  2. Plaster mold casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plaster_mold_casting

    Plaster mold casting is used when an excellent surface finish and good dimensional accuracy is required. Because the plaster has a low thermal conductivity and heat capacity , the metal cools more slowly than in a sand mold, which allows the metal to fill thin cross-sections; the minimum possible cross-section is 0.6 mm (0.024 in).

    The material is provided in bulk or in logs approximately 4" in diameter. [2] [3] The glass fibers in BMC increase the strength properties of the product to be higher than standard thermoplastic products. The viscosity of BMC dictates how effectively it can fill a mold. When at high viscosity, the pressure applied to the BMC is not enough for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staff_(building_material)

    It is chiefly made of plaster of Paris (powdered gypsum), with a little cement, glycerin, and dextrin, mixed with water until it is about as thick as molasses. When staff is cast in molds, it can form any shape. To strengthen it, coarse cloth or bagging, or fibers of hemp or jute, are put into the molds before casting. It becomes hard enough in ...

  5. Molding (process) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molding_(process)

    A mold or mould is a hollowed-out block that is filled with a liquid or pliable material such as plastic, glass, metal, or ceramic raw material. [2] The liquid hardens or sets inside the mold, adopting its shape. A mold is a counterpart to a cast. The very common bi-valve molding process uses two molds, one for each half of the object.

  6. Spin casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_casting

    Compared to the two main competing processes, injection molding and (zinc) die-casting, spin casting has significant advantages in terms of startup cost and ease of use. In some cases, spin casting can also be an alternative to sand casting, plaster mold casting or investment casting. These three techniques (sand, plaster and lost wax) are not ...

  7. Evaporative-pattern casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative-pattern_casting

    Evaporative-pattern casting is a type of casting process that uses a pattern made from a material that will evaporate when the molten metal is poured into the molding cavity. The most common evaporative-pattern material used is polystyrene foam. [1] The two major evaporative-pattern casting processes are: [1] Lost-foam casting; Full-mold casting
