Newer software is making it easier for our engineers to pinpoint defects, run simulations and produce higher-quality castings. We talked with casting engineer James Lyle about this software and the custom parametrics some of our Lawton sites are using. #solidification #simulation #software #lawtonstandard #calawton #quality #efficiency #parametrics

A very interesting new initiative to get more people into the casting industry. The partnership is creating programs at two universities, as well as workshops, boot camps, apprenticeships and internships. Check out and sign up for the METAL program below.

Happy #MoltenMonday Iron makes up over 5% of the Earth’s crust and almost all of the Earth’s core. We don’t have that much iron at C.A. Lawton, but we sure know how to make high-quality iron castings. #calawton #lawtonstandard #iron #earth

Happy Independence Day! Did you know the Continental Congress officially approved declaring independence from Great Britain on July 2nd? John Adams wanted July 2nd to be known as Independence Day… instead, it’s July 4th when members of the Congress started signing the Declaration of Independence. Have a safe and happy 4th of July! #calawton #lawtonstandard #america #independence #foundry
