Gating System Design: The Highway System of Your Casting
In sand casting, the gating system is the network of channels that guides molten metal from the ladle into the mold cavity. Like a well-designed highway, it must deliver the right volume of metal at the right speed, without turbulence, erosion, or contamination. At Juize Machinery, we engineer gating systems that fill smoothly, trap impurities, and produce […]
The Hidden Cavities: How Cores Create Complex Castings
Many castings require internal passages, hollow sections, or undercuts—features that cannot be formed by the mold alone. The solution is cores: sand shapes placed inside the mold before pouring, which become the void spaces in the final component. At Juize Machinery, we design and produce cores that enable complex geometries without compromising casting integrity. As a Gold […]
Can CNC Plasma Cut Aluminum?
Yes, CNC plasma cutters have the ability to cut and pierce through aluminum. In fact, it’s just one of the items that it can easily cut and work on. The versatility that plasma cutters offer is surreal–it can cut through many different types of metal, steel, as well as different alloys that are electrically […]
Benefits of CNC Plasma Cutting
Enhanced Cutting in Harsh Environments The first and probably the best benefit of CNC plasma cutting is the better and higher quality of cuts. Unlike laser cutters, which require clean and controlled environments, plasma cutting performs well in rugged industrial settings. CNC plasma cutters function efficiently and effectively in dusty, humid, or high-temperature conditions; […]
Draft Angle: The Subtle Taper That Makes Casting Possible
In casting design, one feature is often overlooked—yet without it, production is impossible. Draft angle is the slight taper applied to vertical surfaces, allowing patterns to be removed from molds without damaging the sand. At Juize Machinery, we understand that proper draft design balances manufacturability against final geometry. As a Gold Verified Supplier on Alibaba, our castings reflect […]
The Critical Role of Risers in Casting Soundness
In sand casting, molten metal shrinks as it solidifies. Without compensation, this contraction creates voids—shrinkage porosity that weakens the component and compromises pressure tightness. The solution? Risers (also called feeders). These reservoirs of molten metal supply the casting as it contracts, ensuring solidification without voids. At Juize Machinery, we design riser systems that deliver sound, dense castings […]
What is CNC Plasma Cutting?
In a nutshell, CNC plasma cutting is a subtractive process using plasma as the cutting material. The term “CNC” refers to the machine being used. What this means is that the machine uses a plasma torch and moves in a direction controlled by the computer, allowing workers to focus just on setting it up. […]
Controlled Cooling: The Use of Chills in Sand Casting
In sand casting, the rate at which metal cools determines its internal soundness. Uneven cooling creates shrinkage porosity, hot spots, and weak zones. To control this, foundries use chills—metal inserts placed in the mold to accelerate cooling in specific areas. At Juize Machinery, we strategically apply chills to produce castings that are dense, sound, and free […]
Regular Process of Small Batch CNC Machining
The usual process of small batch CNC machining involves a few people and more materials. To help you identify it, here is the typical way they’re done: The material is fed and mounted onto the CNC machine. After that, an operator will program the machine (geometrically and directionally). Everything else, such as temperature, speed, […]
Introduction to CNC Machining Equipment
There are multiple types of CNC machines that are used for small batch manufacturing and production. The most common CNC machining tools you want to be aware of are: CNC Lathes CNC or computer numerically-controlled lathes are subtractive machines or equipment where the material or workpiece is mounted and is rotated by the spindle. A […]
