Question

The typical parts like cylinder heads, gears and bushings are produced using the shell molding process.

(a) True

(b) False

I got this question in an interview for job.

This key question is from Core and Shell Moulding in section Moulding Machines & Special Moulding Processes of Foundry and Forging

Answer 1

Right answer is (a) True

For explanation I would say: The shell molding process is suitable for the castings which are low in weight. Usually, they weigh around 20 lbs. As these components are of low weight they are manufactured by the shell molding process.
