When producing partial denture using a Chrome-cobalt alloy being used universally, 45 pattern of them to compare casting characters according to 5 burying methods(special ring method, plastic ring method, general metal ring method) and 5 casting directions(straight, upper, lower, left and right directions) were compared and evaluated. The results were as follows : 1. The comparison of casting characters in accordance with burying type shows that the special ring method to install blind air vent using utility wax was the highest rate of 76.9%, followed by 69.1% of the plastic ring to cast without ring and 61.1% of the metal ring method being used universally respectively. Namely the special ring method was best. The significant level was P<0.05 statistically. 2. The comparison of casting character in accordance with casting directions shows that the straight casting was the highest of 77.9%, and followed by right casting of 74.2%, left casting of 66.7%, upper casting of 63.5%, and lower casting of 62.9% respectively, Namely the straight casting was best.

The defects of partial denture frameworks are mainly shrinkage porosity, inclusions, micro-crack, particles from investment, and dendritic structure. In order to investigate a good casting condition of partial denture frameworks, the three casting alloys and casting methods were used and detected casting defects were analyzed by using electrochemical methods. Three casting alloys (63Co-27Cr-5.5Mo, 63Ni-16Cr, 63Co-30Cr-5Mo) were prepared for fabricating partial denture frameworks with various casting methods; centrifugal casting (Kerr, USA), high frequency induction casting (Jelenko Eagle, USA), vacuum pressure casting (Bego, Germany). The casting temperature was $1,380^{\circ}C$ (63Co-27Cr-5.5Mo and 63Ni-16Cr) and $1,420^{\circ}C$ (63Co-30Cr-5Mo). The casting morphologies were analyzed using FE-SEM and EDX. The corrosion test of the dendritic structure was performed through potentiodynamic method in 0.9% NaCl solutions at $36.5^{\circ}C$ and corrosion surface was observed using SEM. The defects of partial denture frameworks improved in the order of centrifugal casting, high frequency induction casting, and vacuum pressure casting method, especially, pore defects were found at part of clasp in the case of centrifugal casting method. The structure of casting showed dendritic structure for three casting alloys. In the 63Co-27Cr-5.5Mo and 63Co-30Cr-5Mo, $\alpha$-Co and $\varepsilon$-Co phases were identified at matrix and $${\gamma}$-Ni_2$Cr second phase were shown in 63Ni-16Cr. Also, the corrosion resistance of cast structure increased in the order of vacuum pressure casting, high frequency induction casting, and centrifugal casting method.

In general, hot metal castings contract and molds expand during the cooling step of a casting process. Therefore, it is important to consider both the casting and mold at the same time in a casting process analysis. For a more accurate analysis that includes the contact characteristics, matching each node of the casting and mold in the contact area is recommended. However, it is very difficult to match the nodes of the casting and the mold when generating elements due to the geometric problem of CAD model data. The present study proposes a mesh generation technique that considers mechanical contact between the casting and the mold in a casting analysis (finite element analysis). The technique focuses on the fact that the mold surrounds the casting. After generating the 3D elements for the casting, the surface elements of the casting in contact with the mold are projected inside the mold to create contact elements that coincide with the contact surface of the casting. It was confirmed that high-quality contact element information and a 3D element net can be automatically generated by the method proposed in this study.

According as the density of prosthetic by casting among the prosthetic restorations is increasing now, the definition and the bounds as to the casting, the method of making the right casting and the establishment of concepts about a minute report and so on, the establishment of the basic principles like those are unavoidable, and then the casting shrinkage must be compensated by setting expansion thermal expansion. Hygroscopic expansion in making the good casting types as we demonstrated that already asbestos lining. We confirmed the fact that the considerable concern about the surface tension and the gas inspiration? Is necessary in making better the casting.

