Principles of selection of precision casting parts
Casting is an ancient manufacturing method, which can be traced back to 6000 years ago in China. With the development of industrial technology, the development of casting technology is also very rapid, especially at the end of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, there are many new casting methods, such as low-pressure casting, ceramic casting, continuous casting, etc., which have been improved and practical in the second half of the 20th century. Due to the casting quality, casting accuracy, casting costs and casting automation requirements, casting technology to precision, large-scale, high quality, automation, clean and other directions, such as precision casting technology, continuous casting technology, special casting technology, casting automation, casting molding simulation technology. Casting main process includes: metal melting, model manufacturing, pouring solidification and demolding cleanup. Casting methods commonly used is sand casting, followed by special casting methods, such as: metal casting, molten mold casting, plaster casting ...... and so on. Sand casting can be divided into clay sand, organic binder sand, resin self-hardening sand, disappearing mold and so on.
