d) Rate of pouring:3
Easy to manufacture.
Lower tooling cost.
Lower energy requirement.
Implying faster development.
Minimal rejections.
Minimum diameter.
Aspect ratio.
Features:
Where nf is the number of features (holes,
pockets, slots, bosses, ribs, etc.)
Castability also depends upon melting point of
metals.
Melting practices have direct effect on quality of
castings. Factors that effect melting are
1.Fluxes,which are inorganic compounds added to
molten metal to remove dissolved gases.
2.Type of furnace used
3.Foundary operations that is
a)
Pattern
b)
Mold making
c)Pouring of melt
d)
Removal of cast items from molds.
For casting ceramics slip casting type is used where
the slurry of ceramics is poured to a cavity and
allowed to solidify to get required shape and after it
again heated to increase the hardness.
