Yes. MPM conducts comprehensive reverse sand testing to evaluate used molding sand and identify changes in properties such as active clay, moisture, LOI, MB Value, permeability, and compactability. The results help diagnose the root causes of sand-related casting defects and improve overall sand system performance.
Our laboratory performs a complete range of green sand tests, including Moisture Content, Compactability, Permeability, Green Compression Strength, Shear Strength, Loss on Ignition (LOI), Methylene Blue (MB) Value, Active Clay, Dead Clay, Grain Fineness Number (GFN), and other quality control parameters to ensure consistent molding performance.
Yes. MPM provides advanced analytical services including Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA/DTA) and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) to evaluate thermal behavior, mineral composition, elemental chemistry, and raw material quality. These analyses support product development, quality assurance, and process optimization.
Yes. MPM provides technical support for induction furnace trials, including melt treatment evaluation, inoculation and alloy addition optimization, slag assessment, carbon and sulphur analysis, and metallurgical performance validation. Our experts help optimize melting practices to improve metal quality, process consistency, and casting performance.
Our laboratory combines scientific testing with extensive foundry expertise to identify the root causes of defects such as blowholes, pinholes, shrinkage, inclusions, veining, and poor surface finish. Based on the findings, we provide practical recommendations to improve process stability, reduce rejection rates, and enhance casting quality.
The MB Value test measures the amount of active bentonite present in molding sand. It helps evaluate the effectiveness of the clay bond, monitor sand quality, and determine the need for fresh bentonite additions to maintain consistent molding properties.
