• Permold Casting Tutorial (.pdf)
  The Permold process, also known as Gravity Die-Casting, produces large number of castings via a non-destructible, metal mold. Specifically, molten metal is poured into a passageway leading to the part cavity whereupon solidifying, it is ejected from the Permold. Permold Tutorial 9-20-04.pub...
• Metal-Matrix Composites
  Metal-matrix composites are either in use or prototyping for the Space Shuttle, commercial airliners, electronic substrates, bicycles, automobiles, golf clubs, and a variety of other applications. While the vast majority are aluminum matrix composites, a growing number of applications require...

• FEA for the factory
  to predict the temperature field at all times, including heat transfer from metal to mold, and from mold to air or cooling lines. Therefore, the software includes such features as one that couples the thermal history at any location in the casting with the nucleation and growth of microstructures. This lets...
• U.S. Metalcasting Industry is Committed to Greater Energy Efficiency and Environmental Sustainability
  on the fact that metals are among a select number of materials that can be recycled indefinitely without losing their inherent properties. Today, American metalcasters recycle millions of tons of discarded scrap metal annually into a wide range of new products. In fact, approximately 75% of all materials...

• A better way to Cost-Out Designs
  at the problem with programs intended for design departments. The design-for-manufacturing program mentioned above lets designers compare costs for parts made by a range of different manufacturing processes, including casting, injection molding, milling, and sheet metal. Another program, an online...
• Zinc Blackening
  There are many ways to blacken both electrodeposited and cast zinc and its alloys. We have solution formulations in our technical library dating back to 1896 (Metal Colouring). Over the forty-five year history of Anoplate, most blackening systems have been used at one time or another. The various...
• Industrial Vacuum Cleaner for Foundry Sand Cleaning
  displacement pump designed specifically for high volume recovery (up to 6 tons per hour). It is also used in the recovery of heavy materials including steel shot, foundry sand, metal powders, sludges and other materials of similar nature. It is available in either 10 or 15 horsepower and its...
• Powder-Forged Connecting Rod Evaluation
  Since 1986, more than 500 million powder forged (PF) connecting rods have been manufactured and installed in automobiles worldwide. The application of forging a preformed near-net shape consolidated from metal powder has been widely accepted since the early eighties and today is the preferred...
