چکیده
In the paper the analysis of wax pattern and casting dimensions changes during each stages of investment casting technology process has been presented. Results of wax patterns and castings of test plate free and restrained contractions dimensions changes research carried out in Department of Foundry Engineering at Brno University of Technology have been presented as well. Moreover obtained results were compared with results of casing “industrial” casting dimension changes research.

Dimensional accuracy and surface property of titanium casting using gypsum-bonded alumina investment.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the dimensional accuracy and surface property of titanium casting obtained using a gypsum-bonded alumina investment. The experimental gypsum-bonded alumina investment with 20 mass% gypsum content mixed with 2 mass% potassium sulfate was used for five cp titanium castings and three Cu-Zn alloy castings. The accuracy, surface roughness (Ra), and reacti...
متن کاملMarginal Accuracy of Castings Fabricated with Ringless Casting Investment System and Metal Ring Casting Investment System: A Comparative Study.
BACKGROUND The thermal expansion of the investment can be restricted by the metal casting ring because the thermal expansion of the ring is less than that of the investment. The ringless casting procedure is in use in clinical dentistry, though there is little scientific data to support its use in fixed partial dentures. In this study, marginal discrepancy of castings produced with the ringless...
متن کاملMold filling and dimensional accuracy of titanium castings in a spinel-based investment.
OBJECTIVES Aim of the study was to analyze the mold filling capacity and the dimensional accuracy of a spinel-based investment for titanium castings. METHODS Expansion of the investment in dependence of the preheating temperature was measured in a dilatometer. The degree of transformation of MgO and Al2O3 to spinel (MgAl2O4) was evaluated by means of X-ray powder diffraction. Mold filling cap...
متن کاملStudy of resin-bonded calcia investment. Part 3: Hardness of titanium castings.
The Vickers hardness of the cross-sectioned area of titanium castings made from an experimental resin-bonded calcia investment and three commercial investments was evaluated. The microstructure and element distribution of the surface zone were analyzed using an EPMA. The results showed that the high hardness of the casting surface could be decreased using the experimental investment. The hardne...
متن کاملAbrasive Water Jet Cutting (awjc) of Co-cr-mo Alloy Investment Castings in the Medical Device Industry
Investment castings (usually involving ceramic based shells) have traditionally been separated from the mould tree using an abrasive cutting operation. While material removal rates are relatively high, the process unfortunately suffers from poor accuracy control that often necessitates further finishing operations. Following an overview of key considerations in investment casting including tree...
