Shell mold casting or shell molding is a metal casting process in manufacturing industry in which the mold is a thin hardened shell of sand and thermosetting resin binder, backed up by some other material. Shell molding was developed as a manufacturing process during the mid-20th century in Germany.

Sand is coated with a phenolic novolac resin along with a hexamethylene tetramine (hexa) cross-linker and other additives specific to the core or mold making process. The Shell Method or "Croning process" was invented by Dr. Johannes Croning in Hamburg, Germany in 1944. This process is the oldest core and mold making technology that ...

Remakes are usually kept to a minimum with impression coating approximately at 0.3 mm thick. This means that the resulting shell is 0.6 mm tighter than the impression. The waxed impression is invested in hydrocolloid (gel) which solidifies at room temperature forming an accurate cast for the shell.

Shell molding, also known as shell-mold casting, [1] is an expendable mold casting process that uses resin covered sand to form the mold. As compared to sand casting, this process has better dimensional accuracy, a higher productivity rate, and lower labour requirements. It is used for small to medium parts that require high precision.

Sandblasting helps make sure the surface of a project is clean, too, so no particles create an uneven surface or problems with adherence. It clears away paint, rust, dust, and dirt before the rest of the process even starts. Skipping this step means the new coating can peel more easily, which means the project will need to be redone.

STEP 1 THE SHELL MOLDING PROCESS Before shell casting can begin, the shell mold must be created first. First, a two-piece metal pattern, typically made from iron, is created in the shape of the desired part. Each half is inserted into the shell core machine and heated to 400° F. Meanwhile, resin-coated sand is poured into the machine.

Ceramic Shell Casting Process The ceramic shell casting process starts with wax injection. A die, or tool, is filled with wax, injected in a liquid or a paste form, so it flows into the detail of the mold. Once cooled, the wax piece, or pattern, is removed from the die. Several wax patterns are attached to a wax pole, or sprue.

Linseed core oil, the traditional core binder, is set with a hot curing process. In the shell process, the foundry does not need to do chemistry: sand comes premixed or coated from the distributer and the chemicals in the sand cause it to create a hard shell when baked.
