Abstract

In our present study, we mainly focused on the reduction of the casting and moulding defects that mainly occurs during metallurgical process and we are able to depict some of those severe problems that might hamper the casting procedure. Among them temperature gradient, time difference in alloy solidification, surface area of casting material, impact of varied amount of volume of molten metal and the shape of the mould opening which we concluded should be squared instead of tapered to enhance the performance of the casting process.
