Green Sand Casting material
costs are low and this process is very flexible. The molding
sand and additives are reclaimable, with between 90 and 95%
of the sand being recycled. New sand and additions are
required to make up for the discarded loss. |

Our Molding Process
C & L Aluminum Foundry, Inc.
uses the Green Sand molding method. Green sand molding
combines the advantages of versatility, productivity and low
cost for the production of quality castings.
Our castings range in size from 1 to 250 lbs. Our
horizontal molding flasks range in size from 12”
square to 40” square, 16” over 16”. Larger
castings sizes can be produced upon special request.
To insure quality, a computerized sand delivery and
mulling system, which precisely controls the
moisture and bentonite additions, has been installed
recently.
At C & L Aluminum Foundry, Inc. cores, used in casting and molding processes to
produce internal cavities, are made in the shell and
No Bake processes. |
