Mould pattern making is the process of creating a model used to form mould cavities for metal casting. The pattern is made from materials such as wood, metal, or plastic and is designed slightly larger than the final product to allow for shrinkage and machining. It helps produce accurate and quality castings in manufacturing industries. Common pattern types include single-piece, split, and match-plate patterns. Mould pattern making is important for producing machine parts, tools, pipes, and other engineering components efficiently.
