Die Casting
Die casting forces molten metal into a mold cavity using high pressure. It's ideal for high-volume production of complex shapes with tight tolerances and smooth surface finishes. Common metals include aluminium, zinc, and magnesium.

Casting Processes for Custom Metal Parts
Investment Casting
Investment casting starts with a wax model that's coated in ceramic. Once the shell hardens, the wax is melted out and replaced with molten metal. It's ideal for parts with complex shapes and where precision matters.
Sand Casting
Sand casting packs sand around a pattern to form a mold, which is broken after each pour. It's one of the most flexible casting methods. Often used for larger parts, shorter runs, and many metals, from iron to bronze.
Vacuum Casting
Vacuum casting pulls metal into the mold using negative pressure instead of just gravity. It helps reduce porosity and gives better material density. Useful when strength and part integrity are critical.
What Are Metal Casting Services?
Metal casting is the process of pouring molten metal into a mold and then allowing it to solidify into a finished part. IIt’s a proven, time-tested method used across industries to create strong, complex components. The process you choose depends on several factors. For example, geometry, material, tolerance, and production volume.
Die casting uses high pressure to inject molten metal into a steel mold. Investment casting creates a ceramic mold around a wax model, which is melted out before pouring. Sand casting forms the cavity using packed sand. Vacuum casting draws molten metal into the mold using negative pressure, rather than gravity or force.
Each process serves a different purpose. Choosing the right casting services in China comes down to what your part must perform in your production volume.
