The casting lab is intended to implement standard techniques of achieving as aluminum cast.
It is used for lab classes all along the curriculum in the department of mechanical engineering:
- M1: first year of the master
- M2: master for faculty training
The resources available in the laboratory are:
- shared resources: a furnace for melting aluminum, an oven, finally trimming devices.
- tooling for the manufacture of sand molds: pattern plates, frames, a device for sizing of the sand, a vibration compacting machine.
- shell casting tools: complete tooling, Diecasting, burners.
- rapid prototyping tool (lost wax casting): a resin printing device, chassis and a vacuum casting machine
