    BRASS AND BRONZE CASTING (DOCRA CASTING)

    1. INTRODUCTION
    An alloy of copper and zinc is known as brass. The productionof copper and zinc
    varies in this alloy depending upon requirement of mechanical propertiesand
    enduseof the products. Normally 60% of the copper and 40% of the zinc variety is
    very common for castings.

    Copper alloy with tin is known as gun metal or tin bronze and has wide application in
    engineering, marine and automobile industry. Copper alloyed with aluminium is
    known asaluminium bronze. It is also extensively used in the industry where higher
    strengthof material is required. Brass and bronze are also very commony used
    inmanufacture of decorative items and hardware.

    2. MARKET
    Brass and bronze items have very good market potential. The demand for use ofbrass
    and bronze art ware for decoration purpose in the houses and offices hasincreased. It
    being service industry and it attracts a threat from pollution control board clearance
    for operating the unit. It is advised to start the unit outside thecity or town limits.

    3. MANUFACTURING PROCESS
    The process of casting involves melting of desired composition, preparation of mould
    cavity of sand, pouring the molten metalinto mould cavity, knocking the mould after
    solidification and cooling of the castings fitting and cleaning.
