Cast and molded parts

Cast and molded parts are created by solidifying a molten material in a mold.





Surface texture symbol
Surface texture symbols are used to indicate sufaces of a casting that will be machined after the casting process.




Welded parts
Welding joins pieces of metal by heating the surfaces to the point of melting using a blowtorch, electric arc, or other means. Sometimes a filler rod is used to add material to the weld joint.
