Sandcasting

Sandcasting is carried out using a mechanised carousel casting unit which produces production quantities, small batches and prototypes. Sarginsons has the capability to take a ‘solid model’ CAD image – STEP, Iges or Catia file – and our technical experts carry out state-of-the-art magma flow simulation. Working with you and your designers we develop an analysis of the flow of the molten metal into the casting cavity, and this simulation determines the position of ‘metal in and out gates’ in the pattern. This gives you the ability to produce prototype and sample castings, allowing you to assemble a new product for test evaluation prior to production quantities being produced or expensive gravity, low pressure or high pressure tooling being manufactured.
