SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING BUCKET

A method of manufacturing a bucket by casting includes determining a volumetric capacity of the bucket. A modular mold assembly is configured by selecting a cope box and a drag box from multiple copeboxes and drag boxes based on the volumetric capacity of the bucket. Further, a first core is selected from multiple first cores based on the volumetric capacity of the bucket. The cope box, the firstcore, a second core, and the drag box are assembled such that the cope box, the first core, the second core, and the drag box together define a bucket-shaped mold cavity. A volume of the mold cavitydepends on the selection of the cope box, the first core, and the drag box. A molten material is poured in the mold cavity and the cast bucket is removed after solidification of the molten material from the modular mold assembly. 种通过铸造来制造铲斗的方法包括确定铲斗的体积容量。通过基于铲斗的体积容量从多个上模箱和下模箱中选择上模箱和下模箱，对模块化模具组件进行配置。此外，基于铲斗的体积容量从多个第型芯中选择第型芯。对上模箱、第型芯、第二型芯和下模箱进行组装，使得上模箱、第型芯、第二型芯和下模箱起限定出铲斗形模腔。模腔的体积取决于上模箱、第型芯和下模箱的选择。将熔融材料倒入模腔中，并且在熔融材料凝固之后从模块化模具组
