About the substitutional state between the EPS pattern-molten silumin on the new Evaporative Pattern Casting Process, the effects of the pouring system, vacuum
degree, pouring temperature, whether coat is adopted or not on the substitutional state between the EPS pattern-molten silumin were investigated.
The obvious results are
as follows :
(1) In the case under vacuum, the molten metal flows through the boundary of the EPS pattern and the mold firstly, then the unmelted and ungasified EPS
pattern is wrapped in the molten metal and remains in that state for a little while.
(2) In the case without vacuum, the molten metal gets into the EPS pattern, then pushed-off the melted pattern which was heated by the molten metal, and filled up in a state of being nipped between
the molten metal and the mold, to the boundary of the mold. The pattern that in a state of melted, after then gasified and discharged.
(3) There are no connections
with the pouring system, pouring temperature, vacuum degree, whether coat is adopted or not. The molten metal expands with an isometric circular-arc shape nearly centering the
gate.
(4) The flow velocity of the molten metal will increase, when the vacuum degree and pouring temperature were increased. Moreover, the flow velocity of the
molten metal is in the order of the top, side and bottom pouring, both in the case of under vacuum and without vacuum.
(5) In the case of the coat adopted and
without vacuum, the flow velocity of the molten metal becomes slower when compared with the case without coating, but is almost not affected by the kind of coat, the thickness of the
coat and the kind of backing sand.
