The McKenna Groups’ engineering capabilities include the development of new parts with current or new customers and the continued improvement of existing parts. The companies key to success is its capability of being able to engineer be-spoke castings managed from a unique drawing, developing not only a dimensionally accurate, metallurgical precise casting but also a cosmetically pleasing product.

The engineering team in conjunction with the Systems and Quality Department focus on the manufacturing methods and process controls for new and existing castings. This includes tolerances, operation times, batch sizes, numerous process control checks and types of runners that can best manage metal flows.

During the engineering stage the customer is always involved with the development of their parts and has a key role in some of the decisions that are made about the process, quality and product design.

 

 

 

 

 

Once samples have been manufactured our Engineers inspect the castings and review the process. Parts are checked for quality against very tight standards and specifications along with strict reject and rework limits. Stringent testing of all aspects involved within the manufacture of castings ensures that the McKenna Group manufactures a product of the highest Quality Without Compromise.

Having proven the process our customers are required to complete a Sample Approval Sheet. Once this stage is completed the castings will be ready for manufacture.

Because The Mckenna Group maintains a philosophy of continuous improvement our Engineers are constantly innovating production methods in response to new techniques, machinery and changing standards. This makes The McKenna Group a very competitive, versatile and responsive company.
