Optimization of Process Parameters of Green Sand Casting in Small Scale Foundry

Abstract

In this research work present the design of experiment based approach which is adopted to obtain an optimal setting of moisture content, grain particle size and temperature of pouring metal related parameters of green sand casting in SUSHA FOUNDERS AND ENGINEERS at G.I.D.C PANDESARA, SURAT. The casting parameters identified for green sand casting process are moisture content, green strength, mould hardness, permeability, sand particle size, pouring temperature ramming pressure, cooling time. For defect analysis, the possible causes are grouped into design, material and process parameters. The effect of suspected cause parameters on casting quality is ascertained through simulation. Based on the results and their interpretation, the optimal values of the parameters are determined to eliminate the defects.
