I can recommend Hoosier Pattern Inc. to anyone in need of pattern equipment for small to medium size molding operations. This would include all Disamatic Molding Machines. Hoosier Pattern has also built many core boxes for various types of shell core machines in the past few years and all of the tooling I have worked with has performed well.

Hoosier Pattern combines the three necessary ingredients needed to keep customers happy: Cost of tooling, on time delivery of tooling and quality in the form of dimensions and construction.
