Study of Shell Cracking Behavior and its Remedies in Investment Casting Process Using Quick Cast Rapid Prototype Polymer Patterns

Abstract:

Investment casting has emerged as the foremost casting process for manufacturing of intricate parts where better dimensional accuracy is required. Use of rapid prototyping polymer patterns is one of the major advancements in investment casting process. Elimination of die making step as required in the traditional wax process makes it quicker and a cost effective process. The direct conversion of 3D CAD data into rapid prototyping pattern decreases development time, chances of costly mistakes, minimizes sustaining engineering changes and extend product lifetime by adding necessary features and eliminating redundant features early in the design.
