Abstract
In a previous paper Dewhurst and Dale (1983) described a facility consisting of a suite of programs inmplemented on a popular microcomputer for simulating an automated non-ferrous sand casting foundry. The background to the approach, taken together with the results and conclusions from a series of experiments using this facility over a two year period, is now presented.Keywords
