REFERENCE NUMBER: L-1656
FOAM CASTING PROCESS / LFC MOLDING MACHINE FOR 10 TONS

LOST FOAM CASTING PROCESS FOUNDRY MACHINERY IS A KIND OF CASTING MACHINE ALSO CALLED LOST-FOAM PROCESS CASTING EQUIPMENT, CAN BE DESIGNED TO SIMPLE OR HUGE WHOLE LINE.
AT PRESENT, IT'S WIDELY USED IN THE CASTING FIELD AT HOME AND ABROAD.

THIS CASTING PROCESS IS ADVANTAGEOUS FOR VERY COMPLEX CASTINGS THAT WOULD REGULARLY REQUIRE CORES.
IT IS ALSO DIMENSIONALLY ACCURATE, MAINTAINS AN EXCELLENT SURFACE FINISH, REQUIRES NO DRAFT, AND HAS NO PARTING LINES SO NO FLASH IS FORMED.
AS COMPARED TO INVESTMENT CASTING, IT IS CHEAPER BECAUSE IT IS A SIMPLER PROCESS AND THE FOAM IS CHEAPER THAN THE WAX.
RISERS ARE NOT USUALLY REQUIRED DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE PROCESS; BECAUSE THE MOLTEN METAL VAPORIZES THE FOAM THE FIRST METAL INTO THE MOLD COOLS MORE QUICKLY THAN THE REST, WHICH RESULTS IN NATURAL DIRECTIONAL SOLIDIFICATION.
FOAM IS EASY TO MANIPULATE, CARVE AND GLUE, DUE TO ITS UNIQUE PROPERTIES.
THE FLEXIBILITY OF LFC OFTEN ALLOWS FOR CONSOLIDATING THE PARTS INTO ONE INTEGRAL COMPONENT; OTHER FORMING PROCESSES WOULD REQUIRE THE PRODUCTION OF ONE OR MORE PARTS TO BE ASSEMBLED.
