Metline Casting logoMETLINE CASTING

Manufacturing Facilities

Eight stages. One controlled process.

Every casting moves through the same disciplined sequence — core, cast, treat, finish — before it reaches inspection.

Sand Casting Process

How a casting comes together.

01

Core Making

High quality core making for accurate, repeatable casting geometry.

02

Melting & Pouring

Aluminium melted under controlled conditions and poured with precision.

03

Sand Casting

High quality sand casting engineered for strong, reliable components.

04

Heat Treatment

Thermal treatment improves strength, durability and performance.

05

Vacuum Impregnation

Porosity elimination for leak-proof, pressure-tight castings.

06

Sandblasting

Clean, uniform surface preparation ahead of finishing.

07

Grinding & Finishing

Precision grinding and fettling that ensure accurate dimensions and a flawless finish.

08

Machining

Precision machining tailored to meet complex specifications and stringent industry standards.

Molding Making

Four molding-making methods, matched to the part.

The right core process depends on the casting's complexity, wall section and production volume.

CO₂ Core

  • · CO₂ gas curing process
  • · High strength and dimensional accuracy
  • · Ideal for large production runs

No Bake Core

  • · No bake (air-setting) process
  • · Good strength and surface quality
  • · Cost effective across applications

Grinding & Finishing

From raw casting to dispatch-ready part.

1

Grinding

  • Remove extra material
  • Smooth surface

2

Fettling

  • Remove flash & burrs
  • Fine edge cleaning
  • Better surface finish
3

Sand Blasting

  • Clean, uniform surface
  • Remove sand & residues
  • Improve appearance
4

Belt Grinding

  • Smooth finishing
  • Remove sharp edges
  • Final touch
5

Inspection & Finished Parts

  • Dimensional & surface check
  • Quality assurance
  • Ready for assembly
6

Packing & Dispatch

  • Secure packing
  • Safe dispatch
  • On-time delivery
