Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a casting process to produce at least partly thin-walled aluminium castings by gravity casting and with sand moulding technology. Exemplary processes in this area are disclosed by JPS5731463 A and CN104014717 A .
  • the wall thickness of the thin-walled part is 1-3 mm.
  • a further subject of the invention is a sand mould and an inlet system (gating system), which will allow manufacturing cast parts of this nature.
  • sand moulding techniques have been applied for a long time.
  • the basic principle behind this technology is that a die cavity adjusted to the casting's geometry is made from suitable moulding sand. This cavity is then poured with molten aluminium according to the required temperature and other casting conditions. The moulding sand will then be removed from the solidified casting, which will be used for the specific purpose.
  • the sand moulding technology offers the benefit of producing the sand mould in a relatively simple way; its drawback, however, is that a new sand mould is needed for each casting procedure, which requires producing a sand mould for every single casting, thus the mould cannot be reused.
  • the method to be applied in producing thin-walled castings of large surfaces is the high-pressure die casting process, in which the molten metal is fed by means of a pressure casting machine in a short period of time (0.01-0.05 s) and at an extremely high flow rate (20-80 m/s in the conduit) into the cavity of the cooled (cooled in a cooling system to 150-250 °C) where during the solidification process extremely high pressure (500-1500 bar) is applied.
  • the casting machine and the casting mould are complex and costly, which makes them cost-effective only if large series of castings (several ten or hundred thousands, depending on the casting mass) are manufactured.
  • CN 1709612 Chinese patent description provides information on the process of manufacturing super-thin walled aluminium casts by means of high speed pressure. This process includes the following steps: a model casting mould is fitted into the die-casting machine then the parameters of die-casting are set. The casting pressure is 780 kg/cm 2 , the temperature of the model casting mould is set to 250°C, the dissolvent temperature is 700°C, then the alumina alloy is injected into the die-casting machine. In order to achieve smaller than 1.0 mm wall thickness, 0.23 m/sec injection speed is applied. This is followed by removing the cast, which will be tested if it fulfils the international patent requirements. A casting produced in this way can primarily be applied in 3C products, such as for computer frames, digital cameras and mobile phones.
  • the conventional sand moulding technology and the pressure technology greatly differ from each other.
  • the conventional sand moulding technology is a complicated procedure, consisting of several steps, compared to high-pressure casting, in which almost the complete manufacturing process is performed by machines in order to achieve high manufacturing series.
  • Modelling has two different methods. One of them is virtual modelling, which is made by most foundries applying pressure die casting. A program related to the given technical parameters models the casting process and highlights the expected difficulties of casting. This method offers the advantage of quickness, but its drawback is that it will not provide evidence of the behaviour of the mould in real operating conditions.
  • the other modelling process is sand casting, which means that the actual casting is produced by a sand casting foundry.
  • the casting produced with this method is like the original one as regards its geometry and structure.
  • the piece allows measurements, helps design the technology, and draws the attention to the technological demand (e.g. running and feeding systems, etc.)
  • a given product or casting has basic properties that determine the technology to be applied; these are as follows: expected annual product number, dimensions, raw material, geometry, weight, and prescribed mechanical properties.
  • test manufacture Once the customer has decided to employ test manufacture, he has the choice between two ways. One of them is to order the product with testing according to the final technology, which (concerning our case) is basically pressure die casting. The customer orders the pressure die and the casting technology, and waits for it to be prepared. Once the die has been produced, test casting is ordered, and providing it is based on a drawing or a model, the testing phase will be started.
  • This method is time consuming and costly, and includes a lot of uncertainties and risks on the customer's part until the test results meet the requirements.
  • the cast produced in this way will ensure safe and quick testing and assembly according to the customer's demand, provides possibility for the introduction to the market, provides low level of producing costs (related to the cost level of pressure die-casting technology); what is even more important, it ensures quick and cost-effective modification and execution of possible design faults.
  • This process allows the developer-customer to provide such safe products for mass production, which will not carry technical and design risks and can be adjusted to market competition as related to both quickness and cost efficiency.
  • the objective of developing the process applied in the invention is to establish such a casting process, which is suitable for producing articulated, thin-walled aluminium casts by means of gravity sand mould casting supposing 1-3 mm wall thickness and 200-400 times larger sizes are provided.
  • the method according to the present invention allows manufacturing larger sized castings as compared to the well-known process of gravity die casting.
  • the method according to the invention is suitable for manufacturing castings, which can be applied in practice.
  • the products are mainly indoor and outdoor luminaires, engine parts - spare parts, cylinder-heads, machine components, spare parts for mechanical and precision engineering, fittings, etc. All these products can be produced with the method according to the invention in such quality that they will be suited for practical application under operational conditions. This will result in cost-effective development and more effective testing before the manufacture on large scale starts. Aluminium castings for different purposes are to be produced with this method economically, on small to medium scale, even in several hundred items.
