Casting: Casting is to inject molten antimony liquid into a pre-prepared mold, and then cool and solidify to obtain the shape and size of the Pure Antimony. Casting is typically used to create Antimony ingots of 99.99% of regular shapes and sizes. The advantage of this processing method is low product cost because it can produce multiple products of the same size at the same time. The disadvantage is that casting is difficult to cope with the customization needs of special shapes and sizes.
Hammering: The main process is to use a large hammer to forcefully hit the melted and solidified Antimony Metal Ingots to form it into the required shape and size. This method can be used to produce Antimony ingots of 99.85% of irregular shapes and sizes. The advantage of hammering is that it can handle customization needs of special shapes and sizes, but the cost of production is higher.
