Sand Casting

Advantages of Sand Casting
1. This non ferrous metal casting has low tooling cost.
2. The largest casting sizes are achievable
3. Very low gas porosity is possible
4. General versatility of the non ferrous metal casting process is good
5. The obvious feature of the sand casting is to produce the complex non-ferrous metal parts however the surface finish and tolerances of the finished casting are poor.

Application of Sand Casting Process
1. This kind of non ferrous metal casting process can be used in the production of small numbers of castings and a large number of non-ferrous castings.
2. This casting process is used to produce a variety of metal parts with complex geometrical shapes. These parts include gears, belt pulleys, crankshaft, connecting rod and propeller components.
3. The sand casting is also applicable to the production of engine bearer, engine manifolds, cylinder cover and gear box in the industries of automobiles, lathes, shipbuilding and locomotive.

Description
Sand casting, as the most widely used casting process, utilizes the removal of sand molds to form metal components. This type non ferrous metal casting process can use any alloy material, such as aluminum alloy, copper alloy, magnesium alloy, alloy steel, carbon steel, nodular cast iron, gray cast iron, stainless steel and titanium-zinc alloy.
As the most popular casting technology when manufacturing the non ferrous metal castings, this sand casting offers the simplest method by pouring molten zinc, aluminum or copper into a sand mold.
