The Iron Casting involves the use of a furnace, metal, pattern, and sand mold.
The metal is melted in the furnace and then ladled and poured into the
cavity of the sand mold, which is formed by the pattern. The sand mold
separates along a parting line and the solidified casting can be
removed.
Ductile Iron Casting has a clear advantage over malleable iron for applications where low solidification shrinkage is needed or where the section is too thick to permit uniform solidification as white iron
Ductile Iron is specifically useful in many automotive components, where strength needs surpass that of aluminum but do not necessarily require steel. Other major industrial applications include off-highway diesel trucks, class 8 trucks, agricultural tractors, and oil well pumps.
