The casting process involves filling a prepared mould cavity with molten metal, which takes the shape of the container. While the liquid metal takes the shape of the container it is in, the method is attractive, while the volumetric changes during the liquid-solid transformation reveal the importance of moulding design for the manufacture of solid parts. Especially in cast irons, moulds with the same design may produce different results depending on the changing casting and foundry conditions because the volumetric change that occurs during the solidification of ductile cast irons is affected by many parameters and develops differently than in steel and aluminium castings. This study used model wet and resin molding materials to create single and double-riser moulding and castings with different section thicknesses. The importance of the type of mold material used in castings and the number of feeders for the robust production of the cast part was evaluated using experimental and modeling techniques. When the results were examined, it was seen that the shrinkage risk was lower with resin mould than with green sand moulding. In addition, depending on the riser connection point, the importance of the riser neck has emerged.
