Which of the following methods is used for the cutting of directionally solidified rods or castings?(a) Thermal cutting(b) Electro-discharge machining(c) Water jet cutting(d) Weld cuttingI had been asked this question in an interview for job.I would like to ask this question from Directional Solidification topic in chapter Pattern and Mould, Principles of Gating & Risering of Casting-Forming-Welding I

Answer» CORRECT option is (b) Electro-discharge machining

Explanation: The directionally solidified castings are CUT transversely and longitudinally by the APPLICATION of electro-discharge machining. In this method, material is REMOVED from the work-piece by discharging of current between the electrodes, RESULTS in an electric voltage. This method is also known as spark machining.
