Investment Casting for Agricultural Applications from jccasting's blog

Investment casting can be used to customize a wide variety of metal components for industries such as medical, construction, mining, forestry, automotive, and more. Like other industries, agricultural machinery is one of the main fields of application of precision castings. Investment castings for agricultural applications account for approximately 20% of all investment castings in our investment casting company. This shows the important position of investment castings in the manufacture of agricultural equipment.

We often refer to "agricultural castings" as agricultural wear parts or farming implements. In order to maximize the accuracy of agricultural investment castings, such products are designed and produced in precision investment castings. Importing precision castings from Chinese companies has many advantages such as low cost, convenient delivery, and good quality. All of these factors attract our customers to purchase agricultural parts from our investment foundry. CFS Foundry can provide investment castings in materials with good wear resistance. What's more, we can make farming tools with tungsten brazing or ceramic tiles. We can produce agricultural investment castings for:

tractor

Harvester

planting equipment

sowing equipment

farming equipment

etc.

With the exception of some standard castings, such as teeth and adapters, most investment castings are custom metal parts. So, no matter what kind of agricultural component you are looking for, investment casting is always the ideal method of manufacture. We can make agricultural castings in any shape you like.

Almost all agricultural components must be wear resistant. For investment casting, we can choose metal alloys with good wear and corrosion resistance. The most widely used casting alloy grades are ASTM 4140, ASTM 8630, AISI 1045, etc. In addition, heat treatment also helps to increase the hardness, which in turn increases the wear resistance of the product.

Some agricultural components are brazed with tungsten. For such products, the surfaces to which the tungsten carbide will be brazed must be machined. We can only leave a small processing allowance, which not only saves processing costs but also saves time.
