Sand casting is a pretty neat way of making an engine block. Engine blocks are sort of the heart of a car — they house all the critical innards that help the car run effectively. The Boqiao team enjoys using sand casting because it allows us to manufacture strong engine blocks that have a long service life.

Why Sand Casting Is Widely Used To Produce Engine Blocks

Sand casting is an old idea, and it’s still a viable method to make engine blocks today. Sand casting is popular because it can be light, easy, not very expensive. At Boqiao, we really like sand casting equipment because everything is very easy and fast and we can make a lot of engine blocks.

The advantages of cost of sand casting

It’s a cheap way of making engine blocks with sand casting. The materials required for sand casting are very easy to find and not too expensive. That means we can produce plenty of engine blocks without breaking the bank. The Boqiao team understand that if we use sand casting machine, we can be saving money, saving money means we can provide to them great engine block products at more affordable price.

Strong Engine Blocks And How Sand Casting Holds The Key

“We develop really strong parts when we sand-cast engine blocks. This is because the sand mold that we use is capable of being subjected to high temperature and pressure without malfunction. The outcome is a block that will tolerate the rough road. We at the Boqiao team are proud of the life-span that's given to our engine blocks when we cast them in sand.

The Process of Producing Engine Blocks By Sand Casting

Sand casting an engine block is a process that takes time and patience. We then cast an engine block in green sand with some help from man's best friend. " We pack that sand around the pattern to create a mold that casts the liquid metal into the shape of the engine block. When we have poured the metal and it has cooled, we break the sand away and expose the completed engine block. The Boqiao team pay strict attention to every procedure throughout the producing process, quality control, and the final product control.

The Sustainable Side of Sand Casting

It is green to sand cast because it creates so little waste. The sand we use is also something we can recycle and re-use multiple times, helping to cut waste. Related, the metals involved in sand casting can be re-melted and used again, so it’s good for the environment. The Boqiao team is also a friend of the environment, always ensuring that its engine blocks are made with sand casting foundry.
