Gating and Risering – Aluminum Sand Casting Process – Part 3.
Once we have the pattern and core boxes (if required) completed, it is time for rigging the pattern. Rigging the pattern means putting on the gating and risering. This is a very important part of the process because the gating and risering have to match exactly what we have simulated in our Magma Simulation Program….
Aluminum Sand Casting Process – Part 2.
