The general lost foam casting process are as in the following:
• Use foam molds to produce foam patterns and casting gating systems
• Bond the patterns and runners to form a mold bundle module
• Dip paint on the module with refractory materials
• Dry the paint
• Put the module into the sand box and fill it with dry sand
• Vibrate molding in order to fill the cavity with dry sand and then compact the molding sand
• Pouring molten metal to vaporize the foam and then forming the desired castings
• After the castings have cooled, clean the castings. The dry sand can be recycled
