Symposium Cast Shop Technology
Presentation Title The Origins of Wagstaff Inc. Part 2- Aggressive R&D
Author(s) Frank Wagstaff, Robert B. Wagstaff, Samuel Wagstaff
On-Site Speaker (Planned) Robert B. Wagstaff
Abstract Scope Wagstaff, Inc. grew as the manufacturing capabilities developed into mainstream large-scale computerized numerical control (CNC) machining centers, sometimes even ahead of the commercial machine tool manufacturers. This unique capability positioned the leadership to take on new market opportunities in extrusion ingot, large format rolling slab ingot, and forging ingot as advances in tribology, surface segregation and heat transfer hit the scientific journals in the 1990‘s. The development of new technology based on these scientific advances positioned the company to deliver cutting-edge aluminum solidification technology to the curious but cautious aluminum industry well into the next century. Eventually, the technologies grew and developed into concepts that outpaced the comfort of the owners; thus, they sought a suitable industry partner.
