About Non-ferrous Casting
Metal casting is a manufacturing process in which metal (molten or liquid) is poured into a mold made of sand or ceramic plaster. The mold contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, to form geometrically complex parts. The most common non-ferrous metals used for casting are aluminum, magnesium, zinc, and copper-based alloys. Metal casting finds application in vehicles; planes; trains; mining, construction, and electrical equipment; oil wells; pipes; toys; space shuttles; wind turbines; and nuclear plants.
The techniques for non-ferrous casting include die casting, centrifugal casting, high pressure casting, vacuum casting, and investment casting. Non-ferrous casting involves processes such as fluxing, metal refining, degassing, grain refining and pumping, and filtration.
Technavios analysts forecast the global non-ferrous casting market to grow at a CAGR of 5.82% during the period 2016-2020.
