A foundry is workshop in which casting of metal is done. Metals are cast into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal into a mold, and removing the mold material after the metal has solidified as it cools. In this process, parts of desired shapes and sizes can be formed. Some of the commonly used tools in foundry shop for molding process are shovel, trowel, riddle, rammer, draw spike, swab, vent wire and slick tool.

  • Ferrous foundries
  • Non-ferrous foundries
