Methods of Stainless Steel Casting

Our stainless steel sand casting process employs several methods to ensure optimal results:

1. Green Sand Casting: Utilizes moist sand mixture for mold creation, ideal for high-volume production.
2. Air Set Sand Casting: Uses chemically bonded sand for improved dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
3. Shell Molding: Employs resin-coated sand for excellent surface finish and tight tolerances.
4. Investment Casting: Also known as lost-wax casting, offers superior surface finish and complex geometries.
5. Centrifugal Casting: Ideal for cylindrical parts, providing dense, high-quality castings.
