About CMI Novacast

CMI Novacast Inc. began as a result of Paul Gouwens' work for Novatome, a French government-owned company. Novatome was an engineering firm that developed nuclear power plants. The first electromagnetic aluminum pump was developed as a spin-off of the liquid sodium pump used for power generation in the breeder reactors. In 1975, the pump concept was brought to the United States through Paul's efforts. Paul recognized the value of this technology as having the ability to revolutionize the foundry industry. That same year, Paul's son Lee joined the company after attending college and majoring in electrical engineering. Years later, Paul purchased the commercial rights to the pump from Novatome, and CMI Novacast began. Together, the father and son team has built a solid reputation for outstanding customer service and support.

CMI Novacast's research and development continues to improve and fine-tune the original technology of the pump system. CMI Novacast's commitment to all customers is to deliver the most reliable, predictable, and high-performance low-pressure or gravity casting system in the industry.
