As detailed by Cast Technologies in their article “What Is Foundry Work,” the world of foundries is where molten metal, specialized tools, and skilled craftsmanship come together to shape the objects we rely on daily. Foundry work is essential to industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.
The history of foundry work dates back to 6000 BC in Mesopotamia, where early artisans used sand molds to shape copper and bronze. Over centuries, techniques evolved, leading to the innovation of new alloys and the ability to produce more intricate and durable objects. The Industrial Revolution significantly advanced foundry work with steam-powered machinery and improved furnace designs, while the 20th century introduced new materials like aluminum and technological tools like computer-aided design.
