Centrifugal casting process - advantages and disadvantages


Centrifugal casting process

It is the method of producing
castings where molten metal is poured into a mould rapidly moving around a fixed axis. The molten metal come into contact with this rotating mould under a good amount of pressure because of the centrifugal force. This gives a better filling of mould. The casting grain density is also high. As a result the porosity is almost zero.

Diferent Parts of Sand Mold- Features

Cope and drag in Sand Mold : Cope and Drag are the two parts of the casting flask. Cope is the upper part and drag is the lower part. Even if the casting process is flaskless , the same terms are used for the upper ans lower parts. Generally the flask is made of wood or metal. It contains molding sand. When metal is poured into the mold cavity the flask supports the mold. Gating system:

Stress Strain Graph for Mild Steel explained

Stress: When any object of certain material is subjected to tensile or compressive or shear force, there may be a chance that its dimension will be affected. If the dimension of a material is changed due to application of forces we can say that the material is under stress or experiencing the state of stress. Stress is defined as the Force per unit cross section area. Stress = F/A Stress is