  • the method according to the invention enables manufacturing larger sized castings at a much lower cost - in contrast to pressure casting - which will appear in the initial die cost and production time.
  • the subject of the invention is a method according to claim 1 and a sand mould provided with a gating system according to claim 10.
  • such -at least partly- thin-walled aluminium castings can be produced by sand moulding technology and gravity casting, in which the wall thickness of one or more parts is 1-3 mm and the largest dimension is multiplied by 100 times, or even 200-400 times compared to the wall thickness.
  • the largest dimension means the largest linear dimension of the given part of a casting, i.e. the longest side of the smallest prism which can involve the given part of the cast.
  • FIG. 1a and 1b the inner structure of the sand mould (12) fitted with a gating system (10) is shown.
  • FIG 1a the outer edges of the sand mould are shown only as illustration around the inner formation in a perspective view.
  • the sand mould (12) includes an upper half (12a) and a bottom half (12b), which are joined in a parting plane (13) and these two parts form the mould cavity (16).
  • the mould cavity (16) is completely thin walled and provides casting (14) with 1-3 mm wall thickness, which is also separately shown in figure 1c .
  • the casting (14) is not separated from the complete cast (14'), which means that the solidified parts of the melt in the gating system (10) are joined to the casting (14), which can be separated, e.g. by cutting them off the cast (14').
  • the gating system (10) comprises two sprues (18), one runner (20) by each sprue (18) and five gates (22) with inlets (22) opening from each runner (20) into the mould cavity (16).
  • the runners (20) allow the liquid metal to run in the parting plane (13) of the upper and bottom halves (12a and 12b) or in its vicinity from the sprues (18) to the gates (22).
  • the fractioning and the segmented shaping of the runners (20) allow complete filling of the mould cavity (16) as well as reduces the formation of turbulence and foaming, and aids the formation of steady flow.
  • These runners (20) can be trapezoidal in various sizes; e.g. upper width 10 mm, bottom width 21 mm, height 17 mm.
  • Gates (22) are channels connecting the runners (20) and the mould cavity (16) with the aim of allowing the liquid metal to run into the mould cavity (16), controlling flow rate and eliminating the formation of turbulence and foaming. They may have various shapes; e.g. gate width 42 mm, gate height corresponding to the wall thickness of the casting, e.g. 2 mm; widening width and height towards the runners: e.g. 10 mm and e.g. 16 mm respectively.
  • the sprue (18) preferably comprises a sprue part (24), which is formed in the sand mould (12), and an attachment (26) fitted to it from the outside.
  • the upper part of the latter one is preferably formed as a pouring cup (28) to allow easier pouring of the melt into the sprue (18).
  • the gating system (10) is of narrowing cross section thus the flow cross section is getting narrower (including the possibility of a transitional increase) towards the inlets (22a). In this manner the flow rate of the melt will increase towards the inlets (22a) and will reach its highest rate at the inlets (22a).
  • This arrangement is in contrast to the conventional sand mould technology, in which gating systems of expanding cross sections are applied since slow and laminar flow will result in higher cast quality in case of thick walled castings.
  • a gating system (10) of narrowing cross section is any gating system, which ensures that the highest flow rate is at the inlets (22a) by narrowing the flow cross sections. For this reason at least the gates (22) are to be of narrowing cross section, i.e. the inner cross section of the gates (22) is narrowing towards the inlets (22a) and becomes the narrowest at the inlets (22a).
  • the flow rate is at least twice or more advantageously 3-5 times higher than the average flow rate in the runners (20), or than the average flow rate in the sprue part (24) of the sprues (18), when no runners (20) are applied.
  • both runners (20) have two branches respectively, starting at the sprues (18).
  • Attachments (26) also contribute to the increase of flow rate.
  • the gradient height between the upper port (i.e. the upper edge of the cup) of the sprue (18) and the parting plane (13) of the sand mould (12) is to be 0.3, preferably 0.6-1.3 times multiple of the largest dimension of the mould cavity (16).
  • vents (30) are also incorporated in the sand mould (12). Their task is to exhaust from the sand mould (12) the gases that are formed during casting as well as to exhaust air accumulated in front of the liquid metal. Preferably they have cylindrical shape. Their typical diameter is double the wall thickness of the cast (2-6 mm).
  • a cooling metal e.g. a cooling iron bar is embedded in the sand mould (12) at this region of the mould cavity (16) (not shown) This cooling iron bar will allow thick walled segments to solidify at an identical rate with the thin walled segments.
  • Known feeders can also be applied to feed the thick walled segments.
  • FIG 2 the inner layout of the sand mould (12) and gating system (10) is illustrated, which includes four sprues (18) and four runners (20). Five gates (22) belong to each runner (20) along the longer sides of the mould cavity (16), while along the shorter sides four gates (22) are joined to each runner (20).
