Modern core processes for the non-ferrous foundry

Abstract

THE term "Non-ferrous Foundry Practice" , when used in the United States, actually refers to all types of metal cast with the exception of iron and steel. I am emphasizing this definition here specifically so that everyone understands we are discussing light metal alloys, 'exotic' elements (such as beryllium, titanium, etc.) as well as the normal copper-bearing alloys, brass and bronze. This latter category is usually normally thought of when non-ferrous practice is considered.
