Casting Process
Consider the casting process 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…
Induction furnace
Induction heating is a heating method. The heating by the induction method occurs when an electrically conductive material is placed in a varying magnetic field. Induction heating is a rapid…
Reverberatory furnace
A furnace or kiln in which the material under treatment is heated indirectly by means of a flame deflected downward from the roof. Reverberatory furnaces are used in opper, tin,…
Alloy Melting and Pouring
The preparation of molten metal for casting is referred to as melting. It is usually done in a specifically designated area of the foundry, and the molten metal is transferred…
Crucible Furnace
Crucible furnaces are small capacity typically used for small melting applications. Crucible furnace is suitable for the batch type foundries where the metal requirement is intermittent. The metal is placed…
Transfer Molding
As with compression molding, transfer molding requires secondary raw material preparation into pre-forms. It differs, however, in the placement of these pre-forms into a "pot" located between the top plate…
Compression Molding
Compression molding is a process that involves taking a rubber compound or mixed raw material and creating "pre-forms" in the basic shape of the end product. The pre-forms provide a surplus of…
Rubber Injection Molding
Based off of a process intended for the molding of plastics, injection molding of rubber began in the mid 1960s. Rubber injection molding successfully alters the plastics process by heating…
Injection molding of polymers
Injection Molding is a process in which molten polymer is forced under high pressure into a mold cavity through an opening (sprue). Polymer material in form of pellets is fed into an Injection…
Manufacturing of Bricks for Masonry Construction
The process of manufacturing of bricks from clay involves preparation of clay, molding and then drying and burning of bricks. The bricks are building materials which are generally available as rectangular blocks.…
