    摘要: A counter gravity casting apparatus includes a reusable metal mold having a plurality of mold cavities, a feed tube configured to feed molten alloy into the mold, and a vacuum fitting configured to permit a vacuum to be applied to the mold. The mold includes multiple metal sections configured such that adjacent metal sections mate to one another, the metal sections being separable from one another. The metal sections include recesses that form the mold cavities, and the mold includes a sprue and multiple runner passages. The sprue is configured to receive molten alloy from the feed tube, and the multiple runner passages are configured to feed molten alloy from the sprue to the mold cavities. Methods of casting bulk amorphous alloy articles or feedstock is described.

    摘要: The present invention provides an integrally cast excavator bucket and a manufacturing method thereof. The integrally cast excavator bucket comprises a lifting lug, a top plate, two side plates and a bottom plate connected with the two side plates. A method for manufacturing the integrally cast excavator bucket by adopting the cast steel comprises the following steps: putting cast steel components into a melting furnace, and carrying out modification treatment before furnace after melting is finished; manufacturing models and a template, coating, heating, vacuumizing, placing sandboxes, adding sand, molding, carrying out mold closing, casting, quenching, tempering and cooling to room temperature to finish casting of the excavator bucket. The integrally cast excavator bucket is formed by once casting from a low-alloy steel material by adopting a vacuum sealing technology, and is high in product strength, resistant to wear and corrosion, high in impact resistance and long in service life.

    摘要: A method for making an equiaxed investment casting. The method utilizes an ultrasonic generator to send an ultrasonic pulse into molten metal in an investment casting mold. The investment casting mold is positioned within a working zone of furnace having low output induction coils for generating a convection current in molten metal. The ultrasonic pulse separates dendrites growing from the face of the mold inward into the molten metal. Instead, equiaxed grains can nucleate within the molten metal. In addition, the ultrasonic pulse and the low output induction coils circulate the molten metal as solute is rejected from solidifying equiaxed grains. The mixing reduces the effects of segregation in the solidifying alloy and assists in nucleating equiaxed grains.

    摘要: An aluminum alloy and a method of casting. At least one of zirconium, scandium, a nucleating agent selected from the group consisting of metal carbides, aluminides and borides, and rare earth elements are added to the alloy while in the molten state such that upon solidification, the cast alloy exhibits improved hot tear resistance. In a particular form, the nucleating agent may be titanium diboride for grain refining. Other agents that can be used for grain refining include scandium, zirconium, silicon, silver and one or more rare earth elements. In the case of rare earth elements, mischmetal may be used as a precursor. Combinations of titanium diboride and at least one other agent are especially effective in reducing the incidence of hot tearing in products cast from the modified aluminum alloy.
