Aluminium Airset Sand Castings

It is a cast component in Aluminium or Brass, Zinc or Gunmetal and is formed by having either Wood or Resin patterns. It’s worth noting that Resin Patterns have an affinity with airset moulding, this affinity works extremely well when Resin patters are used instead of wooden patterns.

The Airset processes has a chemical make up of Resin and catalyst, together they form with the silica sand to create a rigid Airset mould thus allowing the manufacturer to achieve repeatability in quality and surface finish. Using an Airset Sand core positioned in the Airset mould cavity produces the internal configuration.

  • Airset Sand Casting moulded can be either in Aluminium, brass, Zinc or gunmetal.
  • Small volumes or Proto-type of Airset Sand Castings can be produced.
  • Moulded Airset SND Castings can also produce large and intricate shapes and still maintain quality parameters.
  • Airset Sand Castings moulded with particular attention to achieving quality accepted surface finish and thus keeping manufacturing cost down to suit our customers.
  • Constant monitoring of the grain sizes of the Silica Sand used in process of Airset Sand Castings.
  • Moulding sand is reclaimed and monitored enabling good Airset Sand Castings to be produced.
  • Monitoring of Airset Sand Castings for quality.
  • Airset Sand Castings are less expensive than conventional moulding i.t Green Sand moulding. Pattern equipment needed for Airset Sand Castings are less expensive to that of Gravity Die-casting.
