The in-house coordination of all manufacturing processes allows us to guarantee that our clients get the highest quality and precision in their solutions.
Highest safety
We turn in all our components and pieces with a certificate of absence of radioactive elements thanks to the strict monitoring of applicable regulations.
Excellent machinability
The renowned metallurgical quality of our products guarantees an excellent machinability in our clients’ lines
Automotive, industrial and agricultural
Gray iron (FGL)
Gray iron with laminar graphite alloys specifically according to each project’s requirements to achieve traction‑tolerances ranging from 200 MPa to up to 300 MPa.
Industrial and agricultural
Compacted Graphite Iron
Compacted Graphite Iron with SinterCast® technology for pieces with high mechanical needs to reach traction-tolerances ranging from 400 MPa to up to 450 MPa.
CGI manufacturing experts
What does CGI mean?
Compacted Graphite Iron is a kind of Gray iron with graphite in a vermicular form which allows us to obtain mechanical properties (hardness, traction‑tolerance…) superior to that of conventional Gray iron with laminar graphite
What kind of experience do we have here at TIF?
This material was developed and patented by Sintercast® at the beginning of the 90’s.
From the minute that first equipment was installed at Tafalla Iron Foundry in 2003, we have consistently improved our technology in close collaboration with Sintercast®.
Process details
Our CGI manufacturing system abides by the ISO 16112 guideline and guarantees an adequate composition, including 0 to 20% nodularity and more than 90% pearlite. The process includes the customized addition of magnesium and inoculating agents in each ladle, with an automated addition system and a meticulous monitoring of results in our ISO 9000 database to guarantee the product’s quality and traceability.
Innovation projects
Currently, we are involved in a CGI prototype manufacturing project for 6 cylinder motor blocks and cylinder heads for one of our clients.
