How does the Sand casting process work?
Sand casting is one of the most common metal casting processes, and its mould is made of two halves. Two halves are contained inside a flask box, the upper half is called the cope, and the bottom half is called the drag. The image below shows that the flask is divided into two halves. The line that separates the two halves is called the parting line.
The following are the seven main steps of the sand-casting cycle
Sand casting is used to produce a wide range of metal components, including engine blocks, cylinder heads, pump housings, and various industrial and automotive parts. Sand casting offers a lot of variability and flexibility in the size and complexity of the object being produced and is generally cost-effective, making it a great manufacturing process.
Compared to other casting methods, sand casting is generally considered a cost-effective option. Costs vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the part, the metal used, and the required finishing touches. Sand casting's ability to reuse and recycle sand contributes to its cost efficiency.
The sand casting process involves creating a mold using a pattern, pouring molten metal into the mold, cooling and solidifying the metal, and then removing the casting from the mold. It is a versatile and widely used casting method that can produce complex shapes and accommodate various metal alloys.
