The Importance of the Geometry of the Down Sprue in the Gravity Casting Process

Abstract: This article presents the results of experiments on the optimization of down sprue geometry in the process of pouring sand molds. Theoretical assumptions and computer simulation tests are presented. The starting point was the theory and experience of gas entrapment caused mainly by a poorly designed gating system and the down sprue. Simulations were performed using Magmasoft software. First, initial studies were carried out to determine how the geometry (mainly the channel cross-section) of the sprue affects t… Show more
