The main processes of sand casting are:
1. Mold production part: make molds according to the requirements of drawings. Generally, wooden molds can be used for single-piece production, plastic molds and metal molds can be made for mass production, and templates for large-scale castings can be made.

2. Sand mixing stage: According to the requirements of sand mold manufacturing and different types of castings, qualified molding sand is prepared for molding.

3. Modeling (core making) stage: including modeling (using sand to form the cavity of the casting), core making (forming the internal shape of the casting), and mold matching (putting the core into the cavity, and closing the upper and lower flasks together) ). Modeling is a key link in casting.

4. Smelting stage: prepare the chemical composition according to the required metal composition, select a suitable melting furnace to melt the alloy material, and form a qualified liquid metal liquid (including qualified components and qualified temperature)

5. Pouring stage: pour the qualified molten metal into the sand box equipped with the mold. The pouring stage is very dangerous, so special attention should be paid to it.

6. Cleaning stage: After the molten metal solidifies after pouring, remove the molding sand and knock out the gate and other accessories to form the required casting.
