Answer / rajashree
Casting is a mass production process which involves molten
materials (such as metals, plastics or resins) being poured
into a mold, allowed to solidify and then extracted for
use. Casting can be thought of as a method for reproducing
something - whether a mere part or a single unit by itself.
Casting is a process that can be used to manufacture
complex parts which would prove too expensive or time-
consuming to produce using other methods such as cutting or
shaping these from solid materials.
