I have been involved in the foundry industry for over 40 years and am the president of H.A. Burrow Pattern Works Inc. I have worked with commercial and aerospace foundries in both ferrous and non-ferrous alloys and with sand and investment foundries. While mainly being tooling oriented, I was heavily involved in working with foundries to produce high quality aerospace sand castings, evaluating not only tooling but all facets of the foundry processes. I have also worked extensively in the investment casting processes. I am involved with the designing of casting tooling, straightening and targeting fixtures and machining holding fixtures. And work directly with customer engineers to establish manufacturing parameters and processes for cast, fabricated and machined components
