Prototype Casting
Flexibility in production allows for high quality castings in a wide range of size and shape. We pour a wide range of alloys and utilize two types of sand systems in order to offer the customer the right combination of alloy and process to fit their needs.

Prototype Systems Inc.-LaSalle serves as strategic partner with Prototype Systems to create a modular tooling system used in pre-production operations.

Z Corporation-LaSalle is a certified partner for the ZCast Direct Metal Casting process. It provides the ability to produce cast metal parts from a CAD file significantly faster and less expensively than traditional prototype casting methods.

Production
Productivity solutions are generated by utilizing years of experience along with Lean Manufacturing processes. LaSalle has the experience and capability to take your ideas and turn them into castings with high quality, speed and at a competitive price.

Sand Casting

Using the sand casting processes, our molding and core making experts create castings of outstanding dimensional stability and superior appearance. Consistent melting practices and constant chemical and physical properties testing ensures high quality standards.

The sand casting process is precise, versatile, and cost effective. It can be utilized for castings ranging in size from a few ounces to many tons. Dimensional control and consistency in sand castings ranges from about +/-0.030 to +/-0.125 inches.
