Automatic line open to new customers
IATF 16949 certification obtained
From design to coating under one roof

Ünsal Makina, which has been manufacturing power transmission components in Kayseri since 1972, put its foundry in the spotlight at ANKIROS this time. The company, which produces pulleys, couplings and taper bushes, began casting parts for machine manufacturers beyond power transmission over the past two to three years. At the fair, we spoke with General Manager Doğan Ünsal and Deputy General Manager Mahmut Ünsal.

“We manufacture in the power transmission sector. With our foundry investments in particular, we are also starting to serve the casting sector. (…) We came to this fair with our identity as a foundry,” said Doğan Ünsal. This year the company also took part in CastForge, the casting trade fair in Europe.

Automatic line open to new customers

The company’s goal at ANKIROS was to bring the production capability of its automatic line together with new customers in Türkiye and abroad. The HWS–Sinto FBO-type line produces moulds in 600 and 700 sizes and runs at a capacity of 60 moulds per hour. The line can cast grey iron and ductile (spheroidal graphite) iron.

IATF 16949 certification obtained

Mahmut Ünsal described the latest step on the quality side: “We obtained IATF 16949 certification, particularly for our castings on the line. It was a quality certificate we considered important for tracking and archiving quality in a sustainable way. We have made it part of our organisation. Along with this, we are working to establish a place in the casting sector.”

Ünsal described the casting sector as “an exciting sector that is always open to development” and said they had made good contacts at the fair. The company plans to exhibit its new products at upcoming fairs as well.

From design to coating under one roof

Doğan Ünsal highlighted the company’s integrated structure: “From design and modelling to casting, machining, surface coating and engineering services, our customers can obtain all of these from us. We do all of it in-house. And we can test and report on all of it.”

Ünsal Makina produces at two locations. The plant in İncesu Organised Industrial Zone (OIZ) operates entirely as a foundry, while the main factory in Kayseri OIZ houses machining and management units. Sixty percent of the foundry’s output goes to the company’s own needs and the rest to external customers. Because the two factories are each other’s customers, the foundry knows from its own experience what external customers expect from a part.

According to the company’s website, its facilities cover a total of 30,000 m² and its products are exported to 32 countries from Europe to South America.
