Cast System: Big power and big boost put serious stress on the cylinder heads. Casting technology is rapidly evolving to meet the demand Horsepower: 2,500. Cubic inches: 430. Boost pressure: 45 psi.

With most casting today, the process starts at the computer, where a part has been designed and needs to be developed for precision sand-casting. The part is broken down to determine how many molds ...

There exists a need for ever more accurate parts and products to be created, and to be created quickly and efficiently. One way of doing this is to use rapid prototyping technologies. Rapid ...

US-based company Tooling & Equipment International (TEI) expands additive manufacturing capacity with third VX4000 3D sand printer As a supplier to General Motors, TEI is using the world's largest 3D ...

As part of the Industrialization of Core Printing (ICP) cooperation project, voxeljet has developed a process for the automated large-scale production of sand cores. voxeljet has implemented a fully ...

Pouring molten metal into three-dimensional molds to make metal parts is the basis behind both sand and investment casting. But there are significant differences between these two methods. In sand ...

Chemically bonded and green sand cores and molds (coated or uncoated) are a key part of metal casting technology. Their behavior, when contacting molten metal during casting, is of crucial importance ...

[Chris Borge] has made (and revised) many of his own tools using a combination of 3D printing and common hardware, and recently decided to try metal casting. Having created his own tapping arm, he ...
