Sand casting is a process enabling the manufacturing of metal parts by pouring of melted metal in a mold composed of sand, clay and catalysts. Molds are to be destroyed during the process, they are therefore non-permanent. Sand casting manufacturing stages: Steel, resin or wood pattern realization. Forming of the upper and lower parts of the sand mold around the pattern.
