Product Description
A fixture casting for a large automotive manufacturer.
Step 1
A wooden pattern was produced from customer supplied drawings. Most of the

Step 2
Casting the mould. The sand sand system uses an Alkali Phenolic Resin to bind
the sand. This is used for all of the moulds we make.
Step 3
Fettling the casting. This operation removes the runner and riser system and
cleans any flash from the joint line. The casting is then shotblast, sent for

cracks. No cracks were found.
Step 4
The final casting awaiting collection by the customer.
