Here, Castech India tries to show how different types Alloy Steel likes Low and High Alloy steels are used in Casting process via Infographic below:









Rather Than Infographic, Castech India here described more information related to Alloy Steels used in Casting Process. Let us discuss in brief below.





There are different metals used in casting process to make various types of products. Castech India tries to categories them in two main group as per their resources : Ferrous metal and Non-ferrous metal.





Ferrous Metal :

The bulk molten metal can be used for continuous castings, production of pig iron and supply to a foundry process. Ferrous metal is also divided into two sub categories : Iron metal and Steel metal. Steel metal is further divided into carbon steel, alloy steel and stainless steel metals. The alloy steel contains upto 30% each chromium or nickel to provide additional hardness and heat treatment ability.





Non-Ferrous Metal :

The production of this non-ferrous metal raw ores & metal scrap with refining and purification by chemical, thermal and other methods. Non-ferrous metal is further categories in aluminum, copper, zinc, magnesium, titanium, etc.





From our 30 years experience in this industry, here we show you some brief details about how alloy steel is used in castings process . To make various types of products, this metal must pass through these processes :

Welding

Milling

Cutting(Laser)

Lathe work and

Molding

Welding :

It is the fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials. It applies on various types of metals or plastics. This will going to happen using fusion and it is different from lower temperature metal joining techniques, which do not melt the base metal.

Milling :

Using rotary cutters to remove unwanted material from the piece, the machining process – Miling is used. It covers a wide variety of operations on different machines from individual small parts to large and heavy duty operations.

Laser cutting :

In this technology the laser is used to cut materials. Industrial laser cutters are used to cut flat-sheet material as well as structural materials.

Lathe work :

A lathe is a tool that rotates the piece on its angle to perform various operations such as knurling, cutting, drilling, sanding, facing, turning, etc. Lathe is used in metal working, metal spinning, parts reclamation & thermal spraying

Molding :

A mold is the hollowed-out block which is filled with a liquid material like plastic, metal or ceramic. That liquid sets inside the mold and adopts the shape of the mold. A mold is the counterpart to a cast.
