KBR Manufacturing Private Limited

At KBR, sand casting constitutes a vital part of metal casting expertise. We support the manufacturing sector with sand casting services to enable manufacturers to produce engine parts with incredible pressure tightness, accurate machinability, robust structure, and low weight.

Our sand casting undergoes an extensive process. The steps include,

• Creating a mold pattern and a gate system
• Placing the mold pattern in the sand and packing it around the mold
• Removing the pattern to form a cavity
• Heating the metal to a high temperature
• Pouring the molten metal into the cavity
• Separating the sand mold along a parting line
• Destroying the mold cavities

Also known as LFC, lost foam casting helps create complex metal parts wherein molten metal evaporates a foam mold held still with sand. Our process begins with a polystyrene foam to carve, machine (from a foam block) or create a mold material. Further, it involves heating beads of polystyrene in an aluminum die to expand and fill it. Later, we cover the polystyrene foam mold with a ceramic refractory coating, in which the foam mold is placed and that also serves as an obstacle disallowing foam and sand from mixing.

We deliver the following advantages with our LFC process.

• Reduced lead time
• Lowered production cost
• Creation of highly complex shapes with versatile properties

At KBR, we offer investment casting services featuring an organized process. It involves creating the pattern, building the tree, making the shell, removing the wax, casting the metal, removing the shell, finishing, and inspecting the parts. Our investment casting services aim to deliver incredible dimension accuracy, metal compatibility, smooth surface finishes, and flash-free parting lines. Thus, as a manufacturer of components, our investment casting process contributes to your ability to produce sophisticated parts.

Our manufacturing setup hosts state-of-the-art equipment, including advanced robotic arms to achieve remarkable accuracy and finishing. We cast metals to support manufacturing cylinder heads, pistons, crankshafts, calipers and discs, braking systems, gearbox components, and more. Please take a look at our investment casting infrastructure and capabilities.
