Overview of Casting and it's types..

Casting is the forming of metal or plastic parts by introducing the liquid material to a suitably shaped cavity (mold), allowing it to solidify, and then removing it from the mold. Further processing is usually required.

SAND CASTING

In sand casting the mold is made in a ‘molding box’ produced by inserting previously made ‘cores’ of baked sand. Molten metal is poured into runners until grinding and sandblasting. Practically any metal can be cast. Using a special particular sand and a wooden ‘pattern’. Holes are.- It appears in risers. The casting is cleaned by chipping.

SHELL CASTING

This is a sand casting method in which very fine sand is mixed with synthetic resin. The pattern is made of machined and polished iron. The mixed sand is blown into a patterned box and heated to create a hard, thin (6-10 mm) shape. Separate and remove this from the pattern and glue. We produce high-precision castings using a high-speed process.

DIE CASTING

This shape is made of steel and consists of several parts held together with dowels. The molten metal is fed by gravity or pressure and is ejected through the pins when solid. Alloys of aluminum, copper, manganese, and zinc are suitable for casting using this process.

INVESTMENT CASTING (LOST WAX)

Wax styles are crafted from an everlasting steel mold. The wax styles are lined with ceramic slurry that is hardened and baked in order that the wax is melted out. The hollow space is packed with molten steel to provide precision casting. Any steel may be forged by the use of this process.

CENTRIFUGAL CASTING

Cylindrical or round parts such as piston rings, cylinder liners, and pipes can be cast in rotary molds. Centrifugal force produces fine-grained castings. You can cast any metal using this process.
