press
on this Link: All
Processes
2.] The Most
Popular Casting Processes are below:
1. Die
Cast for
very high out put casting production, with exact consistency, long duration runs;
Die casting is an efficient, economical
process offering a broader range of shapes and components than any other
manufacturing technique. Parts have long service life and may be designed to
complement the visual appeal of the surrounding part. Designers can gain a
number of advantages and benefits by specifying die cast parts.
2. Flask-Less
Molding is
like automated
sand casting, for high volume, long run casting projects;
this process delivers the
true economies of automatically mass produced sand castings, namely greater
productivity, lower cost and higher quality castings
3. Green
Sand Casting like
sand casting, most economical, most used casting
process; the
alloys used most in Green Sand / Sand Castings, are aluminum, brass/bronze, and
iron / steel / ferrous products. The
term "green" denotes the presence of moisture in the molding sand, and
indicates that the mold is not baked or dried.
4. Sand
Casting - like
Green Sand Casting
/ most
economical, most used casting process
5. Investment
Casting for
almost as cast, great consistency, high volume, great detail, applications; intricate
shapes can be made with high accuracy. In addition, metals that are hard to
machine or fabricate are good candidates for this process.
6. Permanent
Molding -
instead of sand, this process uses a reusable metal pattern; so in medium to
high volume jobs this will equal lower piece part production cost;
products have better tensile strength and elongation than sand castings; Mass
productions can be done is a single production run, which reduces the
manufacturing cost
7. Powdered
Metal -
Powder metal parts
are not shape sensitive; near
net shape production uses more than 97% of the starting raw material; Powder
metal is an energy and material saving process; Intricate
shapes are less expensively produced by powder metallurgy compared to machining
from stock or billet
8. V-Process
Casting - is
known for the high dimensional tolerances and good surface finish of the
castings. Due to multiplicity of operations it is suitable for low to medium
production volumes, depending on the amount of conveyor-ized equipment within
the foundry.
Because the sand never touches the pattern itself, there is almost
no pattern wear. Minimal or zero draft allowance can be used on vertical
surfaces.
