Modern casting techniques

Modern casting techniques involve shaping metals or other materials into desired forms by pouring molten material into molds. Advances like computer-aided design (CAD) and simulation allow precise mold creation and better control over the process, reducing waste and enhancing quality. Techniques such as lost-wax casting, sand molding, and investment casting enable production of complex, detailed parts efficiently. Automation and robotics improve safety and consistency, while new materials and rapid prototyping shorten production times. Together, these innovations make casting more accurate, cost-effective, and suitable for creating everything from tiny electronic components to large industrial parts.
