Facilities
The E-Foundry Lab at IIT Bombay is housed in F4 shed (earlier Tin Smithy)
on the IDC-Hillside road. It has three types of facilities:

Computational: E-Foundry servers, 3D solid modelling, casting simulation,
finite element analysis, image processing and web development tools;

Experimental: 3D printing (plastic pattern), no-bake resin bonded molding,
sand and mold testing, induction and resistance melting, temperature data
acquisition, and water flow setups;

Mini-library: casting books, handbooks, dissertations and conference
proceedings, along with facilities for seminar, video conference, and
computer hands-on training.
