Casting process can be subdivided into Sand Casting, Investment Casting, Die Casting, Lost Foam Casting and Permanent Casting, which are widely used in the production of valves, accounting for more than 80% of the customized valves we receive, the main application of casting products is for low and medium pressure pipelines.The material is cast iron, cast steel and cast stainless steel.
Qingdao Fluido not only supplies finished valves, but also provides various cast valve bodies, valve covers, and valve plates according to customer drawings or requirements. The weight ranges from 0.5kgs to 200kgs, and materials include gray iron, ductile iron, cast steel, and stainless steel. We welcome your inquiry.
Welding is a process that joins two or more pieces of metal together by melting and fusing them. In valves and pipe fittings, the Welding process is often co-existing with the Stamping process.
Forging is a manufacturing process where metal is shaped and formed using compressive forces. It involves heating the metal and then applying pressure to shape it into the desired form. High pressure valves are required to use the forging process.
Machining is a manufacturing process that involves the use of various tools and machines to shape and finish a material into a desired shape or size. This process includes the most common thread machining in valves, valve plate sealing surface machining, and flange sealing surface machining.
Stamping is a manufacturing process in which a flat sheet of metal is formed into a desired shape using a press machine and a die. It is commonly used in industries for producing various components and parts with high precision and efficiency. Valve holders as well as other accessories are stamped processes.
Production Process Introduction
Sand Casting is divided into three types: Green sand casting, Resin sand casting and Precoated sand casting. Green Sand Casting is the method with the lowest cost, but its surface smoothness is not good. Resin Sand Casting can give good surface and accuracy size, so it is widely used in the casting industry. Precoated Sand Casting can give surface roughness of RA = 6.3 ~ 12.5 μm and size accuracy of CT7 ~ CT9 level, which is mainly used to make cast steel parts. FLUIDO mainly do the casting on Grey Iron, Ductile Iron, Stainless Steel, Carbon steel, aluminum and Brass. Unit weight ranges from 0.3kg to 80kg.
Investment Casting is considered as a relatively expensive process in a long period of time. However, compared with other replacement process which requires many welding or machining processes, the investment-casting process can usually significantly reduce the production cost of the overall parts. Fluido will use two investment-casting methods to meet customer's quality requirements: Water Glass and Silicon Glue. The surface quality of the Water Glass is not as good as the surface made by Silicon Glue, however its cost is lower. Silicon Glue gives out good surface however its cost is high. Anyway Fluido will choose the most economical method based on customers' tolerance requirements and product use. Unit Weight Ranges from 20G to 15kgs.
Die Casting is a metal casting process, which is characterized by pressing the melting metal into the mold cavity under high pressure. Compared with the sand casting and refined casting process, the advantage of die casting is that it can give out shape-complicated parts with thin wall thickness, the surface can be up to CT6-8, the quality of the casting is high, the strength and hardness are higher than the sand casting, the productivity is high, the cost is low, and it is easy to achieve automated production. The disadvantage is that the mold fee is high and it is not suitable for production of small batches. During the die -casting process, as the metal liquid is filled with a high speed, the casting is prone to small pores, so it is not suitable for thick wall thickness parts. Die casting is generally used to make aluminum and zinc alloy parts.
Lost Foam Casting (LFC) is similar to the investment casting, also is an evaporation model casting process, but its model is plastic foam instead of wax. This technology uses the low boiling point of the plastic foam to simplify the investment casting process without needing to melt the wax from the mold. Fluido only uses the Lost Foam Casting process to produce ductile iron pipe fittings and large -size valve body parts.
Permanent Casting is a casting method that pour liquid metal into metal casting to obtain casting parts. The model is made of heat -resistant alloy steel metal, which can be used repeatedly. The parts produced by Permanent Casting are not only good in size's accuracy and surface's smoothness, but also has higher strength than Sand Casting, just the disadvantage is that the mold fee is high. Fluido only uses the Permanent Casting process to produce aluminum alloy casting parts and zinc alloy casting parts.
