Learning outcomes
Foundry is a classic production technologies, in particular the knowledge of metal castings is an important part of engineering production, both in terms of its own production, as well as for cooperation. The course is especially mastery of modern methods of casting production in view of technological rules for elections casting technology, eliminating defects and maximum efficiency of production and the possibility of using advanced technologies in the production of automotive casting parts. Furthermore, the subject will become familiar with self-realization of computer programs in the foundry industry.
