What are the ingredients used in casting?
Gray cast iron is the most widely used material used in the casting process. Other common metals in this process include cast iron, aluminum, steel, copper and zinc. Of course, it is possible to use non-metallic materials such as concrete, glass, plastic and resin to make cast parts.
Choosing the right material for manufacturing parts depends on parameters such as production volume, economic efficiency, melting temperature, cooling speed, wear resistance, weight and vibration absorption capability. The type of material used is one of the criteria for dividing the types of casting methods and their applications.
