  Aluminum Casting Fence  Across all of the manufacturing, the question “Which  aluminum casting method  should I use?” can only be solved by asking and answering further questions about the application at hand, the requirements of the project overall, and your needs as a customer. This is as true for aluminum casting methods as it is for any other process. The benefits and applications of using aluminum casting techniques for a project are vast, but there are several further choices to consider when deciding how to cast aluminum parts for your application. In this piece, we'll quickly summarize the differences between the available methods, and provide an easy guide to help you determine the right choice.   Aluminum Casting Methods: The Three Processes Three primary metal casting methods can be used to cast aluminum: die casting, permanent mold casting, and sand casting. The methodology behind each of these metal casting techniques is as follows: Sand casting:  In this method, a m

    Cast Iron fireplaces  are more often than not associated with either the ostentatious, very ornate early Victorian Gothic revival period or the later more subdued architectural influences of the late Victorian and Edwardian period. Late Victorian and Edwardian style fireplaces are characterised by their elongated contemporary linear lines of their design heavily influenced by the work of the Arts and Crafts movement and the then contemporary alternative of curvier stylised flowers, stems and buds, and elegant lines epitomised by the Art Deco and Art–Nouveau design period. Original and reproduction cast iron fireplaces of this period are identifiable by their cast iron hoods raised geometrically sinuous flowers, or elegant sweeping lines, and tile inserts, reflecting a continuous, upwards, and organic movement and growth of natural forms of birds, butterflies dragon flies, flowers, foliage, and even the sun.   The popularisation of the cast-iron fireplace not only marked a turning p

  The most important consideration in  aluminium casting  is the production volume. With the right casting method, your products will be of desired quality in terms of dimensional accuracy, surface quality, thermal and electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, costs of production and tooling, as well as delivery time. However, the annual production volume that can be made with each method is dependent on the requirements and the budget for your product – the production volumes mentioned here are rough estimates.   Small-volume production and prototyping Aluminium Sand casting is a method for low production volumes (1 to 5,000 units per year) as well as prototyping. In this method, molten aluminium is poured into a resin-bonded sand mould to produce castings of all sizes with low tooling costs. On one hand, depending on the type of product, this method might be the fastest method for casting it. On the other hand, the delivery time might be too long to respond to urgent demand, depe

Cast iron is a hard-wearing, high-performance metal that is versatile and can be used for everything from garden furniture to gates and railings. Over time, cast iron items develop surface imperfections that add to their character and give them a particularly period-appropriate appearance. While cast iron can last for centuries, poorly maintained parts can begin to rust and deteriorate. Learning how to restore cast iron is critical to giving new life to old items and reducing the need for wasteful replacement. Restoration of cast iron fireplaces Whether you have an old cast iron fireplace or plan to install an antique design, it may need some restoration work.   Cast iron fireplaces  can be either painted or coated with a protective iron paste or black grate polish - which gives them their signature black finish.   If you're restoring a fireplace that has been damaged or peeling paint, you'll need to remove it with a paint stripper. This is an unpleasant task and requires extra
