![]() Real-time X-ray radiography revealed that the molten metal could exhibit tranquil, turbulent or chaotic flow into the mould during tilt casting, depending on (i) the angle of tilt of the mould at the start of casting, and (ii) the tilting speed. The filling of the mould was studied using realtime X-ray radiography. This investigation represents an attempt to investigate some fundamental problems associated with the process.Ī computer controlled, programmable roll-over casting wheel with a diameter of 1 m was used to produce sand castings in an Al-4.5% Cu alloy. Even so, the process is not often optimised in the industrial environment. It therefore has the potential to produce very high quality castings. ![]() Tilt casting is a process with the unique feature that, in principle, liquid metal can be transferred into a mould by simple mechanical means under the action of gravity, but without surface turbulence.
