Machining’s Eric Jacob. Te Saginaw, Mich., U.S., customer supplies Tier One automotive companies as well as end users in aerospace, defense and the medical market. “We’re not a high volume shop. We do custom one-off pieces up to two or three hundred,” he said. A recent project involved con- verting a sand cast and machined aluminum steering assist component to an investment casting. “We buy various types of castings, and the quality of the


prototype they provided was heads and shoulders above everybody else. Timing was spot on and it was very well accepted by our customer,” said Jacob. His team works directly with Aristo Cast’s engineers through onsite and virtual meetings, ensuring casting designs that match both the end use and the optimal manufacturing process. Ziemba has
