  2. Metal clay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_clay

    Origami-like silver objects made from metal clay with silver powder. Metal clay is a crafting medium consisting of very small particles of metal such as silver, gold, bronze, or copper mixed with an organic binder and water for use in making jewelry, beads and small sculptures. Originating in Japan in 1990, metal clay can be shaped just like ...

  3. Metal casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_casting

    Molten metal before casting Casting iron in a sand mold. In metalworking and jewelry making, casting is a process in which a liquid metal is delivered into a mold (usually by a crucible) that contains a negative impression (i.e., a three-dimensional negative image) of the intended shape.

  4. Jewelry model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewelry_model

    A jewelry model is a master design that is copied to make many similar pieces of jewelrey. The model may either be a piece of actual finished jewelrey or a low-cost blank fashioned from base metal. In either case, the model is used to create the casting mold from which all subsequent pieces are made. Prefabricated models are available from a ...

  5. Centrifugal casting (silversmithing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_casting...

    When the metal is molten the arm is released, forcing (by centrifugal force) the metal into the mold. The high forces imposed on the metal overcome the viscosity, resulting in a finely detailed workpiece. A similar advantage may be obtained by vacuum casting or pressure casting. For casting of small parts using hot metal, a disk shaped mold is ...

  6. Casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting

    New technology was developed to mass-produce the new copper coins. Introduced was a multi-piece, stackable coin template mold. Multiple molds were placed on top of one another into a clay cylinder so molten metal could be poured down the center, filling and solidifying in the open spaces. [4]

  7. Molding sand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_sand

    Its principal use is in making molds for metal casting. The largest portion of the aggregate is a sand, usually silica or sometimes olivine. [1] There are many recipes for the proportion of clay, but they all strike different balances between moldability, surface finish, and ability of the hot molten metal to degas.

  8. Ceramic forming techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_forming_techniques

    Ceramic shell casting techniques using silica, zirconia and other refractory materials are currently used by the metal parts industry for 'net casting', forming precision shell moulds for molten metal casting. The technique involves a successive wet dipping and dry powder coating or stucco to build up the mould shell layer.

  9. Gravity casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_casting

    Gravity casting is among the oldest known processes for fabricating metals and metal alloys. [1] It involves the pouring of molten metal from a crucible into a mold under only the force of gravity, without the use of pressurized gases, vacuums, or centrifugal force.
