  6. Casting and Powder Metallurgy are said to be “net shape” or “near-net shape” processes. What does “net shape” mean?
  7. Briefly explain why casting tends to produce grains perpendicular to the mold wall.
  1. In Powder Metallurgy, why is a protective atmosphere (no oxygen) needed in the sintering operation? Part III: Identification: 13 points
  2. (10pts) For the mold shown below, label the components that have letters pointing to them: Ostwald
  3. (3 pts) What is the specific name for this manufacturing process? Kalpakjian Part IV: Problem Solving: 10 points Calculate the dimensions of an effective riser for a casting that is a 1” x 3” x 6” rectangular plate. Assume that the casting and riser are not connected except by a gate and runner, and that the riser is a cylinder of height/diameter ratio H/D = 2.0.
