Precision Casting for Aluminum Parts Technical Characteristics of Aluminum Casting Precision Casting

The production method of pouring liquid metal into a mold cavity that is suitable for the shape and size of the part and waiting for it to cool and solidify to obtain a blank or part is usually called metal liquid forming or casting.

The processes of aluminum product casting include gravity casting, high-pressure die casting, sand casting, and centrifugal casting.

Casting aluminum alloy has good casting properties and can be made into parts with complex shapes; it does not require large additional equipment; it has the advantages of saving metal, reducing costs, and reducing working hours, and is widely used in the aviation industry and civil industry.

Process characteristics of aluminum product casting

01. It can produce parts with any complex shape, especially parts with complex inner cavity shapes.

02. It has strong adaptability, unlimited alloy types, and almost unlimited casting size.

03. The source of materials is wide, scrap can be remelted, and the equipment investment is low.

04. The scrap rate is high, the surface quality is low, and the working conditions are poor.

Technical characteristics of aluminum casting

01. Suitable for making complex shapes, especially blanks with complex inner cavities;

02. Wide adaptability and low cost;

03. For some materials with poor plasticity, such as cast iron, sand casting is the only forming process for manufacturing its parts or blanks.
