Use of Simulation to Predict the Viability of Salt Cores in the HPDC Process- Shot Curve as a Decisive Criterion

Martin Lagler, Process Engineer ApplicationsBühler AG Uzwil, Switzerland Abstract Lost Core is a technology which is becoming increasingly more popular as the need for lightweight construction increases. The advantages are obvious: Completely new components can be developed since the use of salt cores in HPDC allows for complex internal designs. In addition, combining several components
