Molten metal is a serious hazard in melting pouring applications of metal casting. Workers who execute tasks with or near the molten metal are highly prone to risks, such as coming in contact with metal splashes or be exposed to electromagnetic radiation. Some of the circumstances that may increase...



Substantial concentrations of airborne contaminants can be found in various aspects of foundry operations. These contaminants can be found in several areas including pattern making, core making, mold making, fettling and sand plant regions. The airborne contaminants in foundries are generally released from the - Preparation of scrap using...



The metal casting industry has been, and continues to be, a key component of the industrial backbone of various nations and countries. The industry gives employment to a large number of people and supplies huge amount of castings thereby impacting almost every other industrial and commercial domain. The metal...



The term cast iron is used to describe an entire family of metals with a broad range of properties. Like steel, it is also a generic term that designates a family of metals. Both steels as well as cast irons are mainly iron with carbon (C) as the prime alloying...

Foundries generally have a very hot working environment because of the furnaces and molten metal. The molds and core heating, the ladles preheating and the heat treatment of metal castings make additional sources of heat. Personnel employed in furnace or ladle slagging and those executing tasks in close proximity...



Semi-solid metal casting (SSM) is a virtually net shape production technique that gives manufacturers and users of copper alloy parts a substitute and, in various cases, an economical way to to manufacture bulk quantities of parts with superior component quality compared to conventional pressure die casting method. The capability to...



Investment casting has the potential to create monolithic cast systems, which replace multi-piece fabrications from solid hog-outs. This has provided a new perspective for manufacturing engineers to conceive, while designing new structures. The superior design attributes of investment casting has made it useful in a variety of industrial applications,...
