Moulding Materials in Foundry Technology 3 credits

This course provides a general overview of different moulding materials, mould/coremakig methods and quality control measurements. The main aim of the course is to enhance the knowledge by giving explanations to the mould and coremaking processes commonly employed. The course is primarily based on weekly lectures which are recorded and available online. The lectures for each week are divided into a number of shorter sessions. For each course week there are also relevant parts in the mandatory and the recommended course literature. To deepen the understanding of the course content and to implement it into practice, four Mandatory Quizzes, four Challenges of the Week and two online Laboratory Exercises are to be performed.
