Hot tearing is a casting defect responsible for external and internal cracks on casting products. This irregular undesired formation is often observed during solidification and freezing. The solidification of molten metal also causes thermal contraction and shrinkage, indicating the occurrence of hot tearing when the alloy is restrained by the mould design. The parameters affecting this process include the pouring and mould temperatures, the chemical composition of the alloy, and the mould shape. Also, the factors affecting hot tearing susceptibility include pouring and mould temperatures, the grain refiner, as well as pouring speed. There are many methods of measuring the level of susceptibility to hot tearing, one of which is the thermal contraction evaluation during metal solidification, observed in cast products through several mould types. This paper discusses the hot tearing overview, the effect of pouring temperature, mould temperature, grain refiner, pouring speed on hot tearing, the type of mould, and criterion for hot tear observation.

Production of the defect-free casting of aluminium alloys is the biggest challenge. Porosity is known to be the most important defect. Therefore, many cast parts are subjected to several non-destructive tests in order to check their acceptability. There are several standards, yet, the acceptance limit of porosity size and distribution may change according to the customer design and requirements. In this work, the aim was targeted to evaluate the effect of size, location, and distribution of pores on the tensile properties of cast A356 alloy. ANSYS software was used to perform stress analysis where the pore sizes were changed between 0.05 mm to 3 mm by 0.05 mm increments. Additionally, pore number was changed from 1 to 5 where they were placed at different locations in the test bar. Finally, bifilms were placed inside the pore at different sizes and orientations. The stress generated along the pores was recorded and compared with the fracture stress of the A356 alloy. It was found that as the bifilm size was getting smaller, their effect on tensile properties was lowered. On the other hand, as bifilms were larger, their orientation became the dominant factor in determining the fracture.

Gas atmosphere at the sand mould/cast alloy interface determines the quality of the casting obtained. Therefore the aim of this study was to measure and evaluate the gas forming tendency of selected moulding sands with alkyd resins. During direct and indirect gas measurements, the kinetics of gas evolution was recorded as a function of the temperature of the sand mixture undergoing the process of thermal destruction. The content of hydrogen and oxygen was continuously monitored to establish the type of the atmosphere created by the evolved gases (oxidizing/reducing). The existing research methodology [1, 7, 8] has been extended to include pressure-assisted technique of indirect measurement of the gas evolution rate. For this part of the studies, a new concept of the measurement was designed and tested. This article presents the results of measurements and compares gas emissions from two sand mixtures containing alkyd resins known under the trade name SL and SL2002, in which the polymerization process is initiated with isocyanate. Studies of the gas forming tendency were carried out by three methods on three test stands to record the gas evolution kinetics and evaluate the risk of gas formation in a moulding or core sand. Proprietary methods for indirect evaluation of the gas forming tendency have demonstrated a number of beneficial aspects, mainly due to the ability to record the quantity and composition of the evolved gases in real time and under stable and reproducible measurement conditions. Direct measurement of gas evolution rate from the tested sands during cast iron pouring process enables a comparison of the results with the results obtained by indirect methods.

The results of researches of sorption processes of surface layers of components of sand moulds covered by protective coatings are presented in the hereby paper. Investigations comprised various types of sand grains of moulding sands with furan resin: silica sand, reclaimed sand and calcined in temperature of 700 oC silica sand. Two kinds of alcoholic protective coatings were used – zirconium and zirconium – graphite. Tests were performed under condition of a constant temperature within the range 30 – 35oC and high relative air humidity 75 - 80%. To analyze the role of sand grains in sorption processes quantitavie moisture sorption with use of gravimetric method and ultrasonic method were used in measurements. The tendency to moisture sorption of surface layers of sand moulds according to the different kinds of sand grains was specified. The effectiveness of protective action of coatings from moisture sorption was analyzed as well. Knowledge of the role of sand grains from the viewpoint of capacity for moisture sorption is important due to the surface casting defects occurrence. In particular that are defects of a gaseous origin caused by too high moisture content of moulds, especially in surface layers.

