Abstract: |
||||
Gravity die casting is a repeatable casting process used for non-ferrous alloy parts like aluminium, zinc and copper base alloys. This process is widely used for casting various aluminium alloys. Aluminium Alloys are used in many ‘marine castings’, motor vehicle, railway coaches, thin section castings, aircraft fittings and control parts, and for very large aluminium castings. These applications demand the study of techniques to improve mechanical properties and grain structure of these alloys. Present experiment work shows the effect of mechanical vibration on grain size, inner defect, and mechanical property of aluminium alloys. As a result, this review will provide the improvement in mechanical properties and grain structure of LM-25 alloy by applying mechanical vibrations during the gravity die casting process of alloy. |
