2. Characteristic defects in castings
Despite the various checks carried out at each stage of the casting process, defects can sometimes occur. The causes are generally fortuitous and their origins diverse. During the industrial production process, it is not always possible to constantly monitor the progress of each operation, and this can be the source of defects.
Preventive action is therefore taken to eliminate possible causes of defects. The quest for quality requires rigorous staff training. The drafting of simple procedures grouped together in a quality manual is a valuable aid. Internal audits ensure that these procedures are understood, accepted and applied by all personnel.
