How Does Our Process Work?

At Badger Alloys, our sand casting foundry uses an ultra-efficient airset, no bake molding process. During this process, chemical binders are used to help bond the molding sand. Not only does this popular method result in higher quality castings but many other value-added benefits such as:

  • Closer dimensional tolerances
  • Design flexibility to accommodate intricate casting shapes
  • Quick production time
  • Capability to produce large and complex castings
  • Smooth and seamless finish

Badger Alloys offers a variety of specialty sands that are available for even more improved surface finish for any requirements you might have. Throughout our process, sands are also cleaned and recycled through our sand reclamation unit. This unit helps us deliver high efficiency and environmentally friendly sand casting processes.
