Sand Casting: Reliable Sand Casting from Huaxiao
Sand Casting pours molten metal into reusable sand molds to make large, complex, low-to-medium volume parts at low tooling cost—the flexible default for prototypes and big components.
How Sand Casting Works
A pattern forms a sand cavity; molten metal is poured, solidifies, and the sand is shaken out to free the casting, which is then cleaned and machined.
Sand vs. Die Casting
Sand casting wins on size, alloy range, and low tooling cost; die casting wins on speed, finish, and tolerance for high volume.
Materials
- Aluminum—light housings
- Cast iron—machinery bases
- Steel and bronze—wear parts
Industries
Heavy equipment, pumps, and foundry work use sand casting.
How to Spec Your Sand Casting Job
