OUR COMPANY
ABOUT D.W. CLARK
From early beginnings in 1902, serving our customers and continually innovating with advancing applications and the technologies castings support, have provided the foundation D.W. Clark has been built on. Our continued growth has been driven by relationships and commitments to our customers. While we strive to get each new casting right on the first run, what matters more is our ability to creatively solve challenges. We work closely with our customers from prototype stage to production runs to emergency shortages. Our production system has been built on versatility and responsiveness. The process and systems we use continue to evolve supporting the need for ever advancing materials, requirements and designs.
We are focused on providing the best solutions for our customers, striving to deliver quality and cost effectiveness on every project by offering value-added services like machining and non-destructive testing measures. Engineering know-how powers every alloy we cast and encourages us to always look for new, better and cost-effective ways to meet the most challenging casting requirements.
What’s more, the modernization projects underway at D.W. Clark position us as a leader in supplying advanced alloy castings from prototype through production. At our new sand casting facility, we’ve installed a second large format 3D mold printer for precision sand castings that will offer larger sizes, upgraded dimensional accuracy and surface finishes. This 3D mold printing casting capability will add considerable capacity to meet our customer needs for prototype, first run and low volume orders, as well as act as an effective option for printing cores in combination with traditional patterns to lower costs on production runs and offering more complex geometries.
