Lectures:
1. Foundry industry in the Czech republic and in the world, statistics, possibilities and limits of casting production. Procedure of casting production from a design to the dispatch department
2. Applied processes and techniques in foundries. Production of castings using permanent metal mold and lost sand mold
3. Molding materials, sand, binders, mold and core making technologies, molding mixtures making and testing
4. Sand reclamation techniques – dry, wet, thermal reclamation
5. Melt flow in molds,castability, running system design and calculation
6. Static and dynamic action of the melted alloys on molds and cores. Gases in metals and molds
7. Castings crystallization and solidification
8. Solidification shrinkage – feeding (risers)
9. Linear contraction of the casting, hot tearing, cold cracking, residual stresses
10. Materials for casting production, cast steel
11. Cast irons - types, structures, mecanical properties
12. Cast iron – melting, secondary metallurgy, innoculation
