Sand cast products

Have you ever considered how we get the beautiful and intricate things from sand? The artists at Boqiao produce a great many items such as these beautiful jewelry pieces and incredible sculptures through the use of an intricate process that is referred to as sand casting. In this process we have to follow a first step, Siguiient into the thrill begins and it is melt metal up in you go liquid. This molten metal is at an incredibly hot temperature! From there, we take the red hot metal and pour it into a sand-based mold which forms our desired product. As the metal heats up, liquid-metal (molten) pours inside and cools down which shapes itself into that sand mold. It can only be peeled away by putting the mass of dirt into a slumpy pile of earth and gently removing each piece surrounding your special, one off piece.

Foundry sand casting is a process that demands skill and attention to detail in order for the finished product to meet your requirements. At Boqiao, the artists start by creating a template for what they would like to produce Boqiao Low Pressure die cast machines model is like a prototype, preview of the final product. They mix sand with a viscous material and earn some special concoction. Pour this mix over the model to form a mold. The sand is then left to set, and the model artists can carefully remove it from the mould and a perfect shape will be formed in the silt. That is the shape of what your final product will look like. From there the mold goes in an oven where it gets nice and toasty. The mold is packed in green sand and then fired at around 2044°F (1120°C) which hardens the molding providing enough strength for further handling.

The intricate process of sand casting

Now, here comes the fun part! The mold is filled with sand, and then the hot metal in molten state poured inside. The Boqiao Gravity die casting machines must be able to go and fill all of the small spaces, otherwise the end result would not turn out perfect. After the metal has cool enough, we remove the sand and see that final result of forged piece part. Then our amazing artists finalize the item to ensure it highlights all those great little details, and shines bright. Making a beautiful sand cast piece that people will love is with no doubt, as aforementioned, not an easy thing to do.
