Super Metal. The number one most plentiful metal in the world is aluminum. Then there is iron, magnesium, calcium, and everything else. Aluminum is a commonly used metal. Since the detection of electrolysis to extract it from ores made it reasonably priced and practical. Before that detection in the 19th century, this metal was higher priced than gold and silver. The reason for this unusual occurrence was that aluminum, though plentiful, was tough to create and therefore highly priced to manufacture. Nowadays, it is cheaper and used in different applications. Besides from such diverse functions as high-voltage electric lines, food containers, and mirror coatings, this silver grey metal is also in aero planes and automobiles, marine outboard motors, escalators, guitar amplifiers, light fixtures, and typewriters as aluminum cast parts.
Casting procedures for aluminum can be chosen depending on what they are to be used for. The metal is so flexible that it can be shaped or cast using all the methods known to metal. The aluminum casting process is as varied as the metal’s many applications. Even though in pure form it is soft, its alloy is quite firm. The metals appropriate to make aluminum alloys are zinc, copper, manganese, and magnesium.
Aluminum part castings use a number of metallurgical casting procedures. The molten aluminum is poured into a mold. The mold could be made of sand, plaster, wax, or a stronger metal. These molds are pre-shaped into the desired product. They are sturdy enough to withstand multiple castings. The different processes of casting are called die casting, sand casting, investment casting or the lost wax process, and continuous casting.
