Part Geometry for Sand Casting
Feasible geometries for casting are limited by machine capabilities and by the selected VPE’s minimum castable diameter for holes and voids.
A part is geometrically feasible for sand casting only if it satisfies the following requirements:
• The selected VPE supports machines of the required types that can accommodate the part’s size and weight, as well as core sizes.
• Hole diameter and void box sizes are larger than the plant variable minSandCastableHoleDia for the selected VPE.
