Casting Defects Training
Master every major casting defect — from shrinkage and porosity to hot tears and dimensional errors — and learn exactly how to prevent them. This course gives foundry professionals and quality engineers a complete, practical framework for diagnosing defects, applying root cause analysis, and implementing lasting process controls. Stop losing parts to scrap and rework.

What will I learn?
You will build a thorough understanding of how casting defects form, how to classify them accurately, and how to eliminate them through targeted process changes. The course covers solidification principles, mould and gating design, melt treatment, and non-destructive testing methods. You will apply root cause analysis tools including 8D, FMEA, and SPC to real casting problems. Dimensional inspection, tooling control, and casting simulation software are also addressed. By the end, you will have the technical knowledge to reduce scrap rates, improve part quality, and lead defect prevention initiatives in any foundry environment.
