Grainger and Worrall Designs,Makes, Innovates Your Future

In the past the traditional approach to casting development was by largely trial and error. This would involve producing a casting gating system by a foundry engineer’s best estimate, then if this failed, a second, third etc version would be produced until a satisfactory casting was achieved. 

We apply many approaches to rapid prototyping depending on the product production
requirements. Sometimes a hybridised rapid prototype is best, sometimes full rapid
prototyping is best, our experience in this complex field will add value to your program. Read more...

Tool making is a core competency of Grainger & Worrall and we are one of few foundries to
resource and manage this entire activity in house. Both our pattern making facility and design capability is continually expanding to support our customers demand for directly milled high quality resin patterns and tooling up to fully automated production core-box rigs. Read more...

Our unique position in the market place has provided both insight and experience into the delivery of quality assured complex precision machined components across the automotive, aerospace and affiliated sectors.

Grainger & Worrall Machining has developed a capability to machine high feature content Cylinder Heads and Engine Blocks without using traditional Horizontal techniques. Whilst our Horizontal approach offers cycle time advantages in the production environment, it also presents some disadvantages in the small batch and prototype environment.

Grainger & Worrall managed procurement outsourcing provides second tier supplier management and quality assured machining services in support of its high quality castings. Typically this reduces product development costs and allows our customers to focus on the overall product rather than managing additional subcontract service providers.
