Continuous Casting


Book Description

The Continuous Casting 2000 symposium maintains the tradition established in 1976 of holding regular events. This millennium event, however, is the first international meeting of the series. The aim is to highlight the importance of continuous casting - of aluminum, copper and magnesium - to the international fabricating industry, focusing on technological advances in all the sectors that are important for the manufacture of high quality continuous cast products.







The Complete Book on Ferrous, Non-Ferrous Metals with Casting and Forging Technology


Book Description

The Casting and Forging product is playing a greater role in our everyday lives and is essential than it has ever been. The Casting and Forging industry fortunes is largely dependent on the level of activity within the construction (building and non-building) and automotive sectors. Ferrous and non ferrous metals and its alloys accounts for a large portion of all metal production. Metal ingots and billets are formed by a casting process. The Casting process has traversed a long path and impacted human civilization for nearly five millennia. For any metal casting process, selection of right alloy, size, shape, thickness, tolerance, texture, and weight is very vital. Casting process involves melting the metal to be used, pouring it into a mould, letting it cool and then knocking out the casting. On the other hand, forging is one of the oldest known metal working processes. Forging technology occupies a very important place among all the manufacturing processes as it produces parts with excellent properties and with minimal wastage. Forging involves the use of machinery with a hammering or pressing action to convert basic shapes into a pre-determined form. Forging has the capacity to refine the grain structure and improve the physical properties of the metal. Forging products are consistent, without the defects of porosity, inclusion or voids, and finishing operations like machining, coining, sizing, straightening or surface treatments can also be easily done. This handbook gives a concise description of the fascinating on the state-of-the-art technology of the casting and forging process of metals and metal alloys. This book contains precise details on production of ferrous and non ferrous metals, its casting and forging process along with their alloys. It is hoped that this book will find very helpful to all its readers who are just beginners in this field and will also find useful for existing industries, technocrats, technical institutions, etc. TAGS How to Start Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Processing Industry, Most Profitable Copper Production Business Ideas, Pig Iron Processing Projects, Small Scale Aluminium Manufacturing Projects, Starting a Non-Ferrous Metal Processing Business, How to Start a Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Production Business, Ferrous Metals Based Small Scale Industries Projects, New small scale ideas in special welding processing industry, NPCS, Niir, Process technology books, Business consultancy, Business consultant, Project identification and selection, Preparation of Project Profiles, Startup, Business guidance, Business guidance to clients, Startup Project for Ferrous, Non-Ferrous Metals, Startup Project, Startup ideas, Project for startups, Startup project plan, Business start-up, Business Plan for a Startup Business, Great Opportunity for Startup, Small Start-up Business Project, Start-up Business Plan for production of non-ferrous metal, Startup India, Stand up India, Aluminium Making Small Business Manufacturing, Modern small and cottage scale industries, Profitable small and cottage scale industries, Setting up and opening your welding and joining Business, How to Start a production of magnesium?, How to start a successful pig iron production business, Small scale Commercial Copper making, Best small and cottage scale industries, Non-Ferrous Metals Business, Profitable Small Scale Manufacturing, Ferrous & Non-Ferrous Metals, Manufacture of Lead, Copper Manufacturing Process, Copper Production Process, Ferrous Metals, Non Ferrous Castings, Non-ferrous metal casting, production of ferrous metal, production of pig iron, production of non-ferrous metal, Production of Aluminum, Production of Magnesium, Manufacturing Process of Lead, Production of copper, Production of Lead, Welding and Joining Process, Arc Welding Process, Resistance Welding Process, Oxyfuel Gas Welding Process, Magnesium Processing, Solid State Welding Process, Magnesium Production Process, Special Welding Process, Finish Process, Production of Magnesium, Blast Finishing, Metallic Coating, Conditioning Semi-Finished Products, Structural Mills, Universal Beam Mills, Forging, Precision Forging, Forging Machines, Metal Casting Process, Plaster Mold Casting, Ceramic Mold Casting, Vacuum Casting, Permanent Mold Casting, Cold Chamber Process, Squeeze Casting And Semisolid Metal Forming, Foundry Process, Sand Technology, Tube Mills, Lead Production, Production of Continuous Butt-Welded Pipe, Production of Electric Resistance Welded Tubing and Electric Welded Large Diameter Pipe, Production of Seamless Shells or Bottles by Direct Punching, Rotary Piercing Machines, Plug Rolling Mills, Reeling, Mandrel Mill, Sizing and stretch mills, production of tubes, extrusion process, hot extrusion, cold extrusion, Drawing Process, Aluminium production Ferrous Metals Processing Industry, Process of producing pig iron, Ferrous Metals and Production, Process of manufacturing pig iron, Aluminum Manufacturing, Manufacturing Metals, Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal Production, Non-ferrous Production, manufacturing process of ferrous metal, Ferrous Metal Manufacture, Non Ferrous Metals Manufacture, Production Process and of Pig Iron, Manufacture of Pig Iron, Pig iron production, Production of Iron Manufacturing Process, Non-ferrous Metals Industries, Manufacturing of Copper, Manufacturing Process of No-Ferrous Metals, Aluminium production process, Aluminium Manufacturing Methods, Process of manufacturing of Aluminium, Processes for Magnesium Production, Magnesium production, Manufacturing process of magnesium, Copper Production, Manufacture of copper, Lead Processing, Processing Methods for Producing Lead, Manufacturing Lead, Welding and Allied Process, Joining Process, Welding Process,




Direct Strip Casting of Metals and Alloys


Book Description

Direct strip casting is a continuous casting process for producing metallic sheet directly from the molten state that minimises the need for substantial secondary processing. This important book is the first to review the implications of strip casting technology for a range of alloys, including carbon and stainless steel, aluminium, magnesium, titanium, copper and other non-ferrous alloys.The book is divided into six chapters, with the first two describing the physical metallurgy of candidate alloys for direct strip casting and the development of microstructure during solidification. Chapter 3 describes the principles of continuous casting processes and the evolution of direct strip casting. It provides the foundation for the following two chapters which describe process variables and their impact on microstructure and strip quality. The final chapter describes possible techniques in secondary processing and fabrication of the as-cast strip. Two appendices discuss simulation and modelling issues, and the measurement and representation of textures in metal strip.Direct strip casting of metals and alloys is a standard reference on a technology destined to have a profound impact on the manufacturing landscape of the twenty-first century. - First book to review the implications of strip technology for a range of alloys - Essential book on a technology destined to have a profound impact on the manufacturing landscape of the twenty-first century
