Autonomous Optimization, Method Design of Casting and Its Experimental Validation: A Case Study
Abstract: The metal casting is a complicated but a mass production manufacturing technique. But on the otherhand, the chances of casting rejection are also more if proper attention is not made at every stage ofcasting production. In the metal casting process, higher yield and minimum defects level are expectedby the foundry industries. In the present global and competitive world metal casting industries needsto perform efficiently with a reduction in rejections. This …

Casting Through Simulation- A Review
Abstract: In today’s competitive environment every foundry industries requires minimum rejection of component; rejection is caused by undesired uncertainty found in component’s it can be shrinkage cavity, sand inclusion, cold shuts etc. Reduce defect probability we need better setup and proper process control parameters without shop floor trials. Therefore industries develops many software packages for simulation of casting process it shows the virtual view like mould filling, solidification, cooling meanwhile it …

INFLUENCE OF SULPHUR DIFFUSION ON THE SURFACE OF FURAN NO BAKE CASTING- A REVIEW
Abstract: Casting process is one of the most used processes in manufacturing industries. Furan no bake casting is a fast developing technology for foundry industries. Furan no bake casting process uses resins and acid catalyst to form a binder system. However this process produces castings with high strength and good surface finish. Hence this method is suitable for producing accurate dimensioned castings. This paper deals with effect of resin binder system …

Modification of Gating System in Casting Process Using Simulation Tool to Reduce Defects
Abstract: We all know that sand casting is one of the oldest methods used for accurate and precise manufacturing of parts and components. Foundry industry in our country is suffering from poor quality and productivity in sand casting due to involvement of number of process parameters. In past years, trial and error method was used to reduce defects in solidification. To find and eliminate defect and problem is very difficult task. …

Review of Sand Inclusion Defect Analysis to Initiate the Improvement in FNB Casting Process
Abstract: Sand inclusion is an important defect in grey cast iron castings. On an average, this defect accounts for 30 to 40% of the total number of defects arising in the foundries. Sand inclusion is undesirable since it ends up in reducing the strength of the castings and worsens the finish of the casting surface. Hundred or more parameters are responsible for sand inclusion defect and hence it is cumbersome and …
