Foundry & Fabrication have been using the greensand machine moulding technique as part of its sand casting uk foundry processes for many years. Indeed the process itself has not changed significantly since the company first became a sand foundry uk based supplier.

Using this basic sand foundry uk process to create your sand casting uk has many distinct advantages over other methods of aluminium casting uk manufacture. Obviously, one of the principal concerns to many customers is the cost of pattern equipment. This is sometimes referred to as tooling. For information on how Foundry & Fabrication can assist our customers with tooling please see our toolmaking page.

The pattern equipment used in greensand production can be made at a far lower cost than that of aluminiujm die casting uk. This makes it very suitable for medium sized batches of production. Another attribute that makes greensand machine moulding favourable to our methods is the high level of re-use which means it is a very environmentally safe process.

Greensand machine moulding is used to great effect when fine detail is required from the finished part whether producing an aluminium casting uk or other non ferrous metals. The nature of the sand enables intricate engraved features or text to be displayed on plaques or signs.
