding lines includinga new Disa production facility equipped with automatic pouringtechnology alongside air set moulding capabilities, all of whichare supported by cupola and electric melting.

This provides a unique ability to respond rapidly to customerrequirements and manufacture high quality components in allgrades of grey and ductile iron.

We also have the ability to manufacture the most intricatelyshaped castings ranging from the size of a 50p piece up to120Kg in weight as one offs or in large production batches.

FinishingOnce we have manufactured castings, a comprehensive range offinishing serviced can be provided.

Castings can be supplied painted, coated, enamelled and in arange of specialist finishes. We can also deliver castings inbespoke packaging and produce sub assemblies by integratingcastings with other existing components.

MachiningOur in-house machine shop can undertake precision drilling,automated grinding and machining whilst purpose built shotblasting equipment allows even thin section castings to beaccurately prepared.

Warehousing and stock controlOur extensive warehousing facilities allow us to producecomponents in large batches and call off and deliver smallerquantities as and when they are required.

This allows customers to take advantage of the most costeffective manufacturing batch sizes without tying up valuableresources in stockholding and storage.

DeliveryBased in the heart of the West Midlands, Thomas Dudley isperfectly positioned to deliver castings quickly to every part ofthe UK.

In addition, our customer focussed transport strategy ensuresthat castings can be delivered nationwide within 48 hours ofmanufacture.

Unlike less flexible suppliers, we can also deliver at weekends oroutside standard working hours to suit any given requirement.

“Customer Endorsements

“When we needed to source bespoke cast ironrailing stanchions for a major new build

contract, Thomas Dudley provided the perfectsolution. They worked with us to complete

the project in eight weeks and the service theyprovided throughout was exceptional.”

Pudsey Diamond Engineering Limited.

“Although we needed to find a new lesslabour intensive method of production, it was

essential to retain the original productcharacteristics. Thomas Dudley understoodthis and identified a design that could beeasily moulded out of cast iron. We aredelighted with the results of the project

which has helped us keep pace withgrowing demand.”

Hotpod LLP.

“Our old process was both time consumingand expensive. We therefore decided to

explore the possibility of producing our newgear shifters as an SG iron casting. We aredelighted with our decision to work with

Thomas Dudley. The new parts offer assuredquality and have enabled us to achieve

significant cost reductions with ourmachining costs being cut by around 75%.Thomas Dudley’s support and engineering

input have been invaluable.”
