from raw casting to finished machine part, GUNT course: engineering drawing

Description:

• A bearing housing made from sand-cast aluminium is used in teaching as an example to illustrate the subject of cast parts in a detailed and practical way.
• TZ 200.02 comprises a raw casting of a bearing housing, manufactured and polished in a foundry, and a finished part of the same bearing housing, which has been machined after being cast.
• The machined part has also been prepared as a cutaway model.
• The two components can be used to describe the process from forming to machining.
• An ideal learning situation would be to allow two or three students to study the model set together.
