The effect of partial squeeze on the quality of casting products in the vacuum die casting was investigated to make defect free casting products with excellent mechanical properties. The partial squeeze and vacuum die casting process was industrially implemented in making reaction shaft support which was made of a hypereutectic Al-15%Si alloy. To combine squeezing and vacuum effects, the plunger injection system was designed and attached on the chill vent type vacuum machinery system. The combination of vacuum effect before injection and partial squeezing effect after injection resulted in defect free die casting products. The uniform distribution of fine eutectic and proeutectic Si obtained from trial process also provided excellent mechanical properties.

연속주조 프로세스는 고온의 액체 용강을 고체 금속으로 만드는 프로세스로서, 스트랜드 구동롤의 역할은 운전자가 설정한 주조 속도 제어 패턴에 따라 정확하게 주편을 인발하는 것이다. 기존의 스트랜드 구동롤의 제어는 주조 속도만을 제어하였으나 전동기 드라이버 세팅의 부정확성 및 변동, 연속적인 주조에 의한 구동롤의 마모 및 변형에 의한 롤 직경의 변경, 주조 중 주편 벌징량의 변동 등의 요인에 의해 주조 중 주편을 인발하는 데 소요되는 전체 인발력이 각 구동롤에 적절하게 분배되지 않아 주편 코너부에 수평 크랙을 발생시켜 주조 속도를 증가하는데 있어서 결정적인 장애요인이었다. 본 논문에서는 스트랜드 구동롤에 인가되는 인발력 분포와 주편 품질과의 상관 관계를 도출하고 주조 중에 연속적으로 인발력을 분배할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 인발력 분배 알고리즘은 각 구동롤 전동기의 절대적인 토크를 제어하는 것이 아니라, 상위제어기에서 결정한 인발력 분배 비율에 따라 각 구동롤 전동기의 토크분 전류를 상호 비교하여 속도 설정치를 조정함으로써 이루어진다. 그리고 인발력 분배 알고리즘의 동작 확인을 위해 광양제척소 1연주공장 4연주기에 적용하여 양호한 결과를 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 고유동 고강도 콘크리트의 현장타설에의 적용성 검토를 위해 거푸집의 측압검토를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 타설높이 및 타설속도를 주요변수로 정하여 실험체를 제작한 후, 수행한 실험으로부터 측압 및 온도변화를 측정하였다. 고유동 고강도 콘크리트의 최대 측압은 굳지 않은 콘크리트의 측압으로 나타났으며, 타설 직후 측압이 감소하기 시작하여 12시간 이후 안정화를 보였다. 3~4시간 이후 안정화가 나타나는 보통 콘크리트와 측압이 감소하는 경향은 유사하다. 타설속도가 빠를수록 최대 측압이 크게 발생하였으며, 시간의 경과에 따른 감소량은 거의 유사하였다. 또한 수화열과 측압감소 사이에 직접적인 연관성은 나타나지 않았다.

Magnesium alloys have high strength to weight ratio and are extremely attractive for applications in transport industry. Most of structural magnesium alloys are manufactured by die casting process. The tensile properties of AZ91HP magnesium alloy were investigated after die casting under various die casting conditions. After die casting by using cold chamber machine, the volume porosity of specimens was examined with density method. With the increase of the volume porosity of specimens, both the tensile strength and elongation were significantly decreased, however the 0.2% offset strength was almost independent of the amount of porosity. With the increase of crystal pressure from 500 to 900 bar during die casting, the volume porosity was decreased, which resulted in the increase of the tensile strength. The mould temperature within the range of $150{\sim}250^{\circ}C$ has not influenced the microstructure with the eutectic phase and tensile properties of specimens. The tensile strength was the highest at 90m/sec of gate speed.

For the lighting of vehicles structural casting components of aluminum casting alloys are substituted for those of steel or iron. For the manufacturing of large-scale premium quality aluminum castings the developments of a new casting process and a heat treatment process are necessary. The optimum casting design and heat treatment condition for large-scale castings are drawn with the help of Z-Cast software for the casting process analysis in this study. Low pressure sand casting method is applied successfully to produce air bag support components of D357 aluminum casting alloy.

Precision metal mold casting process is a casting method manufacturing mechanical elements with high precision, having heavy/light alloys as casting materials and using permanent mold. To improve dimensional accuracy and the final mechanical properties of the castings, the solidification speed and the cooling rate of the casting should be controlled with the optimum mold cooling system, and moreover, to obtain more accurate control of the whole process interfacial heat transfer characteristic at the mold/casting interface must be studied in advance. In the present study, aluminum alloy casting system with metal mold equipped with electrical heating elements and water cooling system was designed and the temperature histories at points inside the metal mold were measured during the casting process. The heat transfer phenomena at the mold/casting interface was characterized by the heat flux between solidifying casting metal and metal mold, and the heat flux history was obtained using inverse heat conduction method. The effect of mold cooling condition upon the heat flux profile was examined, and the analysis shows that the heat flux value has its maximum at the beginning of the process.

In order to manufacture precision parts which are used for IT and BT Industry by machining, users need higher speed & precision machining center. So, for development of this kind of machine, we designed gantry type machining center which is piling of 3 axes on one moving body and the 2-axis rotary table is fixed on the base. It is applied linear motor that is instead of ball-screw and servo-motor combination and 50,000 rpm high-speed spindle. Composite material structure called mineral casting or resin concrete is applied also. This paper presents design technology and evaluated results of high speed and precision machining center.

The purpose of this study is to develop a high-strength, high-toughness, thin-walled aluminum shock absorber housing product by applying a high vacuum die casting method to improve internal gas defect and formability. The analysis program dedicated for the casting was used because it was too costly and time-consuming to adopt the gating system design. The final casting plan was designed based on the flow pattern of the material filled into the mold and the result of air pressure and air pocket after the material was completely filled in the mold. Gaty shape was designed as a split type. The runner was designed to have the same shape as the initial inlet curve of the cavity, and the flow of the molten metal was prevented from turbulent flow. The most favorable results were obtained when the injection speed was $V_2=4.0m/s$. Defects on pores were reduced by applying high vacuum level inside the mold.

In twin roll strip casting process, coupled analyses of heat transfer and deformation for the cast roll are carried out by using the finite element program MARC to examine the thermal crown. Shrink fit effect and plastic deformation are considered. The results shows that the thermal crown is greatly influenced by shrink ft and that the thermal crown for POSCO Pilot Caster 2 Copper Roll has “M” shape. The effects of several factors on thermal crown are also investigated. The amount of thermal crown increases as heat flux, casting speed, steeve thickness and casting roll width increase and decreases as the casting roll diameter increases.

The casting roll design is one of the most important requirements in twin roll strip casting process. Coupled analyses of heat transfer and deformation for the cast roll are carried out by use of the finite element program MARC to examine the thermal stress and deformation. The effects of several factors on thermal stress and deformation are also investigated. The amount of thermal stress increases when the ni thickness increases and when the casting speed and the copper sleeve thickness decrease.
