Metal mold casting, also known as permanent mold casting, is a manufacturing process where molten metal is poured into a reusable mold made of durable metals like steel or cast iron. The process begins with the design and preparation of the mold, which is often coated with a refractory material to prevent the molten metal from sticking and to extend the mold’s lifespan. The mold is preheated to a specific temperature to ensure proper metal flow and reduce thermal shock.
Once the mold is ready, molten metal is poured into the mold cavity through a gating system, typically using gravity, although low-pressure or vacuum methods can also be employed. The metal cools and solidifies within the mold, forming the desired part. After sufficient cooling, the mold is opened, and the cast part is ejected. Additional finishing processes like trimming, machining, or surface treatment may be required to meet final specifications.

1.Molten Metal Preparation
The desired metal is melted in a furnace or crucible until it reaches the proper temperature.
2. Pouring
The molten metal is poured into the prepared mold.
3. Solidification
The metal cools and solidifies within the mold, taking the shape of the cavity.
4. Mold Removal
Once the metal has solidified, the mold is removed from the casting. This can involve breaking the sand mold in sand casting, or using ejector pins in die casting.
5. Finishing
The casting may require additional finishing processes, such as machining, grinding, or polishing, to achieve the desired surface finish and tolerances.
