Testing Equipment for Custom Iron Casting

At TXMETAL, ensuring consistent quality for every custom iron casting is our top priority. Our testing equipment covers dimensional accuracy, chemical composition, mechanical properties, and metallographic inspection, allowing us to validate that each gray iron, ductile iron, and austempered ductile iron (ADI) component meets international OEM standards such as ASTM, ISO, and EN. With in-house laboratories and certified inspection processes, we can provide full traceability, PPAP documentation, and batch-specific quality reports for every project.
