Aluminum Sand Castings for Oil & Gas Equipment
Aluminum Castings for Energy Equipment Manufacturers
Oil and gas equipment manufacturers require dependable components and manufacturing partners capable of supporting specialized equipment.
CMT provides aluminum sand casting and machining capabilities for suitable oil, gas and related energy equipment applications.
Potential Applications
Equipment housings
Pump-related components
Covers
Enclosures
Instrument housings
Motor housings
Mounting components
Brackets
Manifold-style components
Supporting equipment components
Application Suitability
Material selection and component suitability should always be determined based on the engineering requirements and operating environment of the application.
Complex Casting Geometry
Sand casting allows designers to incorporate complex geometry and, where appropriate, internal features produced using sand cores. For especially complex applications, CMT can also evaluate the use of 3D printed sand cores.
Casting + Machining
CMT can support machining after casting for components requiring precision holes, bores, mounting surfaces and other machined features.
Transfer Existing Oil & Gas Casting Tooling
Companies with established aluminum casting programs do not necessarily need to recreate their tooling when changing suppliers. CMT can evaluate existing tooling and develop a transition plan for compatible casting programs.

Domestic Supply for Energy Equipment
Domestic sourcing can reduce supply-chain complexity and improve communication between OEM engineering teams and their manufacturing suppliers. CMT provides U.S.-based aluminum casting and machining support from the Midwest.
