Types of Sand Casting
Sand casting is one of the oldest and most versatile metal casting processes. It involves creating a mold from a sand aggregate and pouring molten metal into the mold cavity. The different types are primarily classified based on the sand used and the method of mold production. 1. Classification by Sand Bonding Method & Mold […]
How the Normalizing Process Works
Normalizing is performed after fabrication techniques such as stamping or casting. This is because metals that have been quenched for hardness typically exhibit reduced ductility. Normalizing transforms your metal’s crystal structure to a ductile state, enhancing toughness and brittleness. Consequently, normalized steels and nickel alloys are easier to machine than their untreated counterparts. Normalizing […]
