The computer solidification simulation and Process optimization of Gear ring

The numerical solidification simulation for gear ring steel casting has been made, and the location and reasons forming casting defects have been predicted by HUAZHU CAE software. Simulating result shows that the directional solidification and efficient feeding were maintained and the casting perfects can be realized by means of the computer simulation optimizing technological and rationally design of gating system, insulated risers, iron chill and compensating efficiently. After magnetic particle detection and ultrasonic inspection, the properties and microstructure of the Gear ring steel casting are in accord with the international standard.
