Developed by the AFS Aluminum Division Technical Committee, Permanent Mold Practices.
The Aluminum Permanent Mold Handbook was created to fill the need for information on the increased application of permanent mold castings. These expanded casting applications are a direct result of advances in the process technology and of the enhanced knowledge of this process by today's design engineers.
Foundry personnel, design engineers, and process engineers will benefit from the Aluminum Permanent Mold Handbook. Topics include: alloy selection; process variations with typical parts applications; manual, semi-automated or fully automated castings processes; casting defect causes and remedies; computer simulation.
