Mould making is the crucial step in the production of castings. Making a mould properly means a casting half done. A sand mould is formed by packing sand into each half of the mould. The sand is packed around the pattern, which is a replica of the external shape of the casting. When the pattern is removed, the cavity that
Manufacturing Process Types: It is classified into four types: 1. Casting 2. Material Removal 3. Deformation Process 4. Consolidation Process Further Classified into: 1. Expandable mould a. Sand Casting b. Shell Casting c. Investment Casting d. Lost Wax Casting 2. Multiple Use Mould a. Die casting b. Permanent Mould Casting 3. Mechanical Machining a. Turning b. Milling c. Drilling
Metal casting process: Definition: “Casting (or) Foundry is a process of forming objects by putting molten metal in mold’s and letting to solidify.” Examples: Cameras, Carburetors, Engine Blocks, Crankshafts, Automotive Components, Agricultural Equipments, Road Equipments, and Pipes. Advantages and Uses of Casting: 1. The most intricate of shapes, both External and Internal may be cast. As a result many other
Engineering activities involved in the creation and operation of the technical and economic processes that convert raw materials, energy, and purchased items into components for sale to other manufacturers or into end products for sale to the customer. Defined in this way, manufacturing engineering includes product design and manufacturing system design as well as operation of the factory. More specifically
TYPES OF CHASSIS FRAMES: There are three types of frames 1. Conventional frame 2. Integral frame 3. Semi-integral frame 1. Conventional frame: It has two long side members and 5 to 6 cross members joined together with the help of rivets and bolts. The frame sections are used generally. a. Channel Section – Good resistance to bending b. Tabular Section
