Answer» RIGHT option is (d) Pedestal or SWING FRAME grinding For explanation I would say: The casting surface after removal of gates contain some rough surfaces left at the time of removal of gates, or some fins and other projections on the surface NEAR the parting line. These rough cut gate edges can be smoothened by using either the pedestal or swing frame GRINDER depending on the size of the casting. |
