Learn the Sand Casting Basics!

In this safety and introductory course, you will gain hands-on experience with sand casting and learn how to operate the Rohde ME 65/13 and ME 20/13 chamber furnaces.

The sand casting process can be combined with various MakerSpace machines, such as 3D printers, laser cutters, and CNC milling machines, to create high-quality moulds ranging from simple to complex designs.

During the course, you will independently create a sand mould and cast a (useful) aluminium workpiece, which you can take home at the end.

 

This course is a prerequisite for independently using the machines in MakerSpace!
