Design recommendations for casting
 Compensate the shrinkage of the solidified molten metal by making
patterns of slightly oversize.
 In sand casting, it is more economical and accurate if the parting line is on
a flat plane
 Contoured parting lines are not economical.
 Further, some degree of taper, or draft is recommended to provide to the
pattern for its easy removal . Similar to sand casting, permanent mold
castings also require draft for the easy withdrawal of the casting from the
mold
 In sand casting, it is recommended to attach the raiser near to the heavier
section.
 The thinnest sections are farthest from the raiser and solidify first and then
the solidification proceeds toward the direction of raiser i.e. towards the
heavier section
 Sharp corners in a casting design cause uneven cooling and lead to
formation of hot spots in the final cast structure.
 Moreover sharp corner in a casting structure acts as a stress raiser.
Rounding the corner decreases the severity of the hot spot and lessens the
stress concentration
 Abrupt changes in sections should be avoided. Fillets and tapers are
preferable to sharp steps
 The interior walls and sections are recommended to be 20% thinner than
the outside members to reduce the thermal and residual stresses, and
metallurgical changes
 When a hole is placed in a highly stressed section, add extra material
around the hole as reinforcement
 To minimize the residual stresses in the gear, pulley or wheel casting, a
balance between the section size of the rim, spokes and hub is maintained
 An odd number of curved wheel spokes reduce cast-in-residual stresses
 Due to pattern shrinkage, investment shrinkage and metal shrinkage
during solidification, there is always a tendency for an investment part to
“dish” (develop concave surfaces where flat surfaces are specified). This
condition takes place in areas of thick cross section. Dishing is minimized
by designing parts with uniformly thin walls

Editor's Notes

  1. Due to the nature of the geometry of these sections it is likely that they will contain an area where the metal casting's solidification is slower than the rest of the junction. They are located such that the material around them, which will undergo solidification first, will cut off the hot spots from the flow of molten metal. The flow of casting material must be carefully considered when manufacturing such junctions. If there is some flexibility in the design of the metal casting and it is possible you may want to think about redesigning the junction. These should reduced the likelihood of the formation of hot spots.
  2. Shrinkage allowance is the main factor occurring in the dimensions of wax patterns. This shrinkage allowance differs as per wax. There are three types of wax used for patterns; they are machine wax, Sprue wax and pattern wax. The proper shrinkage study should be done on the wax patterns to select the suitable wax for getting the accurate dimensions and finishing of the end product.
