NFFS Membership Return on Investment
Affinity Partnerships

Many NFFS programs and services are designed to offer a direct financial return on a company's investment in membership. Affinity discount programs are not uncommon, but some are better than others.

NFFS has established several affinity discounts for member companies that can provide a direct payback of the company's membership investment.

Anyway that a foundry can reduce scrap, improve yield, and minimize lead-times creates efficiency which ultimately reduce costs and improves the bottom line.

NFFS developed a program with MAGMA Foundry Technologies that can help foundries in each of these money saving areas through the benefits of using casting process simulation at a reduced cost.

Members are entitled to the following: A demonstration project will be carried out by MAGMA® Inc. engineering personnel, using MAGMASOFT®, on one of there current production castings at no cost.

This will familiarize NFFS members with how the technology is applied, build confidence with the engineering tool and have information that can be used to discuss possible solutions.

Results will be presented in a PowerPoint format in person either at their facility or ours, no exceptions. Prior, key people at the foundry will be identified for mandatory participation in this meeting.

If additional simulation work would be needed to further improve the current production casting or simulated a new program casting, an engineering service quote would be created.

Each engineering project will be quoted separately with a 25% cost reduction for NFFS members only.
