Moulding

Wet sand molding is a method used in the casting industry and is particularly preferred for the production of parts with complex geometries. This system allows sand to be mixed with a binding agent during the molding process and this mixture is placed in the mold to obtain the desired shape. Wet sand molding is a method that offers high precision, repeatability and efficiency. In the wet sand molding system, sand and water are mixed and poured into the mold and then the shape in the mold is formed. During this process, the sand is hardened with a binder and takes the desired shape in the mold. Organic or inorganic compounds are usually used as binders. The wet sand molding system provides a high degree of flexibility in the production of castings and facilitates the production of parts with complex geometries. In this system, the sand mixture in the mold is allowed to harden for a while and then the mold is opened. When the mold is opened, the pattern part used to create the shape is removed and the casting part is obtained. The wet sand molding system ensures high precision and increases the repeatability of the molding process. It also reduces costs thanks to the ability to reuse the mold material. The wet sand molding system is widely used in the production of parts used in many industrial sectors. It is the preferred method for the production of parts with complex geometries in sectors such as automotive, aerospace, energy, marine and defense. This system ensures that castings have excellent surface quality and geometric accuracy. It also offers flexibility in material selection and allows the use of different metals or alloys. The wet sand molding system is continuously being developed and supported by innovative approaches. Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems are important tools used to optimize the molding process. Computer simulations and analyses help to predict the production process of the parts in advance and enable defects to be detected in advance. As a result, wet sand molding is a reliable and efficient method for the production of parts with complex geometries. With the increasing demands in industrial sectors, the wet sand molding system is constantly evolving and supported by innovative approaches. This system will continue to be the cornerstone of manufacturing in the foundry sector, improving productivity and quality.
