2, casting method with the production batch.Low pressure casting, die casting, centrifugal casting and other casting method, for equipment and mold is expensive, so only suitable for mass production.
3, modelling method should be suitable for factory conditions.
Also is the production of large machine tool lathe bed casting, such as, for example, generally USES the core modelling method, don't make shape and sand box, core in a hole in the ground;While other factories use sand box modelling method, production.Different enterprise production conditions (including equipment, sites, staff quality, etc.), production habits, accumulated the experience of each different, what should be considered according to these conditions suitable for products and is not suitable for (or not) to do the product.
