Aluminum alloys make a superior choice for the creation of a diversity of parts. Known for its corrosion resistance, durability, resiliency and strong electrical and thermal conductivity, aluminum is the metal of choice for the creation of parts for the automotive industry, residential use and small machinery, among other applications. At Gamma Foundries, our aluminum sand casting capabilities enable us to deliver production runs of all sizes. From single part replacements to orders in the thousands, our foundry has the capability to pour a selection of aluminum alloys to meet a variety of requirements.
Gamma Foundries has been a leading provider of aluminum sand casting services in Canada and beyond Canada for decades. Our facility is fully equipped to tackle smaller orders through the use of Sinto and Hunter automatic molding equipment. We also offer no-bake floor molding for larger volume orders and have rapid prototype services available to brainstorm unique part solutions. Simply dedicated to delivering quality with every order, our foundry has its own onsite lab, tensile testing capability and other safeguard built into the process.
Gamma Foundries has gathered enough experience while engineering, stocking and distributing aluminum sand casting products in Canada and beyond. Sand casting associated with aluminum is majorly used to manufacture non- ferrous metals. Our experts interact with clients and arrange for the materials required in aluminum sand casting based on the nature of the desired product. At Gamma Foundries, we are equipped with the latest technologies for manufacturing aluminum sand castings in green sand, and we will satisfy all your aluminum requirements.
At the site where we do aluminum sand casting, our furnaces are customized to conduit uniform transfer of heat to all areas of the castings that are highly resistant to corrosion, heat, abrasion, and wear. We can generate castings up to 1500 lbs. in weight. The aluminum parts are heat treated to provide high tensile strength. Our cast parts are typically used in engines, motors, pumps, and valves.
Confirmed, aluminum has a maximum strength-to-weight ratio that is about one third the weights of cast steel, iron, brass, and zinc. With supper corrosion resistance, lessened processing phases, and the ability to anodize burnish, electroplate and powder coat, aluminum castings make it more reliable and time saver. Since aluminum weighs less, it has the ability to produce stronger and thinner walled parts. We have discovered that sand mold casting is the most efficient and cost-effective method of modifying metals into the desired shape. Aluminum casting has a paramount ability in their applications.
