  2. 1. Experimental approaches to powder filling and lubrication in powder die pressing

    Author : Erik Hjortsberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; XPS; friction; die filling; interference microscopy; density variations; lubrication; compaction; experimental equipment; tribology; powder metallurgy;

    Abstract : There is a continuous need to improve the mechanical properties of steel parts produced through powder metallurgy in order to ensure the market growth of this sector and competitiveness against alternative production techniques. One of the more promising routes able to achieve this is to aim for components with higher densities. READ MORE

  4. 2. On Tool Failure in Die Casting

    Author : Anders Persson; Sture Hogmark; Jens Bergström; Torsten Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Abstract : Die casting is a very cost-efficient method of forming thin-walled and complex near net-shaped products with close geometric tolerances and good surface finish. A permanent die tool is used to make large quantities of identical products. The performance and tool life are limited by several mechanisms, e.g. READ MORE

  5. 3. On determining lost core viability in high-pressure die casting using Computational Continuum Mechanics

    Author : Sebastian Kohlstädt; Pär Jönsson; Julio Hernandez; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high-pressure die casting; lost salt cores; computational continuum mechanics; two-phase compressible flow; OpenFOAM; CFD; fluid-structure interaction; volume-of-fluid method;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis work is to investigate whether Computational ContinuumMechanics (CCM) can serve as a valuable tool for the casting engineerto determine a priori whether a housing concept with inlying geometries thatso far only exists in Computer Aided Design (CAD) will have the desired coolingperformance and will be manufacturable with an acceptable number ofrejects.As of spring 2019, no application in serial production of lost cores, i.

  6. 4. Optimization product parts in high pressure die casting process

    Author : Mohammad Sadeghi; Rebei Bel-fdhila; Dan Loyd; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Economics and Organisations;

    Abstract : This thesis describes optimization of die temperature in high pressure die-casting (HPDC) of A380 alloy by experimental observation and numerical simulation with the use of statistical tools. The goal of this research is to determine the optimum die temperature to minimize incidence of these defects and thus maximize production of parts without defects. READ MORE

  7. 5. Modelling and Characterisation of Granular Material Flow

    Author : Simon Larsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållfasthetslära; Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Granular materials are very common both in nature and in industry, and their extensive use means that there are financial incentives for increased efficiency. There are huge costs related to their use and handling, which is a major motivation for increased knowledge of the behaviour of granular materials at different loading conditions. READ MORE
