Copper casting parts are one kind of casting parts. According to the difference of metal materials, the casting parts can be divided into steel casting parts, copper casting parts, iron casting parts, aluminum casting parts, and cast magnesium parts and so on.
In the casting method, except copper sand casting, the copper casting parts and other non-ferrous alloys widely use in metal casting, centrifugal casting, low pressure casting and casting graphite casting and other methods.
In the copper alloy casting, copper casting parts take metal casting methods to accelerate the alloy solidification, to improve the casting quality and reduce casting defects, has an important role. Copper casting parts can be broken down grains, reduce porosity, improve the alloy's mechanical properties and air tightness (particularly important for copper), bronze in the high lead content of lead in copper casting parts, metal type (and the water-cooled metal mold) casting, to prevent the segregation of copper components.
In addition, the large copper casting parts (such as a large marine propeller) can be applied to low pressure casting method to improve the alloy density, and reduce the copper castings parts produced in the casting process of inclusion. Some copper casting parts (such as leaded brass) can be applied to the pressure casting method.
