Question

The use of cores is always dependent on the type of sand used.

(a) True

(b) False

I have been asked this question in examination.

I would like to ask this question from Cores and Core Prints topic in section Foundry Introduction of Foundry and Forging

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) True

To elaborate: The design of the casting depends upon the area where it is supposed to be used. Hence, the sand type is a major function of the foundry. The core is dependent on the sand as it comes in contact with it.
