CHOOSING CASTING PROCESS
Consider the castingprocess at 645 B.C, the first traces of the Sand Molding
was found. Now consider the state-of-the-art Electromagnetic casting process.
Truly, the Casting process has traversed a long path and impacted human
civilization for nearly five millennia.
With technological advances, metal casting is playing a greater role in our everyday lives and is more essential than it has ever been.

Tip :
- For any Metal Casting Process, selection of right alloy, size, shape, thickness, tolerance, texture, and weight, is very vital.
- Special
requirements such as, magnetism, corrosion, stress distribution also
influence the choice of the Metal Casting Process.
- Views of the Tooling Designer; Foundry / Machine House needs, customer's exact product requirements, and secondary operations like painting, must be taken care of before selecting the appropriate Metal Casting Process.
- Tool cost.
- Economics of machining versus process costs.
- Adequate protection / packaging, shipping constraints, regulations of the final components, weights and shelf life of protective coatings also play their part in the Metal Casting process
