摘要:
A casting method includes passing a metallic spacer through respective apertures in at least two ceramic cores (230, 232, 234, 236) to an installed condition wherein the spacer defines a minimum local separation between the at least two cores (230, 232, 234, 236). The spacer has a shank and at least one arm (310, 312, 314, 316, 318, 320) extending from the shank. A sacrificial pattern material is molded over the metallic spacer and the at least two ceramic cores (230, 232, 234, 236) and then shelled and fired. An alloy is cast in the shell. The shell is removed from the cast alloy.

A mold assembly (301) for use in forming a component (80) having an internal passage (82) defined therein includes a mold (300) defining a mold cavity (304) therein, and a deoxygenated core (310) positioned with respect to the mold. The deoxygenated core includes an inner wall (321) that at least partially defines a sealed core chamber (332) within the deoxygenated core. The sealed core chamber has a substantially reduced oxygen content, and a portion (315) of the deoxygenated core is positioned within the mold cavity such that the inner wall of the portion of the deoxygenated core defines the internal passage when the component is formed in the mold assembly.

A method of manufacturing precision cast parts for vehicle exhaust systems includes fabricating a model of a product to be manufactured using a substance selected from the group consisting of a wax and a plastic, forming a first coating layer on a surface of the model using a first slurry, forming a second coating layer on the surface of the model coated with the first coating layer using a second slurry, drying the first and second coating layers to form a mold and heating the mold to remove the model, pre-heating the mold, placing the mold in a ceramic box with a top portion open, and filling an inner part of the ceramic box with ceramic balls, and producing a product by injecting a molten metal into the mold to cast the product.

A casting mold (10) to cast a TiAl alloy includes a casting mold body (14) formed into a bottomed shape and provided with a cavity (12) into which a molten TiAl alloy is to be poured. The casting mold body (14) includes a reaction-resistant layer (16) provided on the cavity side, formed from a refractory material containing at least one of cerium oxide, yttrium oxide, and zirconium oxide, and configured to suppress a reaction with the molten TiAl alloy and a back-up layer (18) formed on the reaction-resistant layer (16). The back-up layer (18) includes a weakening layer (18a) formed from a refractory material including a silica material in a range from 80% by mass to 100% by mass inclusive, the silica material containing cristobalite in a range from 26% by mass to 34% by mass inclusive and the rest being fused silica, the weakening layer being designed to reduce casting mold strength and a shape-retention layer (18b) formed from a refractory material and designed to retain a casting mold shape.
摘要:
A green sand mold for producing a cast steel article, which is formed by casting sand comprising sand, a binder, and 3 parts or less by mass of a carbonaceous component per 100 parts by mass of sand, and provided with a coating layer of a thermosetting resin formed at least on a recess including a cavity for forming the cast steel article, the coating layer having average hardness (measured by a self-hardening hardness meter) of 50-95 and a thickness of 0.5-2.5 mm.
摘要:
A green sand mold comprising at least one pair of green sand mold parts each comprising a recess and a mating surface, wherein a cured layer comprising a thermosetting resin as a main component is formed on the recess and mating surface of each green sand mold part, and wherein the cured layer has hardness of 40-98, a thickness of 0.5-6 mm, and gas permeability of 70-150, is produced by applying a curing material comprising the thermosetting resin as a main component and having viscosity of 1-100 mPa·S to the recess and mating surface of each green sand mold part, combining the green sand mold parts, and then heat-hardening the curing material.
