Casting Process topics include: Casting advantages and disadvantages, casting techniques, laser and electron beam melting using rapid prototyping. The casting process involves pouring molten material into a mold cavity that has the shape of the final part. The material cools and solidifies into the desired shape.  Here are some types of casting processes: Permanent mold casting: Also known as gravity die casting, this process uses a reusable mold to produce a large number of castings. The molten metal is poured into the mold, which fills by gravity. The mold is then opened, the casting is... Show more
