The visual testing of castings typically includes dimensional measurements and the evaluation
of surface roughness and surface discontinuities.
By the end of this course, you will be able to
• Understand how casting surfaces and discontinuities are compared to photographs and
solid replicas
• Know the differences between comparators for the same type of surface irregularity
• Understand how the casting process affects the quality of a casting
• Understand the relationship between a quality level and the required comparators
