About Custom Brass Casting
Product Characteristics
Customizability
Brass material has low viscosity and good fluidity after melting, and can be used to fill a variety of complex custom shapes.
Corrosion Resistance
The brass material used in custom brass casting creates a dense oxide film on the surface, and other metal elements are added during melting to enhance the corrosion resistance of the brass material.
Other Characteristics
Custom brass casting parts have excellent mechanical properties, such as good hardness and strength, and good toughness and wear resistance, and perform well in some heavy-duty applications.
Material Selection
There are many materials that can be selected for custom brass casting, and the following categories can be mainly selected according to the content of copper and other metal elements in the composition.

Customized Processes
The process of Custom Brass Casting is not complicated, but the main thing is to determine the requirements and materials used so that the engineer can choose the best production option. Below is the entire customization process for Custom Brass Casting.
Demand Confirmation
Our engineers will communicate with you in detail to determine your needs, including quantity, material, estimated delivery time, your product drawings, casting process options, and the price after evaluation by our engineer team.
Pattern Making
Based on the data in the drawing design and the casting process determined after the final evaluation, the most appropriate method for manufacturing the pattern is selected. For example, lost wax casting produces wax molds coated with refractory materials, while sand casting makes metal molds that are consistent with the shape of the part and have some margin reserved.
Molding
The molding process of different casting processes is different from the molding process made by the mold. Lost wax casting mainly melts the wax out of a wax mold coated with refractory coating at high temperatures, so that it forms a cavity shell that is consistent with the shape of the part. Sand casting, on the other hand, uses the upper and lower parts of the sand box to prepare a cavity that is consistent with the shape of the pattern.
Melting and Casting
After the pattern and mold are ready, it is time to melt the brass material and cast it, and the molten metal liquid is slowly injected into the cavity through the pouring system to wait for cooling and solidification.
Demolding and Post-Processing
After the casting solidifies, the casting is taken out by destroying the shell, and at this time, only the process of making the casting blank is completed, and the casting precision processing and other post-processing operations need to be carried out according to the size requirements of the drawings.
Quality Inspection and Delivery
After completing all the production work, our quality inspection team will conduct quality inspection on the products produced, and the qualified products will be delivered to customers by sea, land and air according to the prescribed packaging.
