Casting

Product Description

Casting is a manufacturing process where liquid metal is poured into a mold and allowed to cool and solidify into a specific shape.it has mainly three types.

Die casting is a manufacturing process in which molten metal is injected under high pressure into a steel mold (die) to produce precise and high-quality metal parts. Common metals include aluminum, zinc, and magnesium.

Sand casting is a process where molten metal is poured into a sand mold and allowed to solidify. The sand mold can be reused or destroyed after casting.

Investment casting involves creating a wax model, coating it with ceramic or refractory material to form a mold, then melting the wax away and pouring molten metal into the mold.

Advantages

1. Complex Shapes

Casting can create intricate and detailed geometries that are difficult or impossible to achieve with machining or fabrication.

2. Wide Material Options

Works with many metals and alloys, including aluminum, steel, iron, zinc, copper, and magnesium.

3. Cost-Effective Production

Ideal for both small batches and mass production. Tooling costs are balanced by efficient large-scale manufacturing.

4. Excellent Material Utilization

Minimal waste, as molten metal fills the mold directly.

5. High Strength and Durability

Cast parts can achieve strong mechanical properties and long service life.

6. Size Flexibility

Supports production of very small components to very large, heavy parts.

7. Good Surface Finish

Processes like die casting and investment casting can produce smooth surfaces with minimal post-processing.
