WORSWICK PROCESS ENGINEERING LTD
Engineering Precision in Non-Ferrous Casting
Formerly Worswick Engineering Ltd – Under new ownership since February 2025


Casting Technology Overview

Worswick Process Engineering Ltd designs and manufactures a comprehensive range of non-ferrous metal casting systems, integrating decades of experience with advanced engineering solutions. Our portfolio includes both conventional straight-line (inline) casting machines and our proprietary rotary casting machines, offering a full spectrum of solutions depending on floor space, production capacity, and process layout. All systems are engineered with energy efficiency in mind, incorporating the latest developments in combustion technology to reduce fuel consumption and minimise emissions.

 

 


Rotary Ingot Casting Machines

The Worswick Rotary Ingot Casting Machine is recognised for its compact footprint, high reliability, and user-friendly operation—making it ideal where space constraints exist. Metal can be supplied from either a tilting furnace or a metal pump, and we offer fully automated metal feed systems to eliminate operator dependency.

  • Continuously rotating mould table supported by a central, heavy-duty, low-friction bearing ensures long-term, vibration-free service.

  • Internally water-cooled moulds are mounted on the rotary table. Each mould can be adjusted in two planes for levelling, and can be changed rapidly for alternate ingot shapes.

  • Reversible moulds (two-cavity) are also available to maximise production flexibility.

  • Variable-speed drive allows precise control of production rate.

Straight-Line (Inline) Casting Machines

For operations favouring linear layout or with ample floor space, Worswick Inline Casting Machines provide a classical, rugged solution.

  • Built on a heavy-duty frame with sealed wheels and high-grade, matched-length chains.

  • Designed for continuous or batch production in tough foundry environments.

  • Simultaneous pouring of multiple moulds allows uniform metal distribution and minimises dross formation.

  • Provides consistent ingot weight and quality with minimal variation.

Sow / Jumbo Casting Machines

Worswick's Rotary Sow Casting Machines are designed for high-mass ingot production and employ the same reliable engineering principles as our ingot casters.

  • Mould table diameters range from 4.5m to 8.5m.

  • Fully automated systems include water-cooled moulds with hydraulic ejectors, auto metal feed units, sow transfer arms, and storage conveyors

  • Semi-automated systems feature lifting hooks for crane-assisted sow removal, suited for batch or intermittent operation.Optional non-cooled moulds are available for low-duty applications.

Ball / Stick Casting Machines

Worswick manufactures rotary ball and stick casting machines capable of producing up to 1500 kg/hr.

  • Uses internally cooled moulds for flash-free, weight-consistent casting.

  • Ideal for processes requiring compact dosing or remelt ingots.
