CAD system for casting process of large steel castings
The manufacturing industry of large steel castings is the basic industry of national equipment manufacturing, and its development level is an important symbol to measure a country’s comprehensive national strength. There are more than 30 large steel casting production enterprises in China, most of which are large and medium-sized...

Repair of casting defects of medium and large steel castings
Different from forged steel parts, steel castings for hull structure have low carbon content and good welding performance. Defective parts are allowed to be repaired by welding. The control of the welding repair process is mainly related to the carbon equivalent of the casting material, the area of the...

Characteristics of cracks defects in medium and large steel castings
Hot crack: the crack is an irregular curve, the inner surface is rough and black brown iron oxide. Cold crack: the crack line is relatively straight, and the inner surface of the crack is clean and metallic luster. Fig. 1 JIS rodless anchor claw root arc surface thermal crack...

Analysis of cold crack defects in large steel castings
1. Manifestations of cold crack defects Under the joint action of welding stress and other embrittlement factors, the bonding force of metal atoms in the local area of the welded joint is destroyed to form a new interface. The gap generated by the new interface is a cold crack...
