    COMPONENT DESIGN CASTING DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

    Introduction:To concern in this chapter is with achieving economy in the design of castings produced
    by the sand moulding procedure and the area of interest is cores. The object will be to
    so arrange the design shape of the casting as to keep the need for these special sand
    cores to a minimum, or, ideally, to eliminate the need for any sand cores.
    In order to recognize casting shapes that require the use of special sand cores, some
    knowledge of sand moulding procedure is required by the designer. To provide this
    knowledge simple two part, sand moulding is described and should prove sufficient for
    an understanding of this aspect of casting design.

    The Pattern
    Figure shows a cast iron pulley, to be produced from a casting and machined all over.
    The first operation is to make the pattern which could be of wood or metal, a single
    pattern or multiple patterns mounted on plate construction of the pattern must take
    account of
    a.
    b.
    c.
    d.

    The mould parting line


    Machined surfaces
    Shrinkage of the material
    Draft or draw (to facilitate extraction from the mould)

    Accepting that the parting line for the pulley is the vertical center line (from figure) the
    pattern is shown, diagrammatically, in figure the area between the pattern, chain-dotted,
    and the casting size, dotted, is the allowance for shrinkage. The area between the
    dotted lines and the full lines is the allowance for machining.
    The angled sides draft appear only on surfaces normal (at right angles) to the
    parting line.

    The Parting line:-

    Several considerations are involved in deciding the parting line, the position , the pattern
    will be in the mould. For example, length of pattern in relation to width / breadth; the size
    of boxes available at time of casting; the pouring and venting points. Decisions
    regarding these are the prerogative of the foundry and pattern making exoerts. For the
    cast iron bush shown in figure there are three possible parting lines.
    First accept that the machining allowances is 3 mm therefore the casting length is 146
    mm, outside diameter is 106 mm and the hole is 64 mm.
    Figure shows the bush moulded in the vertical positions with the parting line central half
    in the top boxm half in the bottom box so that with the draft suitably provided on the
    outside diameter and the hole, the top box can be lifted, and then the pattern extracted,
    without disturbing the moulded sand. In figure the bush is moulded all in the bottom box,
    the top box merely closes the mould, and also carries the runner and riser.
    Figure shows the bush placed horizontal, and in order to achieve the hole feature, a
    special sand core is needed. This special sand core needs to be suitably located in the
    mould and for this purpose extensions are incorporated in the pattern core prints
    which are shown chain-dotted in figure
    Manufacture of the sand core involves the use of special sand moulding boxes, and a
    curing process which is a baking process to harden the core so that handling and the
    passage of the molten metal can be withstood.
    Figure shows the cavity moulded by the pattern with the sand core in position, ready for
    pouring the metal. When the poured metal is set the boxes are opened the casting
    extracted, and the sand core still in the casting is removed by chipping or
    sandblasting.

    Cast holes cored holes


    Holes of any kind in castings are produced either by casting or by cooling. Holes
    produces by the mould sand of the boxes, as in figures are cast holes. Holes produced
    by use of a special sand are cored holes
