Description of application of 3D printing technology in the foundry

The bachelor thesis deals with possibilities of using 3D printing in the field of production of foundry models, moulds and cores. It summarizes both the blending of 3D printing with conventional production methods and unconventional manufacturing methods. In the case of unconventional methods, the thesis also focuses on types of binder systems and kinematic settings of commonly used machines. On the basis of the acquired knowledge, a simplified 3D model of the machine for the production of foundry moulds and cores is created
