Q. In precision investment casting, to make the mould the prepared pattern is dipped into a slurry. From which material is this slurry is made up of?
  • (A) ethyl silicate
  • (B) sodium silicate
  • (C) both ethyl and sodium silicate
  • (D) neither ethyl nor sodium silicate
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) both ethyl and sodium silicate

Explanation: the slurry in which prepared pattern is dipped into is made by suspending fine ceramic particles in ethyl silicate or sodium silicate.

Q. Another name of Gravity Die Casting is?
  • (A) centrifugal casting
  • (B) permanent mould casting
  • (C) precision investment casting
  • (D) hot chamber process
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (B) permanent mould casting

Explanation: since, metal enters the mould under gravity, hence permanent, mould casting is also known as gravity die casting.

Q. Which of the following is a limitation of die casting, but is overcome in vacuum die casting?
  • (A) the air left in the cavity when the die is closed
  • (B) the moisture left in the cavity when the die is closed
  • (C) the air left in the cavity when the die is open
  • (D) the moisture left in the cavity when the die is open
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (A) the air left in the cavity when the die is closed

Explanation: in die casting the major problem is the air left inside the cavity when the die is closed, but in the case of vacuum die casting this air is evacuated out.

Q. Which of the type of centrifugal casting methods is used to produce ‘non- symmetrical’ shaped castings?
  • (A) true centrifugal casting
  • (B) semi centrifugal casting
  • (C) centrifuging
  • (D) non centrifugal casting
πŸ’¬ Discuss
βœ… Correct Answer: (C) centrifuging

Explanation: more than a single object is connected radially through a central sprue in centrifuging. but the castings need not be symmetrical always, unlike other centrifugal casting processes.
