Abstract In the automobile industry, aluminum casting is a commonly utilized production process for structural components. However, flaws in aluminum castings can lead to fatigue failures. This research study provides a thorough analysis of the design, development, construction, and testing of a swing arm made of aluminum die-cast (HPDC). The investigation primarily focuses on analyzing

JCampbellIRC in Materials, The University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, UK Abstract A quantitative study of the factors influencing the variability of casting dimensions has been attempted. The variability of casting size limits the achievement of a finished (i.e. net) shape in one operation. The casting processes include lost wax, lost foam, sand casting, gravity
