What Consolidated Precision Products does

Consolidated Precision Products (CPP) is a private, Cleveland-headquartered manufacturer of complex, high-integrity castings for the commercial aerospace, defense, and industrial gas turbine markets. Founded with origins tracing to Hitchcock Industries in 1916, the company operates 20+ facilities across the United States, Mexico, Belgium, Poland, and Slovakia and employs more than 5,500 people. CPP uses investment casting and precision sand casting processes to produce components in superalloys, titanium, aluminum, magnesium, and steel, ranging from hot-section turbine blades and vanes to large structural airframe castings, naval propulsion parts, and industrial turbine components.

The company's technical platform is built on advanced casting processes — single crystal (SX), directionally solidified (DS), and equiaxed — combined with vertically integrated upstream capabilities. These include Superior Metals Manufacturing (SMM) for vacuum induction melting of superalloys, Poly6 Technologies for additive manufacturing of multi-wall ceramic cores, and AirPower Dynamics (APD) for high-precision wax patterns. This melt-to-cast integration enables CPP to produce some of the largest titanium aerospace castings in the world and advanced SX/DS airfoils that operate above material melting points, serving next-generation engine programs for Boeing 737, Airbus A320, the US Navy, and major engine OEMs.

CPP generates revenue through B2B direct sales to aircraft engine OEMs (GE Aviation, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce referenced), airframe OEMs (Boeing, Airbus), defense customers, and industrial gas turbine manufacturers. Sales are executed under long-term supply agreements and qualified-supplier purchase orders with custom pricing tied to part complexity, alloy, volume, and specification. The company holds AS9100, EN9100, NADCAP, ISO9001, ISO17025, PRI, and ABS certifications across its facilities, and pursues growth through a combination of organic facility expansion (Euclid 2020, SMM 2022, Mazatlán 2024) and targeted acquisitions (Selmet 2018, Poly6 2019, AirPower Dynamics 2024).

Revenue model

1. Precision Casting Manufacturing: CPP generates revenue through the manufacture and sale of highly engineered precision castings for aerospace, defense, and industrial gas turbine applications. Revenue is derived from long-term supply agreements and purchase orders with major OEM customers for both engine hot-section components (blades, vanes) and structural castings (housings, frames, cases).

Products and services

• Airfoil Castings (SX/DS and Equiaxed) Investment-cast turbine blades, vanes, and shrouds for aircraft engines and industrial gas turbines, produced using equiaxed, directionally solidified (DS), and single crystal (SX) processes in nickel- and cobalt-based superalloys, designed to operate above material melting points.
• Structural Investment Castings Complex investment-cast structural components (housings, frames, cases, landing gear components, and other non-rotating parts) produced in titanium, nickel-based superalloys, stainless steels, and air melt alloys for commercial aerospace, defense, and IGT applications.
• Structural Sand Castings Steel, aluminum, magnesium, and stainless steel sand castings for applications including U.S. Navy submarine propulsion systems, industrial gas turbines, valves, airframe structures, and large aerospace structural components.
• Vertically Integrated Vacuum Induction Melting (Superior Metals Manufacturing) In-house Vacuum Induction Melting (VIM) of superalloys supplying molten alloy to CPP casting sites, ensuring consistent alloy quality and supply chain resilience for downstream precision casting operations.
• Multi-Wall Ceramic Core Technology (Poly6) Additive-manufactured multi-wall ceramic cores producing internal cooling passages for investment-cast airfoils, enabling turbine blades to operate above melting point and deliver higher thermal efficiency and reduced fuel burn.

Broad incumbents

• Safran Aircraft Engines: Major aircraft engine OEM (LEAP, CFM56, M88) with in-house casting operations and broad supply chain. Not a head-to-head casting competitor, but a critical customer for airfoil and structural castings and a benchmark for industry capacity additions.
• GE Aerospace: Largest US engine OEM and a major casting customer for CPP across GEnx, GE9X, and military platforms. Operates some casting capability in-house and drives industry capacity standards. A critical customer relationship rather than a casting competitor.
• IHI Aerospace (IHI Corporation): Diversified Japanese industrial conglomerate with an aerospace division that produces engine components including castings. Less focused on standalone casting supply than Howmet/PCC, but overlaps in component manufacturing for Japanese engine programs and increasingly Western platforms.

Others

• Carpenter Technology Corporation: Specialty alloy producer of nickel, cobalt, and titanium alloys that supplies the same superalloy feedstock that CPP melts via its SMM facility. Carpenter is a horizontal peer in materials rather than casting, but its capacity and pricing decisions directly affect CPP's raw material economics.
• Haynes International: Manufacturer of nickel- and cobalt-based high-performance alloys for aerospace, IGT, and chemical processing. Competes with Carpenter and with CPP's SMM melt output as a feedstock supplier to investment casters. A material ecosystem peer rather than a direct casting competitor.

Direct peers

• Doncasters Group: Private precision castings manufacturer for aerospace and industrial gas turbine markets, producing nickel and cobalt superalloy and steel castings. Operates casting facilities in the US, UK, and Germany, and is a frequent head-to-head competitor for engine OEM casting programs.
• Howmet Aerospace: Global leader in aerospace castings, including investment castings, titanium and nickel superalloy components for engine and airframe programs. Directly overlaps with CPP across engine hot-section castings and structural investment castings and competes for the same OEM slots on commercial and defense platforms.
• Precision Castparts Corp (PCC): A Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary historically recognized as the largest global investment castings supplier to aerospace and IGT, with deep SX/DS capability. PCC is the global benchmark CPP competes against for airfoil casting and structural casting slots at GE Aviation, Pratt & Whitney, and Rolls-Royce.
• TITAL (Alcoa/Howmet titanium casting): Acquired by Alcoa (now Howmet Aerospace), TITAL produces titanium investment castings and machined parts for aero engines and airframes in Germany, with comparable customers and capabilities to CPP's Selmet and Pacific Cast Technologies operations.
• Aero Metals Alliance (AMA) / Wall Colmonoy: Mid-sized US precision castings and metal finishing group serving aerospace and defense. Smaller in scale than CPP, but directly comparable in producing airfoil and structural investment castings for the same OEM supply chains.
