Brass casting promotes many reasons for choosing brass for your high precision components. In the case of magnetically operating components such as the dual oscillating pump systems and the solenoid valve, the non-magnetic properties of any brass casting are found to be desirable when compared to the costs of other non-magnetic metals. The engineering properties of our brass casting ensure that all components have the strength to withstand impact and seismic forces maintaining the equipment’s operational integrity. This applies during both developmental testing and later in the field, often where human safety is reliant on this. Finally the speed and ease with which free-cutting brass machines, ensuring that our product is very competitively priced and is constructed from the very best brass casting materials available.

Selection of alloys’ in Our bronze casting process are typical alloys such as 90 percent copper, 6 percent Tin and 4 percent zinc, but this formulation greatly depends upon the type of application that the bronze casting may be subjected to, these percentages can be altered to ensure the correct quality of the bronze casting alloys for the work involved. As a particularly dense alloy it offers a high strength capacity in stress environments. Although bronze as a metal compound contains copper, it is the incorporated use of other alloys which determine the different qualities of a bronze casting.

Stainless steel casting is commonly used to create gears, hand tools and small parts which require the features found in steel. Common steel is actually iron that has been combined with carbon, manganese and some other elements. Stainless steel castings can be further modified by adding in chemicals and natural elements in a process called alloying. For Stainless steel castings the stainless steel is first made by adding chromium, nickel and molybdenum. Manganese can be added to make steel stronger and tungsten and cobalt can be added to keep steel from becoming soft under high heat conditions. All of these steel alloys are perfectly suitable for the stainless steel casting process.

copper investment castings continues to be one of the most in demand metal casting in today's high tech manufacturing environment because of its electrical and thermal conductivity, as well as its resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Therefore; when a project calls for a high degree of corrosion and oxidation resistance, and is a superior electrical and thermal conductivity then copper investment castings are the preferred solution for you. A major advantage of the copper investment castings process, versus other processes, is that parts which are made this way are smoother and generally require less machining. Copper is very malleable and can be rolled out to 1/500 of an inch in thickness after it has come from the copper investment castings process.

Stainless steel forging is the process by which metal is heated and is shaped by plastic deformation by suitably applying compressive force. Usually the compressive force is in the form of hammer blows using a power hammer or a press. Stainless steel forging helps to refines the grain structure and improves physical properties of the metal. With proper design, the grain flow can be oriented in the direction of principal stresses encountered in actual use. Grain flow is the direction of the pattern that the crystals take during plastic deformation. Physical properties like: strength, ductility and toughness are much better in a stainless steel forging than in a base metal.

Gray iron castings are suitable for a wide range of products including multiple components within the automotive, aerospace and transportation industries. Gray iron castings are favored for the low degree or absence of shrinkage; their resistance to cracking, high temperature properties, and high fluidity provide maximum freedom of design for the engineer. Gray iron castings typical uses include engine components, electronic housings, transportation, artistic and decorative products, and many other applications. Gray iron’s high carbon content is responsible for ease of melting and casting in the foundry and for ease of machining in subsequent manufacturing. The most versatile of all foundry metals is Gray iron castings.

Over the years the use of ductile Iron castings has grown rapidly, mainly through conversions from Gray and Malleable Iron castings and steel castings, forgings and fabrications but also through its use in new components designed with Ductile Iron. Ductile Iron castings have been successful because it has offered the design engineer a combination of versatility and properties not available in any of its rivals. When comparing ductile Iron castings; castability, machinability, damping properties, and economy of production it is almost equal to those for which Gray Iron is famous. Because it has offered the designer superior value - higher quality and performance at lower cost ductile Iron castings have been very successful.

Investment casting most commonly employs plaster molds and expendable patterns of wax or other fusible materials. Plaster slurry is invested around patterns for several castings, and the patterns are melted out as the plaster is baked. Investment casting produces precision parts; aluminum can have walls as thin as 0.40 to 0.75 mm. However, investment molding is often used to produce large quantities of intricately shaped parts requiring no further machining so internal porosity seldom is a problem. Because of strong interest by the aerospace industry in the aluminum investment casting process; it has resulted in limited use of improved technology to produce a premium quality aluminum investment casting.

Sand casting, which in a general sense involves the forming of a casting mold with sand, includes conventional sand casting and evaporative pattern (lost-foam) casting. In conventional sand casting, the mold is formed around a pattern by ramming sand, mixed with the proper bonding agent, onto the pattern. Then the pattern is removed, leaving a cavity in the shape of the casting to be made. If the casting is to have internal cavities or undercuts, sand cores are used to make them. Molten metal is poured into the mold, and after it has solidified the mold is broken to remove the casting. In making molds and cores, various agents can be used for bonding the sand casting.

Steel investment castings are typically used for a cost reduction alternative to stainless steel investment castings. Steel investment castings are heavily used in the energy, automotive, valve, and pump industries. As a raw material steel is much cheaper than stainless steel because of the high cost of the nickel and chrome added to steel in order to make stainless steel. As with stainless casting, steel casting provides cost reduction due to near net shape, greatly reducing mill and lathe time. Steel offers a virtually unlimited mechanical property range. Secondary heat treat operations can be performed after the casting process to make them up to 62 Rockwell C. The hardest metal utilized in the lost wax investment casting process is the use of steel investment castings.

The stainless steel investment castings process is well suited for a wide variety of applications from manufacturing small parts and tools to supplying the needs of the nuclear energy, defense and aerospace industries. There is practically no limit to the complexity of product designs that can be handled by stainless steel investment castings. Steel is widely accepted as an excellent choice for products and parts that need to withstand a great deal of wear and stress. stainless steel investment castings can be used to work with any of the following steel products: carbon steel, low and high alloy steel, low temperature steel, and heat resistant steel. In the aerospace industry where strength, resistance to in-service failure is required; stainless steel investment castings are very popular.

Compared to most copper fire pits on the market, Deecos’ copper fire pits are individually handcrafted; being hammered into shape by a coppersmith manually. This is a very important factor because those that are mass-produced are shaped from top to bottom, making the bottom of the bowl thinner than the rest of the bowl and because the fire is at its hottest at the bottom of the bowl, those that are mass-produced can’t withstand the same heat as our hand-hammered fire pits, causing them to last a much shorter period of time than our handcrafted thicker fire pits.
