Products and Markets

The company manufactures metal components and products in three principal business segments: Investment Cast Products, Forged Products, and Fastener Products.

INVESTMENT CAST PRODUCTS

The Investment Cast Products segment manufactures investment castings for aircraft engines, IGT engines, airframes, medical prostheses, armament, unmanned aerial vehicles, and other industrial applications. The segment also provides alloys to its investment casting operations, as well as to other investment casting companies.

The company manufactures structural investment castings, and airfoil investment castings used in jet aircraft engines. It manufactures investment castings for every jet aircraft engine program in production or under development by its key customers. The company also manufactures structural and airfoil investment castings for IGT and aeroderivative engines used for electric power generation and other applications, and it has expanded into the structural airframe and armament markets. In addition, the company makes investment castings for use in the medical prosthesis, satellite launch vehicle, and general industrial markets.

Aerospace Structural Castings

The company’s structural castings business manufactures stainless steel, nickel-based superalloy, and titanium investment castings, as well as various medium and small structural castings. These castings are stationary components that form portions of the fan, compressor, combustor, and turbine sections of a jet aircraft engine, where strength and structural integrity are critical. Structural investment castings are sold primarily as original equipment to jet aircraft engine manufacturers. The company also serves the structural airframes market through the production of components manufactured primarily from titanium and aluminum alloys.

Aerospace Airfoil Castings

The company manufactures precision cast airfoils, such as the stationary vanes and rotating blades used in the turbine section of jet aircraft engines. This part of the engine is considered the ‘hot section,’ where temperatures may exceed 2,400 degrees Fahrenheit. The company uses various casting technologies to manufacture turbine airfoils. A conventional casting process enables the company to produce equiaxed airfoil castings, in which the metal grains are oriented randomly throughout the casting. An advanced process enables the company to produce single crystal (SX) airfoil castings, which consist of one superalloy crystal without grain boundaries. In addition, the company has developed a process to manufacture titanium aluminide blades.

IGT Castings

The company is a supplier of investment castings used in IGT engines. In addition to IGT components, it manufactures structural and airfoil castings for aeroderivative gas turbine engines, which are also used for power generation, as well as for other commercial and military land and marine-based applications.

Other Investment Casting Products

The company’s investment casting technology also has various appl

ANALYSIS FEATURES

SWOT Analysis

SWOT, which stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats, is an analytical framework that identifies the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable for a company.

Enhanced SWOT Analysis

Enhanced SWOT is a 3×3 grid that arranges strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats into one scheme:

• How to use the strengths to take advantage of the opportunities?
• How to use the strengths to reduce likelihood and impact of the threats?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that obstruct taking advantage of the opportunities?
• How to overcome the weaknesses that can make the threats a reality?

Upon answering these questions a company can develop a project plan to improve its business performance.

PESTEL Analysis

PESTEL (also termed as PESTLE) is an ideal tool to strategically analyze what influence different outside factors – political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal – exert on a business to later chart its long term targets.

Being part of the external analysis when carrying out a strategic assessment or performing a market study, PESTEL gives an overview of diverse macro-environmental factors that any company should thoughtfully consider. By perceiving these outside environments, businesses can maximally benefit from the opportunities while minimizing the threats to the organization.

Key Factors Examined by PESTEL Analysis:

• Political – What opportunities and pressures are brought by political bodies and what is the degree of public regulations’ impact on the business?
• Economic – What economic policies, trends and structures are expected to affect the organization, what is this influence’s degree?
• Sociological – What cultural and societal aspects will work upon the demand for the business’s products and operations?
• Technological – What impact do the technological aspects, innovations, incentives and barriers have on the organization?
• Environmental – What environmental and ecological facets, both locally and farther afield, are likely to predetermine the business?
• Legal – What laws and legislation will exert influence on the style the business is carried out?

IFE, EFE, IE Matrices

The Internal Factor Evaluation matrix (IFE matrix) is a strategic management tool helping audit or evaluate major weaknesses and strengths in a business’s functional areas. In addition, IFE matrix serves as a basis for identifying and assessing relationships amongst those areas. The IFE matrix is utilised in strategy formulation.

The External Factor Evaluation matrix (EFE matrix) is a tool of strategic management that is typically utilised to assess current market conditions. It is an ideal instrument for visualising and prioritising the threats and opportunities a firm is facing.

The essential difference between the above mentioned matrices lies in the type of factors incorporated in the model; whilst the latter is engaged in internal factors, the former deals exceptionally with external factors – those exposed to social, political, economic, legal, etc. external forces.

Being a continuation of the EFE matrix and IFE matrix models, the Internal External matrix (IE matrix) rests upon an investigation of external and internal business factors integrated into one suggestive model.

Porter Five Forces Analysis

The Porter’s five forces analysis studies the industry of operation and helps the company find new sources of competitive advantage. The analysis surveys an industry through five major questions:

1. What composes a threat of substitute products and services?
2. Is there a threat of new competitors entering the market?
3. What is the intensity of competitive rivalry?
4. How big is the bargaining power of buyers?
5. How significant is the bargaining power of suppliers?

VRIO Analysis

VRIO stands for Value, Rarity, Imitability, Organization. This analysis helps to evaluate all company’s resources and capabilities and bring them together into one aggregate table that includes:

• Tangible resources
  • Financial
  • Physical
  • Technological
  • Organizational
• Intangible resources
  • Human
  • Innovation and Creativity
  • Reputation
• Organizational capabilities

The result of the analysis gives a clear picture of company’s competitive and economic implications, answering the questions if the resources mentioned above are:

• Valuable?
• Rare?
• Costly to imitate?
• Organized properly?
