Simulation and Analysis to Reduce the Shrinkage Defect in Sand Casting for the Rotor: A Review
Abstract: Casting is a process in which the metal is melted and poured into mold and allows it to solidify to get desired shape. Objective of investigation is to review on simulation and analysis to reduce the shrinkage defect in sand casting. In ductile iron casting, shrinkage defect is common. It is generally seen at the last solidifying area of casting. Other parameters like getting system, feeder, metallurgy of material, part …

Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Thin Wall Ductile Iron
Abstract: Currently many cast parts are produced in aluminum rather than cast iron, because of the drive to get high strength /weight ratio for application in automobile and aerospace. Ductile Iron casting of approximately 2-3mm section thickness better known as Thin wall ductile iron (TWDI) having high strength /weight ratio and better mechanical properties than Aluminum alloys. The effect of various parameters like, post inoculation, gating and feeding, moulding sand mix …
