Watry Industries, LLC

About Watry Industries, Inc.


Watry is located in Sheboygan, Wisconsin and occupies a 271,800 square foot plant employing over 150 people. Watry Industries utilizes technology to produce the best quality castings in the most efficient manner possible and is a major supplier to manufacturers around the country and the world. That is why Watry Industries remains the first choice, the single-source foundry of many casting buyers today.


Our permanent mold process fits in between the high-pressure die.


Cast and sand casting methods with cost-effective tooling. While providing higher integrity castings with excellent repeatability. Lower annual quantities are generally served by sand casting, with cheaper tooling. While high volume is satisfied by high pressure die castings with extremely high tooling costs.


We offer permanent mold, semi-permanent mold tilt pour as well as low-pressure permanent mold.


CNC Machining


Your parts are heat treated, ground, inspected and fully machined to your exact More... specifications utilizing one of our high speed horizontal or vertical CNC machining centers.


 Powder Coating


 With our 7 stage wash system and new state of the art Paint Booth, we can paint the most demanding geometries and meet virtually any paint specification.


 We utilize fully automated paint guns for precise repeat-ability or manual guns for smaller production runs and color samples.


 Part and Tool Scanning


 We just added a scanning laser to verify sample parts or tooling to the 3D CAD model.


 With this tool, we can proactively monitor tool wear and reduce potential dimensional problems. Full capability for 3D digitizing, 3D modeling, point cloud inspection, reverse engineering etc.

Griffin Industries

Founded in 1983 by Thomas Krouth, Griffin Industries was among the first pattern shops in the United States to use emerging CNC technology to manufacture foundry tooling. In its early days, Griffin Industries specialized in making plastic prototype tooling for plaster foundries, as well as green sand and shell tooling for hydraulic valve body castings. Over the years, in response to our customers_x0092_ needs for machining of the parts we tooled, we added more vertical, as well as horizontal, and CNC lathe capabilities. 


In 2004, a second generation assumed the management of Griffin Industries. Thanks to the previous years of very careful, deliberate planning, this transition has been very successful. Since 2004, Griffin Industries has enjoyed two separate building expansions which quadrupled the size of our original building. We have continued to be very progressive in adding to our CNC, CMM, and RP capabilities. 


In 2009, we expanded and renovated our front office area to include much needed More... offices and conference rooms for our growing engineering staff. We now have the facilities, equipment, staff, and systems in place to continue the growth that has blessed us through the years. We are very grateful to our team members and to our customers, without whom we could not do what we so enjoy doing.
