The Federal Group’s Sand Casting Capabilities

Our foundry capabilities have a wide range from 1 lb to 30,000 lbs per piece. Different materials and methods can be used to achieve the ideal result for your casting products:
Green Sand Molding
Castings are made using sand molds formed containing water and organic bonding compounds (typically clay).
Resin Sand Molding / Shell Molding
Castings are made with resin sand, which is a mixture of quartz sand and resin. Also known as a hard mold, the resin sand becomes very hard and solid after mixing and burning.
No-Bake / Air Set Molding
This sand casting process involves the use of chemical binders to bond the molding sand at room temperature. Heating is not necessary for this process.
Complete Metallurgical Analysis
- Our state of the art lab is fully capable of preparing metals for analysis.
- Microscopic and Macroscopic Analyses: Sectioning, mounting, polishing, and micro etching are done to prepare the metal for analysis.
- X-Ray Diffraction Analysis: We are also capable of preserving the specimen: This is a nondestructive technique for characterizing crystalline material or minerals.
- Fully Equipped Sand Testing Lab: Capable of testing all of the characteristics of prepared sand for casting, we have maximum control over processes. This identifies casting defects and process inefficiencies, resulting in superior products at a lower cost of operation.
Our Sand Casting Materials
Various metal material can be used for sand casting depending on the application and desired properties of the final product. We use the following materials in our sand castings:
- Alloy Steel
- Aluminum
- Brass, Bronze & Copper: We manufacture custom non-ferrous sand castings in a range of copper-based alloys, including brass. Learn more about our Brass Sand Casting capabilities.
- Cast Iron
- Grey, Ductile & White Iron
- Magnesium
- Stainless Steel/ Duplex 2205, 2507 & Zeron
