Looking for complex sand cores that can improve the performance and weight of cast components? Looking to produce castings fast and without the cost of tooling? Then you should be looking at sand 3D printing. See how foundries are succeeding: https://hubs.li/Q03d5bcM0

We are on-site at the 5th Formstoffforum (VDG-Akademie) in the Georgius Agricola University Library at TU Bergakademie Freiberg! The Formstoffforum is addressing experts from the foundry industry looking to learn about the latest developments and trends in mold and core production and engage in discussions with industry peers. Don’t miss: Highlight on March 27th: Martin Kaiser (ExOne) & Ronaldo Rodrigues da Costa (ASK Chemicals) will present: “Smoothing Possibilities for 3D-Printed Furan-Bonded Sand Molds: Stair-Step Reduction and Coating Systems in Iron Casting Applications” Meet also on-site: Andreas Müller, Product Manager Indirect Printing & Process Development – Your go-to expert for insights into our technologies Florian Rauscher, Materials Development – Specialist in material research and innovation Continuous Development in Material Performance! Material Performance has been a key topic within our development strategy for many years. As part of this ongoing effort, our Customer Applications Team at ExOne, in collaboration with Nehr Saurer GmbH Eisengie?erei, conducted a comprehensive test series to assess how different sand types impact: ? Foundry productivity (e.g., output & machine payback time) ? Surface quality of mold packages & castings The tests were carried out using four sand grades on the ExOne S-Max? Pro sand binder jetting system – without additional coatings to analyze the pure material properties. As we continue to drive process optimization, our collaboration with ASK Chemicals focuses on developing new solutions to further enhance material performance Discover the test results in our Material Performance whitepaper: https://hubs.li/Q03dvwyG0 Join us on-site and discuss the findings with our experts!

How do you quantify tolerances with 3D sand-printed cores? An AFS research study explored this to start the process of adding the binder jetting method to the ISO8062 standard. The results indicated that cores 3D printed with binder jetting are predicted to be one grade tighter in dimensional tolerance over conventional sandcastings.

According to Wohlers Associates, Powered by ASTM, "Foundries are shifting from conventional core rooms to digital sand printing, consolidating multiple cores into a single, complex structure. This transition enhances design flexibiltiy and casting quality while reducing labor, lead time, and the need for tooling design, fabrication, and storage." https://hubs.li/Q03cwZ2d0 Is your foundry ready to make the shift? Learn more about the S-Max digital sand printing system. https://hubs.li/Q03cwNjX0

3D printing has transformed metalcasting; and don't just take it from us - the team at Modern Casting wrote this overview of how additive technologies are allowing optimized designs and production.
