Evaporative Pattern Casting Process
It is a type of casting process that uses a pattern made from amaterial that will evaporate when the molten metal is poured intothe molding cavity.
Most common evaporative pattern material Polystyrene foam
The two major evaporative-pattern casting processes are
1) Lost Foam Casting Uses unbounded sand,
2) Full Mold Casting Uses bounded sand,

History
H.F. Shroyer patented the foam patterns for metal casting onApril 15, 1958.
M.C. Flemming in 1964, used unbounded sand with the process. This is known today as lost foam casting (LFC).

Limitations:
Since every casting requires a new pattern, it is a costly processThere is a limitations on the minimum section thickness of the
patternQuality of the casting fully depends upon the quality of the
patternAs the sand is unbounded, during pouring, because of thedifference of the evaporation rate of the metal and flow rate ofthe metal, sand falls down in the cavity generated. Hence,defective casting.

Vacuum mould Casting
The Vacuum molding (V process) makes use of dry sand, plasticfilm and a negative vacuum pressure as a means for binding. To bind sand use vacuum 250 450 mm Hg Plastic film

Metal Mould Casting
Instead of using sand as the mold material, a metal is used as a mold.
Cast iron or Meehanite (a dense cast iron) is used as the mold materialand the cores are made from metal or sand. Cavity surfaces are coatedwith a thin layer of heat resistant material such as clay or sodium silicate
Common casting metals are aluminium, magnesium, and copper alloys.Other materials include tin, zinc, and lead alloys and iron and steel.

Continuous Casting
Molten metal solidifies into semifinished goods as billet,bloom or slab
In this process liquid metal will be stored in tundish & it will allowthrough a die.
The input to the die is a liquid metal & output is a solid crust on towhich water is spray to cool the material at the faster rate

Casting Parameter:
Casting temperatures depend on the alloy and the partgeometry. The starting point is normally 6 to 55 C above theliquidus temperature.
Tooling temperatures ranging from 190 to 315 C are normallyused
Pressure levels of 50 to 140 MPa are normally used
Lubrication For aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys, agood grade of colloidal graphite spray lubricant has provedsatisfactory when sprayed on the warm dies prior to casting

Advantages:
Offers a broader range of shapes and components than othermanufacturing methods
Little or no machining required post casting process
Low levels of porosity
Good surface texture
Fine micro-structures with higher strength components
No waste material, 100% utilization
-

30/42
Limitations & Disadvantages:
Costs are very high due to complex tooling
No flexibility as tooling is dedicated to specific components
Process needs to be accurately controlled which slows the cycle timedown and increases process costs.
High costs mean high production volumes are necessary to justifyequipment investment
Can be affected by premature chemical reaction, air entrapment andfailure to fill the cavity resulting in reject components.

Rapid Prototyping Technology
Rapid prototyping (RP) is a technology wherein the physical modeling
of a design is done using a specialized machining technology
Steps:
1. Creation of the CAD model of the (part) design2. Conversion of the CAD model into Standard Tessellation Language
(STL) format3. Slicing of the STL file into thin sections4. Building part layer by layer
5. Post processing/finishing/joining.

Application
1. It is mainly used in modeling, Product Design and Development,
2. Reverse Engineering applications,3. Short Production Runs and Rapid Tooling,4. In medical applications, RPT is used to make exact models
resembling the actual parts of a person, through computer scanneddata, which can be used to perform trial surgeries,
5. RP techniques are used to make custom-fit masks that reducescarring on burn victims,
6. Selective laser sintering (SLS) has been used to produce superiorsocket knees,
7. Very tiny, miniature parts can be made by electrochemicalfabrication,
8. In jewelry designs, crafts and arts .

Advantages:Process is independent of (workpice) feature
No blanks are required.
Toolless processEasily automation
Disadvantages:In view of high equipment cost, very few organizations can invest in
these new machines.
Currently, RPT is more limited to modeling, specimen making and
designing.The RPT is at present limited to making of paper and plastic type
products only.

Future developments:
As the Rapid Prototyping Technology gets further advanced, it can
lead to substantial reduction in build-up time for manufacturing. Further improvement in laser optics and motor control can improvethe accuracy.
The development of new materials and polymers so that they are less prone to curing and temperature induced warpages.
Much anticipated development is the introduction of non-polymericmaterials including metals, ceramics, composites and powder metallurgy.
Developments in ceramic composites can further increase the range ofrapid prototyping.
Currently, the size is also a restriction; capability for larger parts shall be expected in the near future.
