When compared to green sand moulds, resin bound sand moulds and cores have higher
mechanical characteristics and create more dimensionally exact castings, and are thus …

Green sand mold casting process is an ancient manufacturing process where the
manufacturing cost is very low and can produce intricate shape casting for different industrial …

In this study, effects of sawdust, coal dust and iron filling additives at varied proportions on
some selected properties of moulding sand were investigated. Consequently, cylindrical …

This paper proposes a methodological framework to develop a data-driven process control
using pure industrial production data from a cast iron foundry, despite the limitation of …

The rate of heat dissipation affects the solidification of the casting. A controlled cooling rate
is necessary to produce defect-free castings. Sand qualities such as green compression …

In the cast iron industry, mould sand quality and the most efficient recovery of used sand into
the system are critical. For this purpose, the optimum values of the factors (humidity, active …

This study investigates and compared various properties of high-quality foundry sands on
the surface quality of castings, whose cores are produced using the col-box method …

Bentonites and clays are included in the group of drilling fluids materials. The raw materials
are mainly clay minerals, which are divided into several groups, like montmorillonite …

The high cost of primary construction materials such as cement, and increase in waste
generation due to human activities coupled with environmental concerns has led to the …

Silica sand is used as a primary mould material for green sand mould casting due to its high
refractoriness and readily availability. Silica sand is also used as a raw material in various …
