Summary |
---|
The course focuses on the description of the foundry technologies used for the production of art castings, the description of the principles of the production of the permanent and permanent foundry model in dependence on the technology used in the production of the non-durable form and the analysis of the foundry materials used in casting production. Students will be briefed on the possibilities of Rapid Prototyping. |
