Aluminum Bronze Sand Casting

Aluminum Bronze sand casting represents our most versatile and widely utilized casting process, capable of producing large and complex components with excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish. This traditional yet refined casting method employs high-quality silica sand mixed with specialized binding agents to create robust molds that can withstand the high pouring temperatures required for Aluminum Bronze alloys. Our sand casting facility features automated molding lines, precision pattern equipment, and advanced sand preparation systems that ensure consistent mold quality and dimensional stability. The process accommodates component weights ranging from 0.5 kg to 500 kg with wall thicknesses as thin as 3mm, making it ideal for producing pump housings, valve bodies, marine hardware, and industrial machinery components. Our experienced molding technicians utilize both green sand and dry sand molding techniques depending on the specific requirements for surface finish, dimensional tolerance, and production volume.

Aluminum Bronze Investment Casting

Aluminum Bronze investment casting, also known as precision casting or lost-wax casting, delivers exceptional dimensional accuracy and superior surface finish for intricate components requiring tight tolerances and complex internal features. This sophisticated casting process utilizes ceramic shell molding technology that allows for near-net-shape production with minimal machining requirements. Our investment casting facility is equipped with automated wax injection systems, robotic shell building equipment, and controlled atmosphere furnaces that maintain precise temperature profiles throughout the casting cycle. The process excels in producing components with wall thicknesses as thin as 1.5mm while maintaining dimensional tolerances of ±0.1mm, making it perfect for aerospace components, precision marine hardware, and critical industrial parts. Investment cast Aluminum Bronze components exhibit excellent mechanical properties due to the rapid solidification achieved through ceramic shell molding, resulting in fine grain structure and enhanced strength characteristics.

Aluminum Bronze Centrifugal Casting

Aluminum Bronze centrifugal casting employs rotational forces to produce cylindrical components with superior metallurgical properties, excellent surface finish, and enhanced mechanical strength throughout the component cross-section. This specialized casting technique is particularly effective for manufacturing bushings, sleeves, pipes, and cylindrical components where uniform wall thickness and high-density material structure are critical requirements. Our centrifugal casting equipment includes horizontal and vertical spinning machines capable of handling mold diameters from 50mm to 800mm with lengths up to 2000mm. The centrifugal force generated during casting eliminates porosity, segregation, and inclusion defects while promoting directional solidification that enhances the mechanical properties of Aluminum Bronze components. This process is especially valuable for producing marine propeller shafts, pump sleeves, bearing bushings, and hydraulic cylinder components that require exceptional wear resistance and structural integrity.
