AUTHORS P. Jelínek1, E. Adámková1, F. Mikšovský1, J. Beňo1 ABSTRACT A number of technologies is developed that substitute simple metal cores in the high-pressure casting technology. Soluble cores, namely on the salt basis, represent the highest prospect. The contribution gives the results of the production of salt cores by high-pressure squeezing and shooting with using a binder. Special attention

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
