What Procss for Sand Casting?

metal factory machine

  • Pattern Making: A model (pattern) of the desired part is created using wood, metal, or plastic.
  • Mold Preparation: Sand mixed with a binder (e.g., clay or resin) is packed around the pattern to form the mold. Cores may be added for hollow sections.
  • Melting and Pouring: Molten metal is melted in a furnace and poured into the sand mold.
  • Cooling: The metal cools and solidifies in the mold, taking the shape of the cavity.
  • Shakeout: The mold is broken to retrieve the solidified casting.
  • Cleaning and Finishing: The casting is cleaned, excess material is removed, and final finishing (e.g., machining) is performed as needed.
