INTRODUCTION
Parts that have been separated from their feed system will be reworked either before or after shot-blasting, to remove any appendages or protrusions of material. Depending on the cross-section or thickness of material to be removed, and the type of alloy considered, different technologies will be used. The finished part then undergoes a certain number of checks (articles and "Foundry inspection") to check its conformity with customer specifications.
Finally, parts that have been declared good will be packaged before shipment.
The complete study of the subject includes the articles :
— - Foundry completion. Pickling. Shot blasting;
— - Foundry completion. Deburring. Finishing.