The simulated die casting process in which the traditional plaster casting process is combined with rapid prototyping technology is being used to produce Al, Mg and Zn die casting prototypes. Because of lower mechanical properties induced by the large grain structure and incomplete filling, conventional plaster casting is not suitable for the simulated die casting process. A plaster casting process with pressurized vibration was developed for the simulated die casting process[5]. In this paper, numerical simulation for the filling stage of the process has been performed to show the effect of the pressurized vibration for complete filling. Treatment of boundary condition based on the finite element method has been proposed for imparted pressurized vibration in the plaster casting process.

It is important not only to reduce the casting defects of piston but also to improvement in the mechanical properties(hardness) of piston for the air compressor. The blow hole is typical casting defects in the conventional cast of aluminium alloy(AC8A-T6) piston. Because of the heat treatment method, mechanical properties of the aluminium alloy for piston was decided on the heat treatment method and cycle. Therefore, we tested on the development of mechanical properties and on the casting defects of piston for the air compressor in accordance with the heat treatment and casting condition. After the heat treatment and casting was carried out as several times, and was compared with the imported piston. As a result of several investigations; microstructure, hardness and casting defects of piston was changed under the influence of the heat treatment and casting method. When the cooling rate was controlled and the uni-cast method used, it bas the same mechanical properties and microstructure.

An experimental study has been carried out to investigate casting process parameters which influence on the microstructures of cast preforms in casting/forging process of aluminum alloy. In the casting process, pouring temperature, pouring time, mold temperature, mold material, and, cooling method are selected as process parameters. With the cast preform, a forging test has been performed to compare mechanical properties of final products between casting/forging process and forging process. From the experimental results, low mold temperature and water cooling method are favorable for obtaining minute microstructures of cast preforms. Casting defects included in cast preforms. such as pores and shrinkage cavity, are eliminated by the forging process. And comparing cast/forged products with conventionally forged products, the former are almost as same as the latter in mechanical characteristics.

Casting process includes wax pattern, investment, dewaxing, curing, casting, etc., and each single process is important to achieve a good result. Since 2000, 3D printers have been developed and widely used; as more prefer UV Curavle resin method over wax method, resultant casting defects have become worse. To resolve such problem, preceding research revealed casting defects of existing wax method. In particular, defects of UV Curavle resin method showed difference in investment, dewaxing, deresinating and curing compared to the existing one. Accordingly, results were presented through casting tests; especially, a temperature rising curve only for UV Curavle resin was shown rather than one for the existing method. Lastly, this research classified those not available with direct casting and suggested mold manufacturing. This research is expected to be useful for 3D printer users or those who would conduct direct casting with UV Curavle resin.

Purpose: This study compares how accurately the specimen produced by the machining method and the rapid prototyping method is produced and how much dimensional error occurs with the finished casting body, and presents the results as experimental comparative data. Methods: Specimens produced using a digital processing method were cast by a conventional dental casting process, and dimensional changes of the finished casting body were measured to compare shrinkage and expansion. Results: In the control group that did not artificially induce large swelling, the dimensional error was the smallest, and the shrinkage and expansion reactions cannot be elimainated in all processes. Conclusion: The shrinkage and expansion depend on the given conditions, so if there is a change in the traditional dental casting process, it is necessary to adjust all the parameters to obtain an accurate casting body.

In this paper, the slab method have been applied to investigate the strip casting process in which hot coil is produced from molten steel directly. In the twin roll strip casting process, molten steel supplied by the nozzle cools and solidifies due to the heat extraction effect of the rolls and hot rolling of the solidified shell takes place simultaneously. The analysis of hot rolling has been carried out by using the existing results of solidification analysis for the twin roll strip casting process. The current slab method provides basic design data such as roll separation force, rolling torque, rolling power as well as end dam separation force which are required to design strip caster. The effect of friction on the basic process parameters are investigated also. It is shown that the use of appropriate friction coefficient is important and that the characteristics of hot rolling in the twin-roll strip casting process is quite different from the conventional hot rolling processes.
