Our Story
Customer Focused Investment Casting
Eagle Precision Cast Parts, Inc. is one of three independent companies that make up The Eagle Group. Together, The Eagle Group provides full-service metalcasting and CNC machining services utilizing a wide variety of state-of-the-art tools and techniques.
Eagle Precision Cast Parts, Inc. was founded in 1991 by Mark Fazakerley and John Workman to complement their already successful shell mold sand foundry, Eagle Alloy, Inc. Eagle Precision first sold an investment casting to a military antenna manufacturer that had production requirements of up to 2500 pieces per week. With Eagle Precision’s high level of quality and attention to detail, the company continues to supply this casting to the same customer for the same military application.
Eagle Precision has grown steadily since its inception, and now produces over 1000 different part numbers across many different industries.
Eagle Precision is located on the same Muskegon, MI campus as Eagle Alloy, Inc., and continues to expand its facilities as demand grows. In 2012, Eagle Precision added 15,000 sq-ft to its manufacturing facilities to accommodate increased volume of sales and production levels, bringing total manufacturing space to approximately 55,000 sq-ft. This expansion included increasing the climate-controlled area of the facility from 8000 sq-ft to just over 17,000 sq-ft. Eagle Precision added an additional expansion in 2015 to accommodate continued growth. The new addition increased total manufacturing space to 67,500 sq-ft.
As an investment casting company, Eagle Precision Cast Parts takes pride in their reputation for producing top-quality parts that regularly exceed expectations. However, management can’t take all the credit. Eagle Precision’s employees are what have made it the great company it is today, and their stake in the company continues to increase. This is due to the generosity of the principal owners, who have shared company profits annually with all employees through a profit sharing program. Employees’ buy-in to the success of Eagle Precision also comes from an Employee Stock Ownership Program that transfers a significant portion of company ownership to the employees.
