Diploma in Metallurgical Engineering Syllabus

Foundry technology deals with the processes of making castings by using various patterns to prepare molds.

The two primary methods of mold formation are the regular sand method and other methods.

Understanding regular and advanced foundry processes is important for exploring detailed phenomena associated with new casting process parameters, helping to produce defect-free components with good quality.
