Precision Casting VS Sand Casting, Which Is Better For Forklift Bearing Caps?

Precision Casting VS Sand Casting, Which Is Better For Forklift Bearing Caps?

27-03-2025

In the world of industrial manufacturing, every component of a forklift is crucial, and one of the small but critical components, casting bearing cap, is the core component that affects the stability of the entire vehicle. Since it is so important, the question is: Is precision casting or sand casting more suitable for producing casting bearing cap? Today, let's talk about this interesting topic and introduce our production capabilities to everyone. After all, no matter which casting method, we can easily handle it!


Let's take a look at the charm of precision casting. Precision casting, as the name suggests, is a casting method that pursues extreme precision. This process can achieve ultra-high dimensional accuracy and surface finish, so that casting bearing cap can perfectly match the bearing seat, reduce friction and extend service life. At the same time, precision casting can also effectively reduce subsequent processing costs, allowing crankshaft bearing cap to directly meet high standards of quality requirements. This method is particularly suitable for high-precision, miniaturized bearing caps, such as high-end forklifts with extremely high requirements or application scenarios with strict requirements on component precision. If you want your forklift bearing cap to have better strength, lighter weight, and better wear resistance, then precision casting is definitely a good choice!


But then again, sand casting is not vegetarian! As a long-standing casting process, sand casting still occupies an important position in casting bearing cap manufacturing due to its mature process, lower cost and stronger adaptability. For some bearing caps with larger sizes or higher wall thickness requirements, sand casting is a more economical choice. Sand casting has high production efficiency and is particularly suitable for mass production, which can effectively reduce the cost of each piece. If your casting bearing cap is mainly used for standard forklifts, heavy-duty forklifts or applications that do not require particularly high precision, then sand casting is your "cost-effective king"!
