1.1 Context
Developments in the foundry
Casting has been able to constantly improve its performance thanks to advances in all its technical components, both in terms of precision and reliability, enabling it to compete with, or even replace, parts usually manufactured by other techniques, in severe or safety applications. These developments and advantages explain why castings are so widely used throughout the world in all branches of industry.
The foundry can meet a wide range of sometimes contradictory requirements by modernizing its production techniques and developing new alloys and manufacturing processes, thanks to a more scientific and precise...
