The objectives of this course are to: provide students with the knowledge necessary to develop technical documentation of a production facility with regard to the current legislation; provide students with the knowledge necessary to design new, or to redesign existing, foundry on the basis of defined product portfolio, including the design of foundry tooling.

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to: summarize current legislation regarding planning and construction of new and reconstruction of existing production facilities; name and describe basic manufacturing departments in a foundry; describe melting equipment most commonly used in foundry industry; describe and define the means of internal transport and storage; describe the high pressure die casting process design; describe the procedures of casting and tool design for high pressure die casting technology; generate conceptual technological design of a foundry.

Current legislation. Project task. Project content. Foundry departments. Types of foundries. Basic instructions for foundry design. Melting and pouring department. Molding department. Molding sand preparation. Core manufacturing. Cleaning of castings. Internal transport in foundries. Storages. HVAC. Improving energy efficiency in foundries. Design of process, castings and tools for high pressure die casting technology. Examples of modern foundries.

Teaching is held interactively as lectures and laboratory practice. During lectures, the theoretical part of the teaching content is presented and supplemented by characteristic practical examples for better understanding. During lectures, discussion between students is frequently initiated in order to increase motivation, expand student understanding, broaden student perspectives and clarify potential ambiguities. During laboratory practice, the obtained knowledge is practically applied on the available laboratory equipment. During practice students are also working on their class project. Apart from lectures and practice, consultations are held regularly.
