The part in this example was originally a copper sand casting in the late 1960s. After that, the foundry created the part by machining and welding it out of solid billet.

Lost foam offers tremendous design flexibility by allowing multiple features to be oriented as required for the form, fit, and functionality compared to the conventional sand-casting process, which

The foundry that produced this hydraulic monoblock for the construction industry converted the process from green sand casting with traditional core tooling to green sand with 3D printed cores.&nbs

This engine block casting demonstrates how the toolingless 3D precision sand printing additive manufacturing process coupled with the low pressure casting process allows thin-wall, light-weight com
