Casting
engineers produce castings of almost any design and complexity, achieve high quality, and
meet performance and cost targets by insuring that castability is considered
in the basic design.
Designing for castability insures that
sound castings are consistently produced and production costs are minimized.
The foundry engineer plans how the
casting will be produced in the mold considering -- |
- A review of the hinge and bearing components identified four
castability design issues
-- Coring versus Machining
-- Reducing Hot Spots
-- Runners and Ingates
-- Riser Size and Positioning
