Few Types of Aluminum Casting Defects and How to Treat Them
The occurrence of defects in sand-castings is usually higher than other manufacturing methods due to the sheer number variables that come into play during the process. In foundries, turbulence during mold filling, contact of molten metal with a (usually cold and damp) sand mold and subsequent solidification means that there are many opportunities for something […]
SAND CASTING: KNOW METAL CASTING PROCESSES ACCORDING TO YOUR REQUIREMENT
Sand casting is an extremely flexible process that can benefit from economies of scale when large production runs are needed but is also reasonably flexible to produce complex parts that usually replace several assembled and/or welded components. Molds produced with silica sand have enough temperature resistance and mechanical strength to cast nearly every metal used […]
Advantages of Brass and Bronze Casting Services
Copper alloys are widely used in engineering and aesthetic applications. In technical applications, these alloys are usually specified for their unmatched corrosion resistance, electric conductivity and low friction with other metals. For decorative and related applications, it is sought after mainly for its ability to produce a polished reddish or golden finish which stands the […]
Types of Sand Used in Metal Casting
Sand casting is an extremely flexible process that allows for production runs ranging from a single prototype or replacement casting (one-off) to outputs of thousands of units per month. Binder and base sand selection are critical to minimize the upfront capital expenditure and price per unit, it’s important that designers and buyers are aware of […]
Stainless Steel Castings Composition and Microstructure
The term stainless steel (SS) is used to encompass a wide array of materials with varied physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. For the design engineer, it is essential to identify the different alloys available, their properties and the equivalent casting grades that correspond to the well-known wrought formulations. In more detail, stainless steel may be […]
Stainless Steel Production and Processing
Stainless steel is a metal that has a lot of applications when it comes to manufacturing various parts for different types of machines and equipment. Stainless steel has strength, durability, wear resistance, and especially outstanding corrosion resistance in a wide range of environments. Stainless Steel is a large family of alloys that contain a variety […]
Different Types of Stainless Steel and Casting Process
Stainless steel casting is a specialized process that results in the casting or shaping of different types of steel. A steel casting foundry produces steel castings, which can be categorized into two major groups, namely alloy and carbon steels. Stainless steel sand casting is a preferred alternative to iron casting when cast irons simply cannot […]

Copper nickel alloys also come in a wide range of product forms, making them perfect for different fabrication requirements. Some of the most distinguishable properties of copper nickel alloy include high resistance to […]
Benefits of Stainless Steel Casting
Whether you are using a unique element or metal, the content of stainless steel alloy is considered worthwhile as compared to other alloys. Thanks to the massive disparity in constituents, all forms of stainless steel casting are possible. Generally, stainless steel casting uses a ceramic mold that can yield a much smoother finish on the […]
