Introducing the basics of dam installation and methods to prevent "cracks" that can occur at the junction between the dam and the product!
The definitions of the runner and the gate vary somewhat depending on methods such as sand casting, lost-wax ceramic shell method, and block molding method. The term "runner" originally refers to the path through which molten metal reaches the product part of the mold, encompassing the entire wax tree except for the pouring basin. In this column, the term "gate" specifically defines the junction between the runner and the product within the runner. We encourage you to read on.
