High strength compacted graphite iron (CGI) or alloyed cast iron components are substituting previously used non-ferrous castings in automotive power train applications. The mechanical engineering industry has recognized the value in substituting forged or welded structures with stiff and light-weight cast iron castings. New products such as win...

Twenty years after the introduction of simulation software for foundries into the industry, casting process simulation has become an accepted tool for process and design lay-out. Casting process simulation always displays the status quo of its expert user. The user decides if the rigging system or process parameters lead to an acceptable res...

Innovations and modifications in the techniques of high pressure die casting or tooling are forced by trends in part design, part load as well as by costs and times for development and manufacturing processes. All current trends require continuous improvement in planning of part performance and production processes. The quality of parts and ...

Over many years, the liquid metal flow in steel continuous casting tundishes and molds, the cooling and solidification of the melt and the formation of segregation, as well as stresses and cracks, have been the subject of numerous projects in which the phenomena were analyzed by various measurement techniques, calculations and/or analytical or n...
