Bronze casting alloys are typically identified as between the C80000 and C90000 series. They are the most readily available or “off the shelf” group in the bronze alloys. Bronze casting alloys can be manufactured with different materials, including aluminum and more, in (3) main ways: continuous, centrifugal, and sand castings.
Bronze Sand Casting
Sand casting is probably the oldest bronze casting method in practice. The mold is prepared using sand or silica, and the molten liquid metal is poured into it. The mold is made of two parts: the cope and the drag. A wooden pattern is placed between these two parts, called the mold cavity. The liquid metal enters here and casts itself. The shape of the mold cavity is similar to the final object after the refining. Atlas offers high-quality bronze sand castings at competitive prices and great lead times. Your alloy, specification, or application might indicate the part needs to be made as a sand casting. Speak to one of our sales representatives to determine if your application should be a bronze sand casting.
Bronze Centrifugal Casting
The centrifugal bronze casting process uses a mold fixed to a motor on an axis to rotate it at high speeds. The speed of rotation depends on the metal to be cast and the shape required. This method is mainly used for the production of cylindrical components like pipes. As the motor rotates, the metal is pushed towards the outer walls of the cast and solidifies. The centrifugal process is unsuitable for making linear-shaped and dense objects. Atlas offers high-quality bronze centrifugal castings at competitive prices and great lead times. Your alloy, specification, or application might indicate that the part needs to be made as a centrifugal casting. Speak to one of our sales representatives to determine if your application should be a bronze centrifugal casting.
Bronze Continuous Casting
As the name implies, continuous bronze casting converts molten metal into a continuous moving ingot with a rectangular or round cross-section, saving time, energy, and labor. Generally, a water-cooled mold is employed, receiving molten metal at one end and delivering a continuous solidified product at the other. The molds can be vibrating or moving, slow or fast. Atlas offers high-quality bronze continuous cast products at competitive prices and great lead times. Your alloy, specification, or application might indicate the part needs to be made as a continuous casting. Speak to one of our sales representatives to determine if your application should be a bronze continuous casting product.
