S.S. CASTING FINISHED PRODUCTS
[CODE NO. 3213]
A foundry is a factory which produces metal casting from either ferrous or non-ferrous alloys. Metals are turned into parts by melting the metal into a liquid, pouring the metal in a mold, and then removing the mold material or casting. The most common metal alloys processed are aluminium and cast iron. However, other metals, such as steel, magnesium, copper, tin, and zinc, can be processed.
