Study of technology of foundry / Asliza Kamaruddin and Normaslina Alias

Our project is to study about the Principle Of Foundry Technology. It will includes the whole process of producing casting, which is that we found that its maybe classified into 5 stages. Foundry engineering deals with the process of making casting in mould formed in either sand or some other material. The casting of metals is one of the oldest industries in the world. As far back as 5000 BC, metallic objects in the form of knives, coins, arrows and household articles were in use. The superior quality of metals and the absence of any impurities in them emphasize the ability and precise quality control of the refining process even in these day. Even though the techniques and methods of production have changed considerably but the basic principles still remain almost the same. Casting have several characteristic that clearly define their role in modern equipment used for transportation, communication, power, agriculture, construction and in industry.
