Modules
Coldbox Core Quality and Casting Defects
This module identifies how sand can impact core and mold making production costs and casting quality with an emphasis on controlling the temperature and moisture of your system. The various properties for binder selection and the consequences of poor performance for each property will be identified. This module concludes with identifying core and casting defects and their causes. By the end of this module, you will be able to identify how sand and binder selection can impact the quality of cores and determine causes for core and casting defects. (0.1 CEU)
ACCESS THIS MODULEColdbox Coremaking Components
The top three coldbox systems are identified in this module. The different types of foundry sands and how they impact coldbox molds and cores are explored. By the end of this module, you will be able to explain the components of the top three coldbox systems. (0.1 CEU)
ACCESS THIS MODULEColdbox Coremaking Process
In this module, the coldbox coremaking process, related terminology, and the benefits/factors to using the coldbox process are identified. By the end of this module, you will be able to explain the coldbox coremaking process. (0.1 CEU)
ACCESS THIS MODULEColdbox Tooling Design Basics
In this module, the key aspects of well-designed tooling are identified and applied to a case study. The types of core boxes, blow tubes, ejector pins, parting seals, and vents are identified. By the end of this module, you will be able to identify the key aspects of well-designed tooling. (0.1 CEU)
