I just submitted my application to the Tell City location..I my life never has working in a foundry ever came to mind..but wow! This is the first time I have seen and heard the commitment this company has to it's product and the faith of their employees. I hope I get the chance to experience this first hand..and do my part to make sure these products drive out any possible competitors and increase market share above and beyond their current market share. ..
I never made it past one year LOL in fact I even forgot that I wrote this comment. But in the time that I did spend there I was adamant on not making it a career.
I've been CNC machining in Lake mills WI for 20 years, and Waupaca produces the most quality, and consistent casts I have ever worked with. You can tell they care about what they send out.
Are you still looking for people to hire at your ironwood mi location? I really would love a job in this field of work after finding out my dad recently passing away that i never knew was a blacksmith. This is the only thing in our area that has anything to do with metal working so i would be very grateful to work for you. I want to learn as much as possible about foundry work and blacksmithing.
No we do not it'll we work in temperatures that can kill your ass in 45 min if you dont properly prepare I've berm hauled out on an ambulance twice I seen a guy die friend of mine was air lifted to a hospital get burned multiple times a day. We do not get paid enough
Mi papá trabaja ahí ayer estaba llorando nunca lo ví así Se quemó el brazo el cuello y El pecho y trabajan a temperaturas altísimas es un horno No les pagan lo suficiente son esclavos porque en los 2 días que descansa se la pasa pensando en cuando regrese a trabajar Y además trabaja de noche de 5 a 6 duerme de día se le a desatado el insomnio este trabajo es el camino ala tumba
@@pizzahutevo that's terrible sorry to hear that I work for Waupaca it's hard hot a d some asshole bitches run their mouth behind ain't easy but ppl don't believe it and not always u make $ this week closed for labor day we make nothing
Worked at Pelton Casteel for Fifteen Years. Could see the end coming and left to get a degree in Engineering at MSOE. Maynard is the last Steel Foundry in Milwaukee, Sad.
Astonishing that there are still ferrous foundries operating in the United States at this time. Metallurgical engineering is now considered a derelict, obsolete field of study. It has been displaced to countries like India and China and replaced by Materials Science & Engineering which focuses on advanced materials that are mostly non-metallic. For those companies that still require metallurgical engineers in the future they may have to hire people from overseas.
@@AdamMann3D Good for him, not a common career move for most foundry men but at least he is still connected to the industry. I completely gave up on it in the 1980s and immigrated to Canada.
I searched "foundry" on UA-cam and this video appeared on the first page.
Kudos to Waupaca Foundry for making a great video.

I know the lake but not the foundry. Still operating I hope?
I retired from Waupaca plt 1 in 2011. much has changed since after hitachi took over.
I'm trying to think of some asswipe remarks to make, but I can't. This was a really well done video.
Anyone work in Etowah?
I do
But I want to start from the bottom so that I get a full knowledge of every element that ends in the final product that the customer receives.
Very good job....

Anyone who works foundries, NEVER come to maynard steel... horrible place to make a living.

My dad worked at Waupaca foundry in the 80s. He is now a casting consultant for Chinese foundries. Check your info there smart guy.