  • the sand mould (12) has preferably 2-5 gates (22) at each runner (20) and the number and layout of the gates (22) and runners (20) is chosen such that each part of the sand mould (12) producing a thin-walled casting portion having a dimension of 100-1000 cm 2 is provided with at least one gate (22). This arrangement will enable the melt to fill in the whole mould cavity (16) before getting solidified.
  • the runners (20) can be dispensed with.
  • the gates (22) are directly connected to the bottom of the sprues (18).
  • a number of segmented runners (20) or branching runners (20) may be applied, or it is also possible to connect several sprues (18) to one single runner (20).
  • the sand mould (12) provided with the gating system (10) accroding to the invention can be applied in the following way.
  • sand mould (12) elements and cores can be applied to produce the sand mould (12) elements and cores. From moulding sand suitable for preheating the upper and bottom halves (12a, 12b) are produced, which will form the cavity corresponding to the casting (14).
  • the sand mould (12) is preferably a chemically bonded dry mould which can tolerate heating.
  • Cross section, height and width of the elements of the gating system (10) used to fill up the mould cavity (16) are always determined by the features and casting position of the casting (14).
  • the sand mould (12) is pre-heated at least in the thin walled regions of the casting up to 100°C, preferably up to 100-600°C, or even more preferably up to 300-500°C (or 0.5-0.8 times of the solidification temperature of the Aluminium alloy). Heating can be performed for example with gas flame.
  • the embedded cooling iron bars if there are any, are also heated until vapour precipitates and dries from their surface (the surface of the cooling iron bars must remain pure); then the surfaces of the mould cavity (16), the gates (22) and the runners (20) and sprue parts (24) are heated up again before the closing of the sand mould (12).
  • the Aluminium melt is produced by heating Aluminium (or Al alloy). Before being fed into the gating system (10), the melt is overheated by 100°C, advantageously at least by 200°C, more preferably by 200-350°C, which will further contribute to avoiding too early solidification.
  • the liquid metal (melt) is introduced through the gating system (10), according to the invention, into the mould cavity (16) of the preheated upper and bottom halves (12a, 12b).
  • the mould cavity (16) is filled with liquid metal by means of pouring ladles through the pouring cup (28) affixed to the attachment (26) of the sprue parts (24) of the upper mould half (12a), providing a uniform mould cavity filling.
  • Moulding sand and excess parts are removed from the solidified casting (14), after which the casting (14) can be applied according to its intended purpose.
  • the manufacturing tool is prepared based on a virtual model created by any generally used 3D design program or other suitable programs, which manufacturing tool enables the production of a negative of the part to be cast from sand. This is followed by segmenting the tool in accordance with the user's demand, and having regard to the shrinkage of the casting and moulding inclination. The next step is to determine the pouring position, which can be either vertical or horizontal, according to the geometry of the model, then the coring position of the possible cavities of the part will be given.
  • the required gates (22), sprues (18), vents (30), hidden feeders are designed, which will all be installed in the mould frame and be formed together with the upper and bottom halves (12a, 12b), this will allow producing identical parts by the casting process.
  • the manufacturing tool is then treated with mould remover and filled in with washed and sized, chemically bonded sand. During the filling up the designed cooling iron is moulded in the sand as well as the upper part of the core is made rigid with iron strands.
  • the upper and bottom halves (12a, 12b) are precisely joined by positioning devices, which are also included in the manufacturing tool.
  • Overflow preventers prevent flow-off occurring from the mould buckling on the parting plane, followed by the upper and bottom halves (12a, 12b) being treated, heated and closed. In certain cases attachments (26) are adhered to the upper half (12a) and balanced. After casting the melt is allowed to cool and then the cores will be carefully removed from the casting, which is then cut off from the gates and finely purified. This process is followed by checking the main dimensions and delivered to the supplier for inspection. After the complete casting (14) has been tested, small quantity production will be launched.
  • a direct economic benefit of the method according to the invention is that it allows manufacturing castings of almost identical properties related to the technical parameters, with low financial investment and during a fraction of time as compared to the production of large scale casts made by metal tool having high production cost.
  • the method according to the invention is suitable for producing castings which are otherwise expensive to produce even on large scale, which castings can be applied for practical purposes.
  • the products of this kind are mainly indoor and outdoor luminaires, engine parts - spare parts, cylinder-heads, machine components, spare parts for mechanical and precision engineering, fittings, etc. All these products can be produced with the method according to th invention in such quality that they will be suited for practical application under operational conditions. This will result in cost-effective development and more effective testing before the manufacture on large scale is launched. Aluminium castings for different purposes are to be produced with this process applied in the invention on small to medium scale, even in several hundred pieces.
