Summary:Foundry engineering can not only produce precise one-piece and complex parts, but can also conserve materials, which is why the industrial market is happy to adopt it. The most dangerous step in the foundry process is the pouring process. This article focuses on this pouring process, which may cause serious safety hazards, and employs Substance-Field Analysis and Contradiction Analysis from the Theory of Inventive Problem-Solving (TRIZ) to seek solutions and improved methods for lowering hazard potential, ensuring factory safety, raising productivity, and promoting workers' welfare.
