ADVANTAGES OF CASTING PROCESS OVER OTHER MANUFACTURING PROCESS.

1.Casting can produce very complex geometry parts with internal Cavities.
2.It can be used to make small (few hundred grams) to very large size part (thousand of kilograms).
3.Any intricate shape can be Produced.
4.Any Material can be cast ferrous & non-ferrous.
5.It is economical,with very little wastage: the extra metal in each casting is re-mental and re-used.
6.Cast Metal is isotropic. It has the same physical and mechanical properties along and direction.
7.It is a process highly adaptable to the requirements of mass production large number of a given casting can be produced quickly. For Examples:In the automotive industry there is massive production of cast engine blocks and transmission cases.
8.Necessary tools required for castings are Cheaper & simple.
9.Certain metals & alloys are produced only by castings.
