Pouring generally refers to the formation of a mixture of materials such as refractory castables and concrete casting. An inexpensive casting method where a sand and clay mixture is used as the vessel in which to pour your molten metal.

In the metal foundry, the gating system in casting is a metal pouring system that conducts molten metal into the mold cavity. Metal flows down from the pouring basin into the sprue and passes through the runner and gates before entering the mold cavity.

Matters needing attention
1. If the flow rate is too fast, there is a risk of corrosion while if the speed is too slow it can cause the metal to be cool before filling the chamber, which directly affects the quality of the casting.
2. The shape and size of the gating system in casting are properly arranged when making the mold. If the gating system is not designed properly, it can cause severe casting defects.
