Welcome to Clinkenbeard

Clinkenbeard is the worldwide leader in the rapid production of complex cast and machined parts using a wide variety of plastics and metals. We couldn't find a word in the American dictionary which accurately defined the speed at which we do business, so we developed a prototype...Fasterestest. We think it fits perfectly.

Time to market is a critical measurement for today's OEM. It determines how efficient and effective manufacturers are in developing, implementing and producing ideas.

The Clinkenbeard® Toolingless Process is industry reknown for producing metal castings efficiently, affordably and extremely fast. The process is based on machining sand cores and molds without the expense of tooling. All machining is done using CNC, which produces superior speed and accuracy.
