Learn how to make sourcing decisions easier and more efficiently with the AFS Supplier Marketplace, an interactive directory of foundry supplier partners. This webinar will review the features of this online resource that allows foundry... [more]

The present study investigated the effect of cooling rate on the solidification of hypereutectic Al-Ce alloys, where varying cooling rates were obtained using a step casting mold. The thinner section sizes led to higher cooling rates, leading to a... [more]

The phenolic urethane reaction causes byproducts to be emitted from molds as they cure. These emissions are thought to be linked to the physical property development of chemically bonded sand molds. The amount of emissions generated are typically... [more]

The global dominance of our US military depends on a reliable supply chain of replacement parts for our troops abroad.  Steel castings are prolific in all areas of the military and play a vital role in national defense.  Unfortunately, interruptions... [more]

This is a continuation of previous study of low-alloy steel quench hardening using forced convection bath (FCB) and intensive quench (IQ) systems. Work has been done to characterize the contributions of surface defects, carbon content, and... [more]

One of the largest obstacles for single row tapered roller bearings on wind turbines is the yield strength of its interior parts. Several studies have found improving strength levels by making expensive alloy additions or unconventional thermal... [more]
