We support everything from single-piece prototype runs to small-to-medium batch production. Molds, core boxes and core-pulling mechanisms can be custom designed from customer drawings or 3D models, balancing accuracy, surface quality and cost-effectiveness.
Highlights of our sand-casting molds:
- Multiple sand systems available: green sand (natural clay), resin sand (phenolic, furan), cold-box hardened sand, etc., to meet different flowability and surface finish requirements.
- Capable of producing complex cavities and internal cores, with precise control of shrinkage and positioning.
- Cavity dimensions as well as core-pulling and locating structures can be designed per customer requirements to reduce downstream machining.
- Use of high-strength molding sand and/or rib reinforcement designs to ensure stability during pouring, vibration and transportation.
- Provide core verification, trial casting and first-article inspection (including dimensional, visual, chemical composition and mechanical properties testing).
- Can coordinate subsequent machining, heat treatment and surface finishing for one-stop delivery.
Applicable scenarios and industries for sand-casting molds:
- Automotive engine blocks, cylinder heads, transmission housings and gearbox casings.
- Pump bodies, valve bodies and compressor housings.
- Construction machinery parts, mining and oilfield equipment components, and construction equipment parts.
- Energy-saving equipment, marine components and structural parts, and other parts that must bear large loads or contain complex cavities.
