2. Plaster mold casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plaster_mold_casting

   Like sand casting, plaster mold casting is an expendable mold process, however it can only be used with non-ferrous materials. It is used for castings as small as 30 g (1 oz) to as large as 7–10 kg (15–22 lb). Generally, the form takes less than a week to prepare. Production rates of 1–10 units/hr can be achieved with plaster molds. [1] [2]

3. Casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting

   Plaster and other chemical curing materials such as concrete and plastic resin may be cast using single-use waste molds as noted above, multiple-use 'piece' molds, or molds made of small rigid pieces or of flexible material such as latex rubber (which is in turn supported by an exterior mold). When casting plaster or concrete, the material ...

4. Spin casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_casting

   Commercial spin casting machines are available in two different types, front-loading and top-loading. Owing to the weight and bulkiness of spin casting molds, front loading machines tend to offer several advantages regarding ease of use and time savings. Rubber molds can become quite heavy, especially at larger diameters and when casting metal.

5. Hobby injection molding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobby_injection_molding

   7000 series like 7050 and 7075 are preferred for the best mechanical properties in aluminum, they are comparable to low to mid carbon steel molds. Copper alloys, like pewter, or bismuth alloy molds can be cast around a model to create strong molds with higher molding temperatures than epoxy molds.

6. Molding (process) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_(process)

   A mold or mould is a hollowed-out block that is filled with a liquid or pliable material such as plastic, glass, metal, or ceramic raw material. [2] The liquid hardens or sets inside the mold, adopting its shape. A mold is a counterpart to a cast. The very common bi-valve molding process uses two molds, one for each half of the object.

7. Lost-foam casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost-foam_casting

   Lost-foam casting (LFC) is a type of evaporative-pattern casting process that is similar to investment casting except foam is used for the pattern instead of wax. This process takes advantage of the low boiling point of polymer foams to simplify the investment casting process by removing the need to melt the wax out of the mold.
