    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_casting

    Sand casting, also known as sand molded casting, is a metal casting process characterized by using sand—known as casting sand—as the mold material. The term "sand casting" can also refer to an object produced via the sand casting process. Sand castings are produced in specialized factories called foundries. In 2003, over 60% of all metal ...

  4. Molding sand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_sand

    Sand casting is one of the earliest forms of casting practiced due to the simplicity of materials involved. It still remains one of the cheapest ways to cast metal because of that same simplicity. Other methods of casting, such as those using shell molds , boast higher quality of surface finish but have a higher cost.

  5. Pattern (casting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_(casting)

    In casting, a pattern is a replica of the object to be cast, used to form the sand mould cavity into which molten metal is poured during the casting process. Once the pattern has been used to form the sand mould cavity, the pattern is then removed, molten metal is then poured into the sand mould cavity to produce the casting.

  6. Casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casting

    Casting is a manufacturing process in which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process.

    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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DISAMATIC

    A molding sand mixture, usually green sand or bentonite, is blown into a rectangular steel chamber using compressed air. The molding sand is then squeezed between two patterns, which are on the two ends of the chamber. After squeezing, one of the chamber plates swings open and the opposite plate pushes the finished mold onto a conveyor.

  9. Ablation casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablation_casting

    Ablation casting is a sand casting process that uses water to wash away the mold while the metal solidifies. This process produces castings with high mechanical properties, reduced defects, and a fine microstructure. Here are some steps in the ablation casting process:
