Complex internal passages - High difficulty aluminum casting case

A body with built-in waterways and strict machining tolerances. Our company's top-level high-difficulty castings are produced consistently from core manufacturing to machining with 15 units of 5-axis machining centers, with geometric tolerances of ±0.03mm.

I want to create water channels inside the body. However, the shape of the core is complex, and there are concerns about the flow of molten metal. Additionally, the processing tolerances are strict, making it inherently a difficult product, and even when searching separately for casting and machining, it is hard to find someone willing to take on the job. Are you facing issues with such components? Castings that incorporate water channels are challenging because the production of cores that shape narrow, curved passages is difficult, and measures to ensure the flow of molten metal reaches even the thin parts during casting are essential. Furthermore, to achieve strict tolerances, precision management that considers machining standards from the casting stage is necessary. When casting and machining are separated, this management can be interrupted between processes. Karmo Casting is a foundry manufacturer that handles everything in-house, from the design and production of wooden patterns and cores to casting, machining, and inspection. We confirm the flow of molten metal and solidification in advance through casting simulations, finalize multiple surfaces with a 5-axis machining center, and verify dimensions with a three-dimensional measuring machine before shipping. This product, which has become one of the most challenging for us, was managed for precision consistently from casting to machining. We are offering a free guidebook on casting defect countermeasures and a collection of VA/VE case studies. Please download them from the link below.
