Permanent Mold Casting
The permanent mold process represents a sophisticated casting technique where our molds are built from chromium copper and H13, which replace traditional sand molds. This method enables the repeated production of numerous castings, making it ideal for high-volume manufacturing. Initially heated to around 500°F, the molds are then filled with molten metal. To facilitate easy removal of the cast parts and prevent adherence of the metal to the mold, a proprietary solution is applied to the interior surfaces of the mold. The heat transfer of the mold material ensures rapid solidification of the liquid metal.
Once solidified, the mold halves are separated to extract the casting, after which the mold is promptly prepared for the subsequent casting cycle. However, regular replenishment of the ceramic coating becomes necessary after several cycles to maintain casting quality and mold integrity.
