The Difference

Bronze especially tin bronze is mostly used as material of traditional music instrument such as gamelan, cymbals, or bells. Casting process becomes an important process in making gamelan. Solidification is the most important process in the casting. This study is designed to evaluate variant of solidification rate on casting process of conventional bronze (tin bronze) as gamelan material. This study aimed at finding variant of Dendrite Arm Spacing (DAS) on acoustical characteristic of bronze alloy. The alloy of Cu–20Sn is chosen as the composition of tin-bronze because this composition is widely used as the gamelan material. Variant of solidification rate is designed by varying mold temperature and casting temperature. The bronze is melted in crucible furnace until 1050, 1100, 1100oC. Then, the melted material was poured into the mold in 400°C temperature. This study showed that increase of casting temperature influence the decrease of solidification rate which affecting the longer time of solidification. The difference of solidification rate affected on the construction of micro structure and the dendrite (DAS) formed. The size of the dendrite forms affected the mechanical and acustical tin bronze.

This study was designed to determine the effect of the solidification rate on the acoustic properties of the bronze alloy of 20% wt. Sn. Copper and commercially pure tin is melted in a furnace to a temperature 1000, 1100 and 12000C. The melted metal is poured into molds variation temperature of 200, 300 and 4000C. Materials castings were cut and machined for specimen damping capacity test. The results showed that the reduction in mold temperature leads to an increase solidification rate, which causes the shortness of the solidification time. The variation of the solidification rate affects on the morphology of the microstructure and acoustical properties of the material. By increasing the solidification rate influence on the secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) decreases. It causes the material hardness increases and the damping capacity of material decreases. There is a significant correlation between the material hardness and the damping capacity of materials.

This experiment investigated the cooling curve behavior, hardness and microstructure of two aluminum alloys produced by casting process. There are Al-1.37Zn-1.19Si and Al-1.66Si-1.35Zn derived from melting and alloying a pure aluminum with ADC12 (Al-Si) ingot. Cooling curve recorded from both those two alloys with pouring temperature at 710 oC and the mold temperature kept constant at 220 oC. The result shows, a freezing range of Al-1.37Zn-1.19Si alloy is 643–348 oC and Al-1.66Si-1.35Zn alloy is 621–401 oC. Then cooling rate obtained for Al-1.37Zn-1.19Si is 55.56 oC/S, and Al-1.66Si-1.35Zn is 30.09 oC/S. TThe higher hardness is 40.42 BHN at Al 1.66 Si-1.35Zn, while the lower value is 34.62 BHN on Al-1,37Zn-1,19Si alloy. The hardness value found higher when cooling rate is shorted. The number of silicon present on microstructure is highest in Al-1.37Zn-1.19Si alloy but the hardness value decreases. This is caused by the distribution of the silicon content in the alloy is irregular. It was found that the solidification rate had an effect on hardness, where the freezing rate obtained a high hardness value.

Low Efficiency

Traditional casting process optimization usually adopts empirical trial and error method. Process parameters were modified repeatedly within a certain range until a satisfactory solution is obtained, which is costly and inefficient. Therefore, based on integrated computational materials engineering, Magnesium Alloy Simulation Integrated Platform (MASIP) was constructed. MASIP completed the automatic operation of the entire simulation process from the CAD model data input to the process-microstructure-performance. It realized the rapid optimization simulation prediction of process-microstructure-performance, and solved the problems of long cycle and low efficiency of traditional process optimization. This paper studied the low-pressure casting optimization process of magnesium alloy thin-walled cylindrical parts based on MASIP. The calculation took casting temperature, mold temperature and holding pressure as the optimized variables, and the yield strength of the casting as the target variable. The experimental results showed that MASIP can fairly complete the structure simulation and performance prediction of castings, greatly reduce the time cost of the calculation process, and improve the efficiency of process optimization.

One of the main reasons for the scrap of cast thin-wall frame aluminum alloy castings is deformation and cracking. It is an effective method for solving the problem by predicting the distribution of casting stress, clarifying the size of the deformation and the location of the crack, and taking necessary measures in the process. This paper uses the ProCAST software to simulate the thermal stress coupling of A356 thin-walled frame castings, analyzes the influence of pouring temperature, pouring speed and mold temperature on the stress field distribution of castings, predicts the hot cracking trend and deformation, and optimizes Casting process..

AbstractPlasma-sprayed cast iron splats were deposited onto polished aluminum substrates preheated to different temperatures ranging from 25°C to 250°C. The morphology of single splat was observed by a field emission scanning electron microscope. Quantitative characterization methods, including fractal dimension (FD) and circularity analyses of the splat profile, were employed to identify the difference in morphology of the splats with the change of the substrate temperature. The results showed that the substrate temperature has a significant effect on the spreading of molten droplets and the morphology of resultant splats through changing the solidification rate of the droplets. With the increment of substrate temperature, the homogeneous and sufficient spreading of the droplets resulted from low solidification rate reduces the splashing of the droplets. In addition, the evaporation of adsorbed moisture on the substrate improves the wettability between the spreading droplet and the substrate, then benefits the homogeneous spreading of the molten droplet. As a result, a distinct decline in the FD value was observed. It was also suggested that the FD analysis could be used to characterize the morphology of the splat more effectively while the circularity method was heavily dependent on the area of the splat.

Inhomogeneous Properties

Permanent mold casting is a well-established route for casting large magnesium alloys components. Casting parameters like superheat, mold temperature, and holding time can often result in inhomogeneous properties, porosity, and segregation problems in the cast part. In order to optimize the casting process, control of the casting parameters including mold temperatures and holding times is essential to promote directional solidification, and ensure defect free homogenous structure. Binary Mg-9wt.%Al and Mg-10wt.%Gd alloys were used to investigate the effect of casting parameters such as melt temperature and holding time on the part macro and microstructure.

7075 Alloy

A new coupling stirring technology was proposed and used to prepare direct chill (DC) ingots. Ingots of 7075 alloy were produced by a process of normal direct chill (NDC) casting and coupling-stirring direct chill (CDC) casting, respectively. The effect of the technology on the microstructures, composition segregation and mechanical properties of the ingots was investigated. The results showed that the temperature variation in the CDC casting process was more uniform than that in the NDC casting process. The grain of the CDC ingots was finer and more spherical than the grain of NDC ingots. The grain size at the edge, 1/2 radius, and center position in CDC ingot decrease by 28%, 22%, and 24% comparing with the grain size of the corresponding positions of NDC ingot, respectively. The billets with higher performance and lower macro-segregation were obtained in case of CDC. The flow stresses and the difference in different positions of DC ingots measured at Gleeble-1500D thermo-mechanical simulator decreased obviously when the coupling stirring technology is used in the casting process.
