A reusable metal mold is used and the most common process uses gravity to fill the mold, however gas pressure or a vacuum are also used in this process.  A variation on the typical gravity casting process, called slush casting, produces hollow castings. Common casting metals are aluminium alloys, magnesium, and copper alloys. Other materials include tin, lead, and zinc alloys and iron and steel alloys are also cast in graphite molds. The gravity process begins by preheating the mold to 150-200 °C (300-400 °F) to ease the flow of metal and reduce thermal damage to the casting, when metal is poured into the mold cavity.
Prior to the hot metal entering the mold cavity, it is coated with a refractory material or a mold wash, which prevents the casting from sticking to the mold and also prolongs the mold life.  Any sand or metal cores or components are then installed into the die and the mold is clamped shut. Molten metal is then poured into the mold and soon after solidification, the mold is opened and the casting removed to reduce chances of hot tears. The process is then started all over again, but preheating is not required because the heat from the previous casting is adequate and the refractory coating should last several castings. Because this process is usually carried out on large production run work-pieces, sometimes automated equipment is used to coat the mold, pour the metal, and remove the casting.


Designing Dies for Permanent Mold Casting

When dies are designed, they vary from part to part and alloy to alloy, however when designing a mold, one can allow for some venting usually through the slight crack between the two mold halves, but if this is not enough then very small vent holes are used. They are small enough to let the air escape but not the molten metal.  A riser must also be included to compensate for shrinkage. This usually limits the yield to less than 60%.
Sometimes, mechanical ejector pins are included in the mold when coatings are not enough to remove casts from the molds. These pins are placed throughout the mold and usually leave small round impressions on the casting.

What is the Difference Between Gravity Casting and Sand Casting?

There are a wide range of key differences regarding gravity casting and sand casting. The main differences lie in the mold and how it is structured. Sand casting is accomplished by shaping a mold from a sand mixture and pouring molten liquid metal into the cavity in the mold. The mold is then cooled until the metal has solidified. It is essentially an expendable mold casting process since the mold is destroyed after its initial use. Additionally, sand casting allows for smaller batches to be made compared to permanent mold casting, which is designed for larger runs and is costlier.
Conversely, gravity casts can be used repeatedly to make identical parts. This type of reusable mold casting is highly useful for applications that require numerous production runs of the same part. The initial investment costs are a bit higher than sand casts, but the costs generally make up for themselves due to the extended usage factor.

Ensuring a High-Quality Surface Finish

The metal is poured at the lowest practical temperature in order to minimize surface cracks and porosity. The pouring temperature can range greatly depending on the casting material; for instance, zinc alloys are poured at approximately 370 °C (698 °F), while Gray iron is poured at approximately 1,370 °C (2,500 °F).
We take all these things into consideration when designing molds for this process. For more information about permanent mold castings.

Steel Castings and Forgings for Industrial Applications

Steel parts, regardless of castings or forgings, offer material characteristics that are required for high strength applications.
Industrial vehicles use many steel castings in the finished products from parts that weigh grams to parts that weigh thousands of tons.
Steel castings and forgings are used by many different industries including:
  • Heavy Equipment - Construction, Farming & Mining
  • Machine Tools - Machining, Casting & Plastics Molding
  • Plant Machinery - Chemical, Petroleum, paper, Sugar, Textile, Steel & Thermal Plants
  • Electrical Machining Equipment - Motors, Generators, Pumps & Compressors
  • Hardware - Plumbing Industry Pipes, Joints, Valves & Fittings
  • Household - Appliances, Furniture, Kitchen & Gardening Equipment

Steel Alloy Characteristics

Steel alloys have different characteristics depending on their elemental makeup, but in general alloy steel is mainly used for industrial applications due to its:
  • Strength
  • Hardness
  • Toughness
  • Wear Resistance
  • Corrosion Resistance
  • Hardenability & Hot Hardness
  • Machinability and forgeability
  • And More

Steel Alloy Plating Services

Steel castings and forgings are lower in cost than non-ferrous alloys, but since they are steel, secondary plating or finishing is most often needed to protect parts from corrosion and rust. RH provides a variety of plating and finishing metal options including:
  • Chrome
  • Nickel
  • Tin
  • Zinc
  • Powder coating
  • Painting
Nothing protects the investment you've made in your steel alloy product better than a metal plating, or metal finish from RH Metal.

Steel Alloy Shapes

Extrusions, Drawn Shapes, Laser Weld Fused shapes, and hot/cold rolled shapes

Steel Alloys are also used for many steel shape applications due to their high strength, durability, and versatility. Some of their industrial uses include:
  • Window & door frames
  • Door & lock hardware
  • Pump & valve fittings
  • Architectural components
  • Material Handling Equipment (Construction cranes, forklifts, etc.)
