What is a casting?

The method of pouring liquid metal into a casting cavity that is adapted to the shape of the part, and then cooling and solidifying it to obtain a part or blank is called casting. Castings obtained by casting are called castings.
Casting structure design: Ensure its working performance and mechanical performance requirements, consider the requirements of casting process and alloy casting performance on the casting structure, and whether the casting structure design is reasonable or not has a great impact on the quality, productivity and cost of the casting.
Advantages:
1. It can produce parts with complex shapes, especially blanks with complex cavities (such as heaters)
2. Wide adaptability, and all commonly used metal materials in industry can be cast. A few grams to hundreds of tons.
3. The source of raw materials is wide. Low price. Scrap steel, scrap parts, chips
4. The shape and size of the casting are very close to the parts, reducing the amount of cutting, and there is little cutting processing.
