Olinto Gallo Workshops
{{Short description, Metal casting and engraving company Olinto Gallo Workshops was a metal casting and engraving company located in Rosario, province of Santa Fe, Argentina. It was founded by metalsmith Marcos Vanzo in 1888. Olinto Gallo, who would later rename the company, started working as an apprentice around 1910–1912 at the peak of the development of the art of medal engraving in Argentina marked by the centennial of the May Revolution. Gallo was the second of three children from an Italian family. In March 1920, Vanzo sold the company to his son Silvio and to Gallo, who renamed it Rosario's Engraving and Chiseling Workshop. It was based in the core of Rosario's downtown, at 936 Córdoba St. The owners eventually decided to separate the commercial site from the workshop: the offices were moved to 1328 Santa Fe St., still in the city center, while the workshop was relocated to 1055 Olivé St., in the Arroyito neighborhood. Gallo put his name on the company in 1934. " ...

Casting
Casting is a manufacturing process in which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a ''casting'', which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process. Casting materials are usually metals or various ''time setting'' materials that cure after mixing two or more components together; examples are epoxy, concrete, plaster and clay. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be otherwise difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods. Heavy equipment like machine tool beds, ships' propellers, etc. can be cast easily in the required size, rather than fabricating by joining several small pieces. Casting is a 7,000-year-old process. The oldest surviving casting is a copper frog from 3200 BC. History Throughout history, metal casting has been used to make tools, weapons, and religious objects. Metal casting history and de ...
