Ceramic molding is a versatile and precise manufacturing process that transforms clay or porcelain into intricate shapes. Employing techniques like slip casting or press molding, artisans create precise replicas of original models. After molding, the ceramics are fired at high temperatures, ensuring durability and aesthetic appeal.
Ceramic mold casting, also known ambiguously as ceramic molding, [1] is a group of metal casting processes that use ceramics as the mold material. It is a combination of plaster mold casting and investment casting. [2] [3] There are two types of ceramic mold casting: the Shaw process and the Unicast process. [4]

Pottery had its roots deep in the subcontinent and Bangladesh was not an exception. Although Bangladesh is predominantly a Muslim country, pottery is predominantly a Hindu craft. Symmetrical, smooth, bright and unless it falls, it would last a long time-these attributes made things of pottery very popular.
Ceramic forming techniques are ways of forming ceramics, which are used to make everything from tableware such as teapots to engineering ceramics such as computer parts. Pottery techniques include the potter's wheel , slip casting and many others.
The casting slip is poured into a porous mould. Due to capillary pressure from the mold, a semi-solid particulate layer is formed on the mould through deposition of the solids in the slip. After a period of time, determined in advance by testing, the cast piece is removed from the mold; the cast needs to be sufficiently firm to handle without ...
Injection moulding (U.S. spelling: injection molding) is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mould, or mold. Injection moulding can be performed with a host of materials mainly including metals (for which the process is called die-casting ), glasses , elastomers , confections , and most commonly ...
