How 3D Printing Improves the Sand Casting Process
Sand casting has been into use since quite a long time. For those who don’t know what exactly sand casting is, it is a technique through which many parts from aluminum, iron, steel, and other metals are made by pouring the molten metal in the sand moulds, and letting the metal cool down to form […]
Comparing and 3D Printing Processes for Sand Casting
Sand casting has been used for a very long time in the designing and constructing of structures from machinery to other kinds of complicated structures. It normally involves a mold and a cast for people to create required structures in various industries. Convectional sand casting is the old model of casting that was used by […]
Know the Effective Preparation and Properties of Lead Free Copper Alloy Castings
The use of lead in various materials and applications has been strictly regulated on the global scale due to its health hazards. Leaded metal alloy castings, such as copper alloy casting have long been widely used as plumbing products because of their superior pressure-tightness, fine machinability, and high mechanical properties. As such, there has been […]

These are highly durable, versatile metals that can be used for a wide range of applications and manufacturing productions.Brass is a metal alloy that contains zinc as principal alloying element while bronze […]
How To Form Complex Castings With Sand Molds
Beauty comes with pains; this saying is true to a great extent when it comes to producing beautiful and unique items. From cutlery sets to iron pots, all require great work and craftsmanship on the part of the producer. And the same goes for the sand casting companies who work towards making many items and […]
Know the Key Benefits of Copper Alloy Casting
Copper is one of the oldest and most widely used metals that dates as far back as the prehistoric times. In fact, copper is said to have been mined for over 10,000 years, as evidenced by a copper pendant that was found just recently in Iraq, dated 8700 BC. Not long after this time, copper […]
Understanding the Differences between Sand Casting and Die Casting
Die casting and sand casting are the two methods that are most commonly used to cast metals, although they are not the only ones out there. However, it is interesting to note that many people who interact with different foundries actually have no idea about the differences between the two processes and many of them […]
How to Do Aluminum Sand Casting
Sand casting is among the most cost-effective and quick casting methods in creating metal prototypes, making it ideal for crafting low to medium volume of parts that may not require precise repeatability in shape. Moreover, it can be practical for creating huge objects that may be difficult to produce using mass production methods.Aluminum sand casting […]
3 Cost-effective Casting Sands for Foundries
One of the oldest forms of mass-producing goods by replication, sand casting has allowed different industries to grow and prosper over the years. Before sand casting, companies replicated prototypes in different ways and there were always slight variations in the replica when compared with the original. Sand casting allowed companies to make replicas that are […]
Why You Need to Opt for Lead-free Casting
Sand casting process has been used for a long time. Lead used to be one of the most widely used metals for sand casting. It was popular for a long time until some researchers found how toxic the metal could be for the environment. Once the negative effects were discovered, many businesses tried to look […]
