OEM processing customization

Train parts can be cast from a variety of materials. These products can be several millimeters thick, five meters wide, or 1.25 meters wide. They are made in a number of sizes, depending on the exact dimensions required. The process also involves hot rolling to provide support for the core, which can range from a few millimeters to several centimeters in diameter.  

There are many types of materials used for casting train parts. Generally, the casting process is water glass lost-wax. The material range includes carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, gray iron, and ductile iron. It is a process that can produce high-quality components. Various processes are available for the casting process, including dichromate, electrophoresis, and electropolish. There are a number of advantages to investing in this method, which is why it is the preferred choice of many railroads.

Aluminum alloys are a popular choice for train manufacturers. These alloys feature a high strength-to-weight ratio, and are lightweight compared to iron and steel. This is a great benefit when a part needs to be strong and light, but does not have a large amount of weight. This is where investment casting comes into play. By investing in aluminum, you can ensure high-quality parts for a long time.
