Continuous casting is a pivotal process in modern metallurgy, whereby molten metal is solidified into semi-finished slabs or billets through a continuous operation. The process encompasses complex ...

casting is a very complicated process. The most important part is the rate at which a casting cools down. Many properties of the casting are affected by this rate, which eventually determines the ...

Advances in production technology and materials science, particularly for new types of high-tech steel, mean that an old concept called “twin-roll” is being taken up successfully. An alternative ...

In conventional low-pressure casting, molten aluminum flows from the center and spreads by gravity. The improved method, ...

During eutectic solidification, a mixture of two or more solids self-assemble, forming composite microstructures ranging from ...

GM Powertrain has been applying CAE methods to casting and machining process design for over 10 years, and currently has approximately 20 manufacturing engineers doing analysis work full time. This ...

Sheffield Forgemasters of the UK has announced the successful conclusion of casting trials of a pioneering hollow steel ingot, which could help the company capitalise on key power generation sectors, ...
