Abstract |
In investment casting process, many casting defects are occurred due to poor design of part with respect to manufacturability. Some defects cannot be eliminated by changes to tooling and process parameters. Now a day casting defects can be predicted by casting simulation and corrected by modification to part design using casting DFM (design for manufacture) guidelines. The importance of DFM and casting simulation in casting design is well established in casting industry. Sometimes Casting part design is analyses with respect to junctions and corner in casting part. Casing junctions, intersections of two or more sections leading to mass concentration, are potential location of gas porosity and cold shuts. |
