    • Expands manufacturing capabilities with a leading centrifugal casting foundry
    • Enhances Wieland’s portfolio of extruded and cast products to meet evolving customer needs
    • Drives growth in key sectors such as aerospace, oil & gas, and defense

    Wieland has acquired Techni-Cast LLC, a leading centrifugal-casting foundry based in South Gate, California. Founded in 1954 and family-owned for three generations, Techni-Cast is recognized for its operational excellence, deep technical expertise, and strong reputation for quality in demanding markets. The company operates two production sites, employs around 100 people, and holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and AS9100 certifications, essential for aerospace suppliers.

    Techni-Cast’s capabilities go beyond casting. In addition to melting and centrifugal casting, the company provides comprehensive finishing steps such as heat treatment and precision machining. Its equipment includes several CNC machines for tight-tolerance machining, as well as conventional lathes for deburring cast parts. This enables Techni-Cast to deliver fully processed components ready for critical applications. The company works with a broad range of alloys, including brass, bronze, stainless steel, and nickel-based materials. With casting diameters up to 52 inches and weights up to 4,000 pounds, Techni-Cast serves sectors such as aerospace, oil & gas, marine defense, and heavy industrial applications.

    The integration of Techni-Cast enhances Wieland’s U.S. manufacturing footprint and complements its existing portfolio

    of extruded and cast products. This acquisition reinforces Wieland’s commitment to delivering high-quality, sustainable solutions and meeting customers’ evolving requirements.

    "This acquisition strengthens our centrifugal casting capabilities and welcomes a highly skilled team that shares our dedication to quality and customer service. Together with Techni-Cast, we will accelerate growth in North America and ensure critical components remain produced domestically, securing supply chains for key U.S. industries” said Dr. Erwin Mayr, CEO of the Wieland Group.

    The transaction closed on December 31, 2025, marking another milestone in Wieland’s strategy to expand its North American presence, advance its leadership in semi-finished products, and strengthen domestic manufacturing for critical applications.
