Overview

Sand Casting Services

Sand casting is a versatile casting process that uses expendable sand molds to create metal components with complex geometries and a wide range of sizes. This method is ideal for producing ferrous and non-ferrous metal parts, including steel, iron, aluminum, and brass.

Sand casting is a cost-effective solution for low to high-volume production, particularly for larger, heavier components that may not be feasible with permanent mold or die casting. While it typically results in a rougher surface finish compared to gravity casting, sand casting offers flexibility in design, material selection, and part size, making it well-suited for a variety of industrial applications.
