Iron

 

Iron Castings Are Made of Cast Iron As The Main Material, Which Has Wear Resistance, Pressure Resistance And Good Shock Absorption Performance. Its Internal Graphite Structure Can Effectively Disperse Stress. The Casting Process Gives It A High Degree of Design Freedom, Suitable For Manufacturing Parts With Complex Shapes, And Low Production Costs. However, The Material Is Relatively Brittle And Its Tensile Strength Is Weaker Than That of Steel, So Heat Treatment Is Required To Improve The Mechanical Properties. It Is Typically Used In Load-Bearing Structural Parts Such As Machine Tool Beds And Engine Cylinders.

Gray Iron

Gray Cast Iron Is A Cast Iron Material Characterized By Flake Graphite. It Is Widely Used For Its Good Casting Performance, Excellent Shock Absorption And Wear Resistance. The Graphite Structure Gives It Low Notch Sensitivity And High Thermal Conductivity, But Also Leads To Lower Strength And Ductility. Gray Cast Iron Is Easy To Process And Low In Cost. It Is Often Used For Parts That Need Shock Absorption, Such As Machine Tool Bases And Engine Cylinders.

Ductile Iron

Ductile Iron Is A High-Strength Cast Iron That Is Made By Adding Elements Such As Magnesium And Cerium To Make Graphite Precipitate In A Spherical Shape. Its Core Characteristics Are That Its Tensile Strength Is Close To That Of Cast Steel, While Retaining The Excellent Casting Performance, Wear Resistance And Shock Absorption Ability Of Cast Iron. The Spherical Graphite Structure Effectively Eliminates The Stress Concentration Effect Of Flake Graphite, Making The Material Have Both Good Ductility And Impact Toughness, And Performs Better Than Ordinary Cast Iron Under Complex Stress Conditions. This Material Has The Characteristics Of Low Cost And Easy Processing, And Is Widely Used In Engineering Parts That Require A Balance Between Strength And Toughness, Such As Water Pipelines, Engine Crankshafts, Gear Boxes, etc.
