Iron castings are created by molding molten iron or iron alloys. Gray iron has been cast by foundries for centuries, making it possibly the oldest of all worked metals. It is also the most abundant metal material and one of the least expensive.
Gray iron was the original cast iron, although it has recently been replaced in many applications by other iron-carbon alloys with stronger tensile strength. Ductile iron, as its name suggests, is more ductile than traditional iron materials, like gray iron. These materials tend to be brittle and prone to fracture under high tensile stress.
Cast iron is much like any other metal, it is poured into a mold and extracted after it cools. There are several different casting methods through which iron is molded, including green sand molding, shell molding, and centrifugal molding. The method by which the iron is cast can have an effect on the mechanical properties of the metal, especially in respect to its cooling rate.
Iron castings are widely used in the automotive, appliance, agricultural, and machinery industries. Cast iron components can be found in pump housings, electrical boxes, engine blocks, and decorative castings, among others.
Kylin is an exported foundry in Ningbo China. We use the processes of Investment-casting, precision casting, Lost wax casting, Lost foam casting & sand casting to produce mainly spares of the pumps, mining equipments, construction machinery, and transportation equipments like trains & ships. We use mainly the materials of common carbon steel, alloy steel, manganese steel, stainless steel, and high-Cr & wear-resist Iron.
Refer to investment casting, precision casting, lost wax casting & lost foam casting, the weight we could produce is from 0.5kg to 100kg. For steel sand casting, the weight we could handle is from 30kg to 3000kg. Both casting techniques above, we have 4 intermediate frequencies furnaces each, the capacity is from 500kg to 1000kg.
Our foundry established with heat-treating and machining shops, specializing in products designing, producing and trading. The annual export reaches at 20000 tons. Goods are mostly exported to America, Canada, Australia, UK and other countries. Till now, we have got a good impression from our customers.
In order to ensure the quality of our products, Kylin built a lab which has the equipments, X-ray tester, CMM, Spectrum Analysis Instrument, Metallographic Examination Instrument, Magnetic Particle Inspector, Hardness Tester, Impact Test Machine, and Univeral Strength Tester etc.
Finally, we welcome you to visit and establish long-term business relations. Our tenet is: honest cooperation, progress together, keep high-level quality & explore future together.
