    Anti-Gravity Casting: Superior Internal Quality for Your Parts

    Unlike conventional gravity pouring, anti-gravity casting fills from the bottom under controlled pressure — directly reducing porosity and shrinkage risk in your castings:

    • Significantly reduced porosity and shrinkage
    • Better surface finish and dimensional accuracy
    • Superior mechanical properties for critical applications
    • More consistent wall thickness in complex geometries

    Process & Capabilities FAQ

    What casting processes does Ktech Casting use?+
    Primary process: anti-gravity (low-pressure / counter-gravity) sand casting — filling from the bottom under controlled pressure for reduced internal defects. Conventional sand casting also available for suitable applications.
    Can you handle complex internal passages and thin-wall castings?+
    Yes. Core making and anti-gravity process optimized for complex internal passages, thin walls (min 2 mm), and multi-runner exhaust manifolds — if your part has complex geometry, this is the right fit.
    Do you do CNC machining and heat treatment in-house?+
    Yes. CNC machining and heat treatment are fully in-house — you receive finished parts ready for assembly, no secondary outsourcing needed.
    What is your monthly production capacity?+
    Stable monthly output of 30,000–40,000 pieces, annual capacity exceeding 400,000 units across all product lines.
    How fast can you deliver prototypes?+
    3D-printed sand molds deliver functional cast prototypes in 25–30 days, accelerating your design validation. Production tooling: 30–35 days.
