Application of Sand Casting in Water Pump Casting

Sand casting is widely used, today we will talk about the application of sand casting in water pump industry.

Water pump casting refers to various water pump accessories manufactured by die casting, sand casting, precision casting and other processes. Pump casting is one of the core parts of the pump, and the efficacy is directly related to the work efficiency and service life of the pump. The following details the types, processes, performance characteristics and other aspects of the water pump castings.

1.Types:

According to the environment and application requirements, water pump castings can be divided into different types. There are mainly the following:

(1) Air-cooled water pump castings: For light engines, air-cooled water pump castings are often used. The pump casting is mainly composed of pump body, pump cover, bearing and impeller.

(2) Liquid cooling water pump castings: liquid cooling water pump castings are often used in automotive engines, Marine engines, construction machinery and other large equipment. Pump casting structure is complex, there are high pressure, low pressure, pressurization and other different types.

(3) Centrifugal pump castings: Centrifugal pump castings are a common type of pump accessories, mainly composed of pump body, pump cover, impeller, bearings and other components. Pump castings are simple in structure and easy to use, and are widely used in various fields.

(4) Self-priming pump castings: Self-priming pump castings are inlet valves and outlet pipes as one of the castings, with self-priming function, can absorb liquid and transport. Pump casting structure is complex, often used in irrigation, industrial water and other occasions.

2. Processes:

The production process of water pump castings mainly includes die casting, sand casting and precision casting. In water pump castings, die casting process is a kind of high efficiency, energy saving and easy to operate casting method, which has been widely used in the manufacture of water pump castings.

Sand casting is a kind of traditional casting method, which has the characteristics of simple process and wide application range. Pump castings have low production cost and are welcomed by the majority of users.

Precision casting is a kind of high precision, high purity casting method, often used to manufacture high-end pump castings, high precision, fine particles, and good structural consistency.

3. Characteristics:

Water pump castings have the characteristics of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance and so on. In pump castings, corrosion resistance is the most prominent feature of pump castings, which can adapt to the working environment of various corrosive media. At the same time, the pump castings have good anti-wear properties and can maintain stability in high-speed operating environments. In addition, the pump castings also have good high temperature resistance and longer service life.
   

Therefore, when purchasing water pump castings, attention should be paid to quality issues and products with good performance should be selected. At the same time, in the production process, the process also needs to be properly controlled to ensure the quality and performance of the product.