One way to ensure the required technical characteristics of castings is the strict control of production parameters affecting the quality of the finished products. If the production process is improperly configured, the resulting defects in castings lead to huge losses. Therefore, from the point of view of economics, it is advisable to use the methods of computational intelligence in the field of quality assurance and adjustment of parameters of future production. At the same time, the development of knowledge in the field of metallurgy, aimed to raise the technical level and efficiency of the manufacture of foundry products, should be followed by the development of information systems to support production processes in order to improve their effectiveness and compliance with the increasingly more stringent requirements of ergonomics, occupational safety, environmental protection and quality. This article is a presentation of artificial intelligence methods used in practical applications related to quality assurance. The problem of control of the production process involves the use of tools such as the induction of decision trees, fuzzy logic, rough set theory, artificial neural networks or case-based reasoning.

Problem diagnostyki wad odlewniczych, w zakładach małych i średnich, gdzie nie ma jeszcze możliwości skorzystania z wielokryterialnych danych pomiarowych, to problem wymagający zastosowania metod przetwarzania informacji niepełnych i niepewnych, opartych o doświadczenie i obserwacje technologa poddającego kontroli gotowe odlewy. Problem ten, znany i badany od dawna, postanowiono rozwiązać z zastosowaniem systemu komputerowego wykorzystującego metodologię CBR (ang. Case-Based Reasoning). Metodologia CBR pozwala nie tylko na wykorzystanie wiedzy eksperckiej zgromadzonej na etapie implementacji, ale daje również możliwość „uczenia systemu” poprzez gromadzenie nowych, rozwiązywanych przez system przypadków. Autorzy prezentują rozwiązanie systemu wnioskowania w oparciu o zgromadzone przypadki, którego podstawą działania jest wyszukiwanie podobieństwa pomiędzy obserwowanym przypadkiem, a przypadkami zgromadzonymi w bazie wiedzy.

The problem of diagnosis of casting defects in small and medium-sized enterprises, which do not have the benefit of multi-objective measurement data, is a problem that requires the use of methods of processing incomplete and uncertain data based on the experience and observations of technologist controlling finished castings. This problem is known and studied for a long time, but this time it is decided to be solved with the use of a computer system using Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) methodology. CBR methodology allows to use the expert knowledge accumulated in the implementation phase, and also gives opportunity to „learning” by collecting of new cases solved by the system. The authors present a solution of the reasoning system that uses knowledge in the form of accumulated cases and works basing on similarity search between the current case and the cases stored in the knowledge base.

A significant part of the knowledge used in the production processes is represented with natural language. Yet, the use of that knowledge in computer-assisted decision-making requires the application of appropriate formal and development tools. An interesting possibility is created by the use of an ontology that is understandable both for humans and for the computer. This paper presents a proposal for structuring the information about the foundry processes, based on the definition of ontology adapted to the physical structure of the ongoing technological operations that make up the process of producing castings.

EN
Purpose: Cold cracks are the defect often encountered in castings. Quick diagnosis of the cause of crack formation enables preventing the formation of other cracks in the next casting process and enables also, as far as it is possible, a repair of the existing defect. In this task expert systems are a very useful tool. Design/methodology/approach: Standard of Casting Defects elaborated in Poland, Atlas of Casting Defects elaborated in France, and a Review of Casting Defects elaborated in the Czech Republic. These sources are the knowledge compendium of casting defects. Basing on such information, serving as a defect description, the cause of the defect formation and the way of preventing it have been created as formalisms which enable an inference to be carried out, the aim of which is to establish the cause of the defect. Findings: The use of LPR (the Logic of Plausible Reasoning) in the representation of knowledge about casting defects introduces a new quality, allowing to take into consideration the specific characteristics of this knowledge such as: uncertainty, definitions hierarchy, the possibility of introducing the diagnostics ranking. In consequence, the diagnostic process becomes more flexible and may be better adjusted to the real technological process conditions. Practical implications: The efficiency of an expert system diagnosis depends on the data entered previously and on the way in which the knowledge is represented. Originality/value: In this article various representations of the knowledge have been presented by means of the logic of plausible reasoning.
