Metal casting company produces machinery spare part for manufactures. One of the product produced is dust filter. Most of palm oil mill used this product. Since it is used in most of palm oil mill, company often have problems to address this product. One of problem is the disordered of production process. It carried out by the job sequencing. The important job that should be solved first, least...

The ductile iron liquid metal is very reactive with environmental gases and solid molds after a nodulizing treatment. Mold-metal reactions could alter the spheroidal graphite shape to vermicular or flake. In this research, the metal-mold reactions were enhanced by various sulfur additions to the no-bake mold inserts to study these phenomena and to artificially produce layered dual-graphite stru...

Abstract: structures in alloys. This method is based on pouring the melt through a small sized nozzle into a mould located at acertain height under the crucible. This simple method generates globular structures without using equipments such asimpellers, electromagnetic stirrers, ultrasonic probes and cooling slopes. Therefore it is cost effective. In the presentstudy, the effect of casting size...

Cobalt-Chromium (Co-Cr) alloys have been widely used in dentistry for removable partial dentures, metal frames, and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. Because the alloys are strong, resistant to corrosion and relatively inexpensive compared to gold alloys and some all-ceramic materials. However, the fabrication processes for the alloys, such as casting, cutting and plastic works, are usually diff...

This chapter presents the use of the additive manufacturing (AM) method powderbinder-jetting (PBJ) for the generation of molds and cores for casting applications. Theoretical information on process steps and the binding of particles is given. For the based chemistry, examples are presented and the transfer from conventional produc‐ tion processes to powder-binder-jetting is explained. For sand ...

The importance of smooth mould filling in the foundry casting process has been recognized for a long time. More uniform the filling process is, the better the quality of the casting of the products produced. Successful computer simulations can help to reduce the number of trials and cut down the lead time in the design of new casting products by better understanding the complex mechanisms and i...

Composites based on two aluminium alloys (A536 and 6061) reinforced with 10% or 20% volume fraction of SiC particles were produced by gravity casting and a novel two-step mixing method was applied successfully to improve the wettability and distribution of the particles. The SiC particles were observed to be located predominantly in the interdendrit ic regions, and a thermal lag model is propos...
