Wear Parts in Agriculture Industry
Agricultural wear parts are components that have strong wear resistance. These components are used in agricultural machines such as harvesting machinery equipment and tillage equipment. They are highly durable and designed to perform under harsh conditions. Some examples of agricultural wear components include harvested knife guards, tillage tools, and more.
Ucasting manufactures a full range of high-quality wear parts at competitive prices to help you compete in the market. We also accept special designs and offer OEM services. You can choose your desired cast alloy, sizes, and other specifications. And we will manufacture them exactly to your requirements.
Investment Casting for Agricultural Parts
Investment casting is a process used for producing agricultural wear components in aluminum, iron, steel, and other materials. In this process, the molten metals will be poured into the molds. After that, they will be cooled to room temperature and solidified. Before beginning the investment casting process, a mold or tooling is made to achieve the shape required.
The parts can be investment cast using the lost form casting process or lost wax casting process.
Our Capabilities
Surface Color Painting
Occasionally, the agricultural parts need to be painted since they will be installed to machines of various brands. Ucasting can color-paint the parts based on your sample and other requirements.
Custom Logo
For the surface of the parts, we offer a custom logo service. You can let us know your desired font size and other specifications.
Machining Capability
To guarantee precise fitment, machining will be done after the investment casting. The parts can be machined in some of their areas such as brazed surfaces, threaded holes, etc.
Heat Treatment
To increase the wear resistance of agricultural parts, heat treatment like tempering and quenching should be carried out after casting.
Tungsten Carbide Brazing
Heat treatment can increase the wear resistance of agricultural parts. But it is insufficient when the part is used in a demanding working environment. So, to enhance their wear resistance and service life, tungsten carbide brazing will be done. This process works by brazing the tungsten carbides to the cast body of the part. The tungsten tiles can be customized based on your dimensions.
Quality Control
To ensure the quality of our agricultural parts, we have complete control over all phases of manufacturing, including:
- laser cutting on our 6kW fiber machine
- CNC lathe machining & machine centers
- heat treating
