The casting mold refers to the mold used to form the casting in the casting forming process. The casting molds are supporting the casting process, mainly including gravity casting molds, high-pressure casting molds (die-casting molds), low-pressure casting molds, and extrusion casting molds.

Casting mold is one of the most important process equipment in casting production, which has a great impact on the quality of castings. The improvement of casting mold technology will be of great significance to improve the quality of castings, develop new castings, and improve the level of near-net processing.

Advances in casting mold technology will provide more sophisticated, complex and high-quality castings for national pillar industries such as automobiles, electric power, ships, rail transportation, and aerospace, and promote the overall level of China's manufacturing industry.
