Rangeview
Robotic foundry for aerospace and defense investment castings
The product
Robotic, software-defined investment-casting foundry: customers send a CAD file, Rangeview's process turns it into ready-to-pour molds and ships finished superalloy castings in ~12 days. Specializes in nickel/cobalt/superalloy parts for aerospace and defense.
The thesis
Investment casting is a critical bottleneck for missile, jet engine, and turbine production — and most U.S. capacity is aging and under-staffed. Rangeview is the El Segundo answer to rebuild it with robotics and digital tooling.
How it runs
Operates an advanced investment-casting foundry that takes customer drawings, alloy requirements, and quantities through digital, toolless production into rapid first articles and production superalloy parts. Robotics, software, and digital tooling are integrated with domestic foundry operations.
How it earns
Earns project and parts revenue from quote-based custom castings, funded component-development programs, and production or MRO contract awards for aerospace, defense, and energy customers.
Why it wins
A toolless, software-defined casting process can compress first-article timelines from months to weeks while producing complex geometries in flight-grade cast superalloys; its U.S. foundry capacity also addresses a documented defense supply constraint.
