What is the definition of foundry technology?
Foundry is a technology of casting metals into shapes by melting them into a liquid, pouring the metal in a mold, and removing the mold material or casting after the metal has solidified as it cools.
What is electrode function in mold design?
An electrode is used by the EDM (electro discharge machine) in actually fabricating the injection mold. An EDM uses either carbon (like pencil lead) or other material to burn the part shape into the mold. It's not part of the mold per se but used to make it.
What is the process of mold?
The process of molding is shaping liquid or pliable raw material using a rigid frame called a mold or matrix.[1] This itself may have been made using a pattern or model of the final object.
What is meant by gravity die casting?
Casting is a manufacturing process by which a molten material such as metal or plastic is introduced into a mold, allowed to solidify within the mold, and then ejected or broken out to make a fabricated part. Casting is used for making parts of complex shape that would be difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods, such as cutting from solid material. Die Casting, (outside the USA is also known as Permanent Mold Casting) , is a process in which the molten material is forced into a steel mold or die casting die. This process is usually accomplished by using high pressure injection systems. Permanent molding in the USA, is another form of gravity casting using an iron mold. Gravity Die Casting uses the force of gravity, instead of high pressure means, to fill a permanent mold, or die, with molten material.
How do you repair mdf?
mdf is a manufactured wood material
Is mdf wood hamster friendly?
Not at all. MDF is a man made material from hard and soft woods. There is wax and resin in MDF, both of which could prove fatal to a hamster.
What does MDF stand for fine art wood?
MDF stands for "medium-density fiberboard. Typically, MDF is the primary material of choice for many furniture manufacturers because of its low cost and availability.

Can medium density fiberboard be used as a shelf?
Yes, MDF is suitable for most kinds of shelving.
Is MDF suitable for raised panel cabinet doors?
If the door will be painted, an MDF panel is a good option. MDF is stable (it will not warp) and also tends to be lower in price than a solid wood or veneer panel. For a cabinet door that will be stained, a wood or veneer panel should be used rather than MDF.
Are bookcases made of MDF considered wood bookcases?
Yes, bookcases made of MDF (medium-density fiberboard) are considered wooden bookcases. MDF is an engineered wood product made from wood fibers and resin bonded together under heat and pressure. While it is not solid wood, it is still categorized as a type of wood material.
What is the best material for entertainment center cabinets?
The best material for entertainment center cabinets is MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) The MDF is easy to saw, mill, paint and handle. It is a very solid material sou it will not easily cause vibrations, if you turn the volume of your entertainment centre high.
Is MDF material strong?
MDF is not as strong as plywood, or as strong as a hardwood, but it is stronger than low density fibreboard or softboard. It can be as strong as some softwoods, but because it has no grain, it will not have the strength this gives in two dimensions. It has the advantage of being a very consistent material.
Is MDF made from hardwood or softwood?
Short answer; It depends where the MDF comes from. Long answer: First of all there are different grades of MDF. Most are listed by the density. This density is from the cubic weight of the board not the species. MDF is made from either hardwood or softwood depending on where in the world the MDF is produced. Most MDF is made from the scrapes of wood from dimensional lumber mills or waste recycled wood from demolition projects. Most dimensional lumber is made from fir and southern yellow pine. So MDF mills mix both species if the raw material gets limited. In the United States most MDF mills are in rural areas near large tracts of forests so what ever the native species of wood is what makes up the MDF. In the North east hardwoods are used. Maple, Oak and cherry are the primary raw material. In the mid Atlantic region there is a mixing of species. Primarily in Pennsylvania, New York and Virgina the raw material is hardwood but most mills are using up to 20% pine softwood in their MDF. In the majority of the MDF mills in the south use southern yellow pine due to the abundance of the raw material. The northern and western United States as well as most of Canadian MDF mills use a mix of southern yellow pine and fir. Some mills in the Midwest and west coast have begun making MDF out of straw.
Is MDF hard or soft?
The answer is relative. Most natural woods are tested for hardness on the Janka Scale to see if it is suitable for flooring. MDF is not typically used for that purpose and density of MDF can vary by manufacturer e.g. ultra-lite MDF. Based upon some anecdotal information it is not as hard as Maple but harder than Oak or Cherry. To know for sure you will have to apply the Janka test to the sample you intend to use to quantify the hardness.
