AISI 347 Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a high alloy steel that can resist corrosion in air or chemically corrosive media. Stainless steel does not need to undergo surface treatment such as color plating, but it can also have the inherent surface properties of stainless steel. From a metallo...Read more -
Penetrant Testing to Detect Internal Defects in Castings
Penetration testing (PT) is also a kind of non-destructive testing. Its basic principle is to use the good permeability and capillary action of colored penetrants or fluorescent penetrants to narrow gaps. After penetration, removal, and imaging treatment, the surface def...Read more -
Detect Internal Defects in Castings by Ultrasonic
Ultrasonic testing can find defects such as shrinkage cavities, shrinkage porosity, porosity, inclusions, and cracks in castings with simple shapes and flat surfaces, and can determine the size and location of defects. Ultrasonic testing refers to a method of injecting u...Read more -
Three Kinds of Sand Casting Process
According the difference of the sand used for making the casting molds, sand casting process could be divided into many different kinds, such as green sand casting, coated sand casting (shell casting), self-hardening sand casting and dry sand casting (lost foam casting a...Read more -
Shell Mold Casting Process
Shell-mold casting process is also known as shell molding process. It is an expendable mold casting process that uses a resin covered sand to form the mold. In shell-mold casting process the mold is made like a shell. The thin or hollow mold is used so that weight of mol...Read more -
