CASTING
GLOBAL
CASTING
PRODUCTION
 The first casting on record is a copper frog
from Mesopotamia, dated to around 3200 BC.
 Iron, a more common material cast today, was
HISTORY
discovered in China around 2000 BC and first
used iron in a casting process around 600 BC.
Process in which molten metal flows by
gravity or other force into a mold where it
solidifies in the shape of the mold cavity.

CASTING
Casting is one of the easiest classes of
process to understand. Casting is simply a
process where a mould is filled with a
fluid, which then solidifies in the shape of
the mould cavity.
 Casting can be used to make a vast array of products, from
gas-turbine blades to cheap plastic toys.
CASTING  Cast parts can range in size from fractions of centimetres
and grams to over 10 metres in length and many tonnes.
 Complex 3D shapes can be made using casting processes.
CLASSIFICATION
CONSIDERATION
• Type of metal to be cast
• Size of part to be cast
• Required cast accuracy of the part
• Economics
• Required secondary operations such
as machining, hardening, welding,
and plating

 Pattern is replica of the object to be cast, use to prepare the
cavity into which molten metal will be poured during the
casting process.
 Patterns come in many materials, including wood, metal,
plastics, and wax. 
PATTERN AND  Mold is negative forms that are used to shape casting
materials, creating duplicates of the model (object) the
MOLD mold was made from. The resulting cast will be an exact
likeness of the shape of the hollow mold form.
 Mold metal must have higher melting temperature than
casting metal
EASY WAY….
The easiest example of what a mold is,
that almost everyone has used before, is
an ice cube tray. The hollow forms of
the mold get filled with water (the
casting material) to produce ice cubes.
The cubes are released from the mold
and voila! Finished cast pieces.

MOLD MAKING

 Sand mold making involves


placing a mold pattern
blank, packing the sand
tightly and removing the
blank before pouring
molten metal into the
newly formed mold.
CLAMPING
CLAMPING

 Place the cores and close the mold halves and


securely clamp them together.
 It is extremely important to keep the mold
halves firmly closed to prevent material loss.
• The molten metal is kept hot in a furnace at a set
temperature.
• After clamping the mold halves, take the molten
metal from the furnace and pour it into the mold.
• There should be enough molten metal to fill the
entire cavity and all channels in the mold. This
process must be completed quickly to prevent early
solidification.

 The molten metal is kept hot in

 After clamping the mold
halves, take the molten metal
from the furnace and pour it
into the mold.
 There should be enough molten
metal to fill the entire cavity
and all channels in the mold.
This process must be
completed quickly to prevent
early solidification.
REMOVAL

 After the preset


solidification time has
passed, you can break the
sand mold and simply
remove the casting.
 This step, often called a
shakeout, can be
completed with a vibrating
machine.

MANUFACTURING –
FORMING PROCESS
 Manufacturing: transforming raw materials into finished
goods on a large scale
 Forming: processes are used to convert semi finished
products into finished products through plastic deformation.
Deformation
1. Elastic Deformation
2. Plastic Deformation
Elastic and Plastic Deformation
Elastic
Deformation
deformation that is fully reversed (or recovered)
when the load is removed.
Plastic
Deformation
Force can change the shape of an
object
Plastic
Deformation
BASIC The ability of a solid material to undergo permanent

FORMING deformation, a non-reversible change of shape in response to


applied forces.
