In foundry operations, the quality of the casting pitch and mold directly dictates the quality of the final metal product. Defects like penetration, burn-on, and poor surface finish can lead to high rejection rates.
Incorporating our White Silica Fume into foundry casting pitches and mold mixes delivers tangible improvements:
- Smoother Casting Surfaces: The fine particles create a tighter mold surface, resulting in castings with excellent dimensional accuracy and a superior finish, reducing cleaning and machining time.
- Extended Mold Life: Molds and cores gain increased hot strength and resistance to metal penetration, allowing for more casts per mold.
- Reduced Veining and Finning: The improved thermal stability helps prevent cracks caused by thermal expansion, leading to fewer casting defects.
Empower your foundry to produce higher-value castings with greater efficiency and yield.
