Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How do casting methods impact production cost?

Different casting methods offer varying cost efficiencies. Investment casting is more expensive due to the complex mold-making process, while sand casting is more cost-effective for large volumes of simpler parts. 

What are the key factors to consider when choosing a casting method?

The key factors include the complexity of the part design, the material requirements, the volume of production, and the necessary precision. These factors help determine whether investment casting or sand casting, among other methods, is the best option 

What are the common challenges in casting manufacturing?

Common challenges in casting manufacturing include achieving the desired precision, managing material defects, and optimizing production costs. Addressing these issues requires advanced technology and expertise in process selection, ensuring high-quality results with minimal waste. 

What are the typical lead times for casting projects?

Lead times for casting projects vary, but on average, they range from a few weeks to a few months. This depends on the casting method used, the complexity of the design, and the materials required. 

How does casting contribute to sustainability in manufacturing?

Casting processes can minimize material waste and allow for the use of recycled materials, contributing to more sustainable manufacturing. For instance, sand casting can recycle molds, and investment casting uses less material waste compared to traditional machining. 

How does Frigate ensure high-quality castings?

Frigate uses a range of advanced quality control measures, such as X-ray radiography and ultrasonic testing, to ensure that every casting meets strict performance standards. This precision and attention to detail ensure that all parts are reliable and durable.
