BDG-Service GmbH

Quality and process optimisation
The focus of activities of BDG-Service GmbH are the analysis of quality problems of castings and the production process. Our staff members address themselves to your problems and requests and provide engineering services to support you in optimising your production processes and hence casting quality and process security.





On basis of long lasting experiences in foundry technologies our staff members train your employees in all areas and hierarchical levels of your company within individually compiled in-house tutorials in accordance to your specific needs (material palette, melting and moulding process, production circumstances).

The BDG-Service chemistry laboratory offers all relevant measurement and analysis methods required for the examination of metals, charge and waste materials.
X-ray fluorescence analysis with radiation spectometer
wet-chemical analysis of alloying and micro elment by optical emission spectroscopy
examination of copper alloys
examination of zinc alloys
examination of magnesium alloys
examination of ferro alloys
gas determination of metals and ferro alloys
inspection of refractory materials
analysis of ashes, dusts and sands
examination of foundry materials for dumping behaviour and material utilization

The main purpose of manufacturing and moulding technologies is process enhancement e.g. in fields of mould and core making. Part of this is also the cause analysis of casting defects as a consequence of moulding materials. BDG-Service GmbH is providing an efficient moulding material laboratory, which enables us to run extensive examinations of sands, moulding sands, regenerated materials, additives and consumable materials for mould and core making, in order to establish corrective measures and permanent process improvements.




determination of particle-size distribution parameters by sieve analysis
examination of sands, clay bonded and chemical bonded sands
analysis of bentonites,additives containing corbon hybride and mould coating materials (black coating and black washes)



In moulding material analytics we operate according to BDG guidelines (formerly known as „VDG information sheet“) and German standard methods..
