CMR Group also supplies sand castings up to 200 kg in weight in alloyed steel or stainless steel. Thanks to precision casting smelting technology, there are no limitations as to minimum lot quantities.
Growing demands from the market to reduce the cost of mechanical machining of sand-cast steel parts encouraged CMR Group to develop and expand their use of precision casting (or “lost-wax” casting) technology.
We produce stainless steel precision castings
The production facilities for these products are situated in the Far East for various reasons, among which:
the need to reduce production costs;
the need for qualified personnel for both the smelting process and for making the special moulds used for producing the “waxes” required by the precision casting process.
Know-how, tried-and-tested production processes, modern machinery and the best leading-edge technologies plus qualified, expert personnel enable CMR Group to speed up and optimize the initial stages of the projects.
Precision casting technology can be used to produce parts of very different sizes and weights, from just a few grams to as much as 30 kg.
Low cost precision casting moulds means that limited production lots can also be supplied, thus with low impact in terms of mould depreciation.
Precision casting technology produces parts very similar to finished products, even when their shapes are extremely complicated.
This technique also does away with problems concerning casting drafts and undercuts, which usually occur when sand casting techniques are used.
