EPS white mold, cavity and castings
Ceramic mold casting is a casting method of pouring molten metal into ceramic molds to obtain castings. It is a kind of precision casting developed on the basis of sand casting and investment casting.
First coat the slurry on the shape of the EPS white mold. Then, a special ceramic inorganic cavity thin-walled shell is made. And then the molten metal is poured into the molded shell. When the molten metal cools and solidifies, the casting forms.

Compared with Expandable Pattern Casting
There are essential differences in application modes, technological measures and casting quality between ceramic mold casting and expandable pattern casting.
Expandable pattern casting: Pouring molten metal into white foam molds coated with paint.
Ceramic mold casting: Pour molten metal into the clean ceramic inorganic cavity shell.
Advantages of Ceramic Mold Casting
Compared with Lost Wax Precision Casting (Silica Sol Casting)
Under the conditions of producing castings of the same quality, ceramic pattern casting has a lower casting cost. Featuring by flexible casting technological measures (cold iron, casting head position), it can produce large and medium casting parts and castings with complex structures.
Advantages of Ceramic Mold Casting
Compared with Sand Casting
Under the premise of producing castings at the same cost, ceramic pattern casting makes the quality of casting greatly improved from inside to outside.
Advantages of Ceramic Mold Casting
Real Green Casting
Expandable pattern casting is recognized as "green casting in 21st century". However, the ceramic mold casting is more environmental-friendly in the following aspects.
Fuel gas emission
In addition to sands used in these two processes are recycled without emission
