Sand Casting

Sand casting packs sand around a pattern to form a mold, suited to very large and heavy parts at low tooling cost. Huaxiao delivers sand casting as part of our ISO 9001:2015 certified Casting capabilities — from rapid prototyping to high-volume production, with full dimensional inspection and material certification on every order.

Sand Casting - precision sand casting services by Huaxiao, ISO 9001:2015 certified metal manufacturing

What Is Sand Casting?

Sand Casting forces molten metal under high pressure into a precision steel die, producing complex, dimensionally stable components in a single shot. Huaxiao’s Sand Casting service covers aluminum, zinc and magnesium alloys for high-volume production.

Because the die defines the geometry, thin walls, internal passages and fine features are reproduced consistently part after part. We add CNC machining and surface finishing in the same flow to deliver ready-to-assemble castings.

Our Sand Casting Capabilities

Backed by 15+ years of precision manufacturing experience and a vertically integrated workshop:

Complex One-Piece Shapes
Our Sand Casting casts intricate geometries and internal features in a single part.
Wide Alloy Choice
Aluminum, zinc, iron and steel alloys matched to your performance needs.
Volume Economy
Tooling investment pays off quickly at production scale.
Machined & Finished
Optional CNC machining and surface treatment in one continuous flow.

How Sand Casting Works

From drawing to finished part, our Sand Casting process follows four controlled steps:

1
Die Design & Build
We engineer the die for fill, cooling and ejection, balancing cycle time against part quality.
2
Melting & Pouring
Alloy is melted, degassed and held at temperature, then injected or poured into the die.
3
Solidification & Ejection
The part cools, the die opens and the casting is ejected with runners and gates removed.
4
Trim, Machine & Finish
Excess is trimmed, critical features are CNC-machined, then finishing is applied.
