CNC Machining Vs Casting

The casting process is mainly divided into three types, among which sand casting has low cost and is suitable for the production of parts with large size and low precision requirements. Investment casting requires the production of molds for the production of wax patterns, and the process is relatively complex, which is suitable for the […]
