Magnesium Casting FAQs

CPM Industries supplies magnesium sand castings for lightweight, performance-driven applications. We support prototype development through repeat production with consistent quality and dimensional control.

Yes. We support prototypes using 3D-printed sand molds or conventional tooling, depending on geometry, size, and timing.

Yes. We can support dimensional layouts, material certifications, and documentation packages such as FAIR or PPAP when required. Include any specific requirements with your RFQ.

Please include prints, 3D models if available, alloy requirements, estimated annual usage, machining scope, inspection requirements, and target timing. That helps us quote the right process.

Common magnesium alloys include AZ91D and AM60B, depending on the strength, weight, corrosion, and machining requirements of the application.

Magnesium is often selected when weight reduction is a major design goal while still maintaining good machinability and useful mechanical performance.

Yes. We regularly review geometry, draft, radii, wall sections, and machining assumptions before tooling is finalized to help avoid preventable issues.

Magnesium sand castings are a good fit for prototypes, specialty parts, and low- to medium-volume production where performance and weight matter more than very high production volume.
