Casting Process Design and Optimization of Large Plate Base
According to the structural characteristics of a large plate base iron casting, its casting process was designed and numerically simulated by using View-Cast software. The results show that there are a small amount of shrinkage holes and shrinkage defects at bottom of riser due to the effect of risers and cooling iron. Feeding is basically reasonable, but the process yield is low. With the riser changing into the insulated riser and decreasing its higher and number, this can decrease the defects of the casting and improve the process yield.
