Sand Casting |
Sand casting is a casting method in which the mold is made of sand to produce castings. The molding material for sand casting is widely available, inexpensive, and the equipment is simple and easy to operate. It is not limited by the type of casting alloy or the shape and size of the casting, and is suitable for various production scales. Therefore, sand casting is the most widely used casting method, with sand-casting parts accounting for about 80% of all castings.
The process of sand casting is shown in Figure below. First, a pattern is made based on the part drawing, and then a sand mold is made by using the pattern and the sand mixture. For castings with hollow shapes, a core box and a sand core are also needed to be made by using the core box and the sand core mixture. Then, the molten metal is poured into the mold cavity. After the molten metal solidifies in the mold cavity, the sand mold is knocked off, and remove the casting riser and running system. Finally, the casting is cleaned of any residues, inspected, and can be delivered as the required casting.
Leesh holdings owns 2 automatic production lines for casting steel and casting iron.The materials we supply are Carbon Steel, Alloy Steel, Stainless Steel, Grey Iron, and Ductile Iron in accordance with the specifications of ASTM, SAE, AISI, ACI, DIN, EN, ISO, and GB standards. The mass range from few kilos to dozens tons.
Resin Sand Casting
Resin sand casting offers a cost-effective route and is the most traditional sand casting processes. This renders it a common choice between manufacturers and project leads. The material used is sand that’s bonded by water and clay—and best of all, it’s recyclable.
In the resin sand casting process, resin and sand are first mixed together. Following that, the mixture is self-hardened through chemical reaction to produce exceptionally hard molds.
Precoated stack sand casting,also called shell mould sand casting
This process similar to sand casting, in that molten metal is poured into an expendable mold. However, in shell mold casting, the mold is a thin-walled shell created from applying a sand-resin mixture around a pattern. The pattern, a metal piece in the shape of the desired part, is reused to form multiple shell molds. A reusable pattern allows for higher production rates, while the disposable molds enable complex geometries to be cast.
This process very suitable for higher surface finish requires, higher tolerance requires, smaller parts
