Why Choose Sand Casting?
Sand casting is the most commonly used casting process because of the cost effectiveness of the process and the availability of raw materials. Sand casting is a process where the molten metal is poured into a mould made of sand. It is best suited to low-volume or complex non-ferrous castings or large ferrous castings.

We are able to produce complex sand-casting moulds by hand using Greensand for smaller quantities and Resin or Petrol-Bonded Techniques using a semi-automated or automatic Horizontal Moulding Machine (DISAMATIC) process for larger quantities.

Sand Casting Benefits Include:

Low tooling costs and fast set-up compared to other castings techniques.
Complex and intricate castings can be achieved with multiple internal cores.
Up to 75% of the sand used in the process is possible to reclaimed.
High production efficiency (average of 200-300 units per hour).
More flexible castings methods depending on quantities.
Practically possible to cast any material, including those with a high melting point.
