Abstract

Abstract A method of producing castings comprising the steps of: pouring moulds with inoculated cast iron containing, by weight per cent: carbon 3.6-3.8, silicon 2.8-3.2, manganese up to 0.4, magnesium not more than 0.01, at a melt temperature ranging from 1420° to 1450° C, and subsequently cooling the cast iron. The thickness of walls of the castings is chosen so that the initial cooling rate is 10°-14° C/sec with a preset heat conductivity.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
A method of producing castings having thin walls and thick walls comprising the steps of: pouring inoculated cast iron consisting essentially of, by weight, 3.6-3.8% carbon, 2.8-3.2% silicon, up to 0.4% manganese, not more than 0.01% magnesium and the remainder being iron at a melt temperature within the range of from 1420° to 1450° C into moulds; and subsequently cooling portions of the cast iron with thin walls of the castings being up to 3 mm that the initial cooling rate is 10°-14° C/sec to form nodular cast iron in the thin-walled portions and simultaneously cooling portions of the cast iron with thick walls of the castings of a thickness that the initial cooling rate is 1°-4° C/sec to form gray cast iron in the thick-walled portions.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 127 words
A method of producing castings having thin walls and thick walls comprising the steps of: pouring inoculated cast iron consisting essentially of, by weight, 3.6-3.8% carbon, 2.8-3.2% silicon, up to 0.4% manganese, not more than 0.01% magnesium and the remainder being iron at a melt temperature within the range of from 1420° to 1450° C into moulds; and subsequently cooling portions of the cast iron with thin walls of the castings being up to 3 mm that the initial cooling rate is 10°-14° C/sec to form nodular cast iron in the thin-walled portions and simultaneously cooling portions of the cast iron with thick walls of the castings of a thickness that the initial cooling rate is 1°-4° C/sec to form gray cast iron in the thick-walled portions.
