Futuristic general engineering implies improved productivity, smart functionality and sustainability. Precision casting of metal parts for general engineering is the process to make the parts with precise finishing. One can achieve accurate size and shape of engineering parts and excellent surface finish only with precision casting. These casted parts, in turn give shape to futuristic general engineering. As we are talking about precision casting, how can we not mention leading precision casting manufacturing companies? Austin Alloy Cast, which employs more than 250 employees at the world class foundry set-up back in India is one of the prominent manufacturers.

Why choose only precision casting?

As mentioned above futuristic general engineering will be more advanced with smart functionality and improved productivity. Finishing quality of the metal parts used in general engineering is the crucial matter. Having blemishes, defects, porosity, uneven or unfinished surfaces in your metal components can lead to impaired productivity. Precision casting or investment casting process produces metal parts with excellent surface finish. Moreover, precision casted parts are visually appealing and look better than any parts manufactured using other processes.

Apart from finishing quality, precision casting can handle complex shapes of the components which are used for general engineering.

For all the reasons one should choose precision casting for manufacturing of general engineering metal parts or components. It is also important to choose the right foundry which can handle the process very well. Austin Alloy Cast offers a complete solution to manufacture your general engineering parts under one roof. Austin has expertise in gear blank casting, rope fitting components, marine transducer housing, rail coupler lock lift assembly, lantern, etc.

When you choose feinguss casting for your metal parts project, the first thing that comes to your mind is to find the right foundry to take over the projects. India is the best country to source for your feinguss casting project requirements. Going for Feinguss in India will have many advantages. But, how to choose the right foundry for your requirements?

Feinguss is a lost-wax casting in which a molten metal is poured into a mould that has been created by means of a wax model. The process requires following steps:

Tool making

Wax Injection

Pattern Assembly

Shell Coating

Dewaxing

Pouring

Shell removing

Heat treatment

Finishing

Final Inspection

There are more than 10 casting processes used for casting metal parts in different industries worldwide. Each casting process has its own advantages and qualities to fit for certain requirements. Moreover, different metal parts have different complexity. So, choosing the right process for that complexity is very important. Here, in this blog we are going to give you detailed insight of two metal parts casting processes – Sand Casting (SC) and Investment Casting (IC) with the case studies.

While the sand casting process involves sand to create a mould for casting of metal, investment casting involves wax pattern to create a mould. But, that’s not the only difference between the processes. Sand casting suits for the low-volume production runs and for large components. However, investment casting is a time taking process due to more steps than sand casting involved in it. Sand casting is a suitable process for large parts while investment casting is the suitable process for medium to large parts. Investment casting is capable of producing complex parts with excellent surface finishes. And that’s why the investment casting process is also called ‘precision investment casting process’. A near net shape finish achieved by investment casting reduces the need for machining which helps save your overall project cost.

Why should you convert your process from Sand Casting to Investment Casting?

1. When you want near net shape and better surface finish for your metal components.

2. When there is a requirement to produce complex shape casting.

3. When you don’t have more time for machining or secondary processing (polishing, trimming, etc.)

4. When you want to incorporate logos, product IDs, numbers or texts onto the surface of your metal parts.

5. If you are facing problems in the sand casting process like porosity, etc.

Case Studies of our clients converted Sand Casting (SC) process to Investment Casting (IC):

One of our customers from Europe converted to an investment casting process from sand casting process for hydraulic cylinder products. They were getting cost benefit due to near et shape finish and lower need of machining. Converting to investment casting (IC) also helped them to get a better surface finish (aesthetic look) than sand casting.

One of our customers from Turkey converted from sand casting due to better lead time and found the pricing we offer very competitive for investment casting (IC).

An American company using a sand casting process was facing a quality issue (porosity) which made them look for another process option. They consulted us about the issue. Our consultative approach helped them find the solutions and they converted from sand casting to investment casting for their project. We successfully delivered them in bulk.
