Sand Casting FAQs
How do I get a sand casting quote?
Send your CAD files, material requirements, quantity, and machining or finishing requirements. Our team will evaluate the design and provide a suitable casting solution.
How do you ensure sand casting quality?
We control casting processes through material inspection, dimensional checks, and final inspection to ensure parts meet drawing and application requirements.
Can sand casting be used for production parts?
Yes. Sand casting is suitable for prototype development, low-volume production, and industrial components requiring larger sizes or complex shapes.
What is the lead time for sand casting?
Typical sand casting projects require around 15-20 days depending on part complexity, tooling requirements, material, and post-processing needs.
What surface finishes are available for sand cast parts?
Available finishes include shot blasting, machining, grinding, painting, powder coating, and other surface treatments based on part requirements.
What accuracy can sand casting achieve?
Casting accuracy depends on part size, alloy selection, mold design, and production conditions. Critical areas can be CNC machined after casting for improved precision.
What materials can be used for sand casting?
Available materials include aluminum alloys, cast iron, cast steel, stainless steel, brass, and bronze alloys depending on application requirements.
What sand casting services do you offer?
We provide aluminum, iron, steel, and copper alloy sand casting for prototypes, custom components, and production parts with different sizes and geometries.
