Cast iron components are generally produced by green sand casting and shell moulding casting. Which one should be chose in real production depends on the budget and exact requirements from the end-users or usage.

▶ Casting Process of Cast Iron:

Green Sand Casting Process. The green sand is basically a wet mixture of sand and clay, no chemical is added. The sand mold is squeezed together and holds its shape. The choice of sand has a lot to do with the temperature at which the metal is poured. At the temperatures that cast iron are poured, the clay gets inactivated by the heat, which is a non-expanding clay. So instead, those that pour cast iron typically work with silica sand that is inexpensive compared to the other sands. Cast iron sand castings have many advantages such as low costs, complex design, high effeciency, and good quality. Sand casting process is a suitable and good choice for iron casting parts unless the special or very high requirements have to be matched.

Shell Moulding Casting Process. Shell mold casting process offers better surface finish, better dimensional tolerances, and higher throughput due to reduced cycle times. The materials that can be used with this process are cast irons, and aluminum and copper alloys. The shell molding process produces cost savings solutions for difficult shapes, pressure vessels, weight sensitive parts, and castings requiring superior surface finishes.
