Efficiency and Precision through Sand 3D Printing in Iron Casting
Ekstrametal, the first Turkish foundry to adopt sand binder jetting, delivers top-quality cast parts by 3D printing molds and cores.
Ekstrametal, a trailblazer in the foundry industry, was the first in Türkiye to embrace sand binder jetting technology from ExOne. Today, it is still the sole Turkish foundry with two 3D printers, a testament to its commitment to innovation and progress. By fusing sand 3D printing with traditional casting, Ekstrametal is revolutionizing the field of iron casting.
Ekstrametal has produced numerous sand 3D-printed molds and cores for various applications. Depending on customer agreements, the foundry sometimes prints the cores only (hybrid production). The following are select challenging customer projects solved by sand 3D printing technology:
- Rapid prototyping of SSF-CGI cylinder head
- Short series productions
- Engineering collaborations with customers
- GJV-450 machining fixture
“The best lead time we ever had with 3D printing was 10 or 11 days, including machining two extensive and heavy parts of around 400 or 500 kg. All foundries know this is a very good lead time.”
Dr. Arda Çetin, Deputy General Manager for Commercial and Investments of Ekstrametal.
