Sand Casting

Sand casting is a versatile method that allows for intricate shapes and larger components in iron and steel. It’s well-suited for low to medium production runs, offering excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish.

Gray Iron Casting

Gray iron casting offers versatility, superior fluidity and strength, ideal for a wide range of industrial applications. With its outstanding machinability, this material is often chosen for components requiring durability and high performance.

Fametsa – Our Process
From Drawing to Dock

How We Build Your Part.

Every casting goes through a controlled sequence — design, molding, melt, and heat treatment — before it ever leaves our floor. Here's what that looks like.

01
Cast Design

We use CAD and solidification modeling software to engineer the optimal casting geometry before a single mold is made. This eliminates shrinkage surprises and reduces rework cycles — saving you time and tooling cost.

CAD Design Solidification Modeling Prototype-ready
02
Molding

Our molding area handles small to medium volume runs with flexibility built in. Small molds run on our automated molding line; larger molds are floor-made. Our mixer adapts sand formulations per casting type.

03
Melting

Two induction furnaces — 1-ton and 3-ton — give us the versatility to run multiple alloys and casting sizes in parallel. Every melt is sampled and spectrometer-verified before pouring.

Catch It Here.
Not on Your Line.

Sand casting is not a zero-defect process — and any foundry that tells you otherwise isn't being straight with you. What we can promise is rigorous in-house testing at every stage, so issues are caught here, not when your line is already running.
