What your foundry engineer actually checks
From CAD to mold in a day
Binder jetting prints the mold and cores directly — no pattern, no corebox, no machining. At up to 216 L/h a 1.8×1.0×0.7 m box fills in hours, so complex castings iterate in days, not weeks.
An applications engineer on the line
Not a remote ticket queue. Our engineers help match sand and binder to your alloy, choose High-Speed or Plus, and dial in mold parameters — sub-4h reply, NDA standard.
The CH Leading L181007 is a large-format sand 3D printer that binder-jets full-size casting molds and cores straight from CAD — a 70.9×39.4×27.6 in / 1800×1000×700 mm forming box, at up to 216 L/h, with no patterns and no tooling. Choose the High-Speed single machine or the Plus configuration with AGV build-box transfer, automatic sand cleaning and a digital-factory production line.



Why foundries choose the L181007
Binder jetting turns CAD into casting molds and cores — no pattern, no corebox, no machining.
1.8×1.0×0.7 m build box
A 70.9×39.4×27.6 in / 1800×1000×700 mm forming box prints long molds and cores in one piece — long manifolds, pump and valve bodies, engine cores the CNC route can’t reach.
Up to 216 L/h build rate
The Plus prints 129–216 L/h at about 15 s per layer; the High-Speed 102–170 L/h at ~19 s. A full box finishes in hours, not the days a machined mold or pattern shop needs — CAD to sand in a day.
Nitrogen-free furan or inorganic binder
A self-developed nitrogen-free furan binder (low-corrosion, low-odor) or an inorganic binder, jetted onto silica, ceramic, cerabeads or CB sand — matched to your alloy and casting.
Built for the foundry floor
Built-in air-conditioning removes the need for a climate room, with all-direction uncured-sand recovery and an onboard high-capacity mixer — a self-contained line, not a lab tool.
How Additive Plus delivers it
Sized to your castings, installed and supported for production foundry use.
Match sand & binder
We confirm the sand type, binder chemistry and layer settings for your alloys and casting spec, and the right configuration — High-Speed or Plus.
Install & commission
Engineers install the printer, set up sand handling, recovery and (on Plus) the AGV line, and train your team on the print-to-mold workflow.
Qualify & support
We help dial in mold parameters for your castings and stay on the line for production support — sub-4h reply, NDA standard.
High-Speed vs Plus
Both configurations share the 1800×1000×700 mm forming box, print heads and open sand/binder system. The Plus adds automation and speed for higher-volume foundry production.
| Configuration | High-Speed | Plus |
|---|---|---|
| Layer time | ~19 s / layer | ~15 s / layer |
| Build rate | 102–170 L/h | 129–216 L/h |
| Sand handling | Onboard AC, all-direction recovery, high-capacity mixer | Adds AGV build-box transfer & automatic sand cleaning |
| Automation | Linear-motor motion, recipe-based parameters | Adds digital factory: mobile-app monitoring, remote maintenance, production-line ready |
Materials & Binders
Open sand and binder system, matched to the metal you pour and the surface finish you need.
- Sand: silica (quartz), ceramic, cerabeads (pearl), CB sand — 70–140 mesh (55–65 AFS)
- Binder: self-developed nitrogen-free furan (low-corrosion, low-odor) or inorganic binder
- Castings: aluminum, iron and steel alloys — molds and cores for sand casting
Phenolic binders are not recommended — they significantly shorten printhead life. The nitrogen-free furan system is the supported option, and we match the binder to your alloys at configuration.
