A foundry ladle handles one of the most unforgiving materials in industrial manufacturing: molten iron, steel or aluminum at temperatures exceeding 2,500°F. For this project, we fabricated a new carbon steel foundry ladle (along with additional items and maintenance repairs) in just two weeks from initial purchase. That quick turnaround reflects Southern Metal Fabricators’ fabrication capability and our understanding of how urgent ladle replacement is in an active casting operation. Note that Southern Metal Fabricators also offers repair plates and rings for foundry ladles.
