In the vast landscape of industrial manufacturing, many critical components – from robust machine tool beds and complex transmission housings to durable engine blocks – begin their life through "casting." This ancient yet vital process gives metal its initial form and inherent strength. Every cast iron surface plate we produce at Shanghai Chenghua Machinery embodies this craftsmanship; it is not merely a product, but a testament to our engineering commitment to providing a "solid foundation."
Scientific Casting Methods: Choosing the Optimal Path for Performance
Various methods are used for casting, including sand casting, permanent mold casting, and die casting. Among these, sand casting is the most widely used due to its versatility and cost-effectiveness. We have deep expertise in this area and select the approach based on order requirements:

The Soul of the Material: Why Gray Cast Iron?
Casting is not just about shaping; it's a profound understanding of the material's soul. The castability of a metal – including its fluidity, shrinkage, and segregation tendency – directly determines the final quality of the casting.
determines the ability of the molten metal to fill the mold, which is essential for achieving complex, thin-walled castings.
affects the dimensional accuracy and internal soundness of the casting. Controlling shrinkage is key to minimizing distortion and cracks.

Among many cast metals, gray cast iron is renowned as an "ideal material" for casting due to its excellent fluidity, very low shrinkage, and minimal segregation tendency. This is the core reason we select it for manufacturing cast iron surface plates, ground rails, and large foundational components. Its internal graphite structure also provides natural vibration damping and wear resistance, which are irreplaceable advantages for measurement and assembly platforms requiring extreme stability.
msgid "Our Promise: Building on a Foundation of Casting Excellence"
msgstr "我们的承诺:建立在铸造卓越的基础上"
At Shanghai Chenghua Machinery, we view every product as a transformation from "rough casting" to "precision finished good." We control quality from the very source – the casting process. We select high-strength cast iron (such as HT200-300) and strictly implement artificial aging treatments to thoroughly relieve internal stresses, ensuring exceptional long-term stability and precision retention in our products.
We not only provide standard products but also offer comprehensive, one-stop custom solutions based on your specific drawings and technical requirements, covering everything from casting to precision machining.
Choosing us means selecting a solid and reliable manufacturing foundation.
