  1. 1. Energy efficiency of smelting of scrap aluminium in HPDC facilities : Available and upcoming technologies

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

    Author : Bogdan Radu Racsi; [2023]
    Keywords : high pressure die casting; HPDC; energy efficiency; cast house remelting; internal aluminium scrap; melting furnace; melting and holding furnace; drivers; barriers;

    Abstract : The aluminium industry is anticipated to witness a surge in demand, with projectionsof a two to three-fold increase by 2050. Meeting environmental objectives andaddressing the growing emphasis on sustainability from both the industry andconsumers seeking eco-friendly products present significant challenges. READ MORE

  3. 2. Additively Manufactured Rare Earth Free Permanent Magnets

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap; Uppsala universitet/Oorganisk kemi

    Author : Himesha Abenayake; [2023]
    Keywords : additive manufacturing; MnAl; MnAl C ; rare earth free permanent magnets; selective laser melting; SLM; MnAl-based permanent magnets;

    Abstract : It’s well known that MnAl(C) material consists of a metastable phase (τ) with promising ferromagnetic properties, produced either by controlled cooling from the high-temperature hexagonal ε-phase or rapid cooling that freezes the ε-phase followed by low-temperature annealing. Due to the high cooling rates involved, additive manufacturing (AM) especially selective laser melting (SLM), has been identified as a possible method to retain the high-temperature ε-phase, hence containing a potential capacity to produce permanent magnets upon low-temperature annealing.

  4. 3. Alloy adaptation towards accepting higher amounts of secondary material

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Material och tillverkning

    Author : Nikhil Itagi; Shubham Kadam; [2022]
    Keywords : Aluman-16; Phase diagram; Phases; Microstructure; ThermoCalc; Intermetallic; Fractography.;

    Abstract : The work presented aims to find microstructure and mechanical properties after remelting of aluman-16 alloy by using high pressure die casting (HPDC). Alloy has been casted with specific composition. The alumna-16 alloy has been casted in 2 different composition of different Si content of 0.22% and 0. READ MORE

  5. 4. Melt pool Geometry and Microstructure Characterization in Additively Manufactured WE43 Alloy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Satya Chaitanya Vaddamanu; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Mg-RE based alloys have exhibited promising properties in application for biodegradable implants. This work provides a systematic study on the characterization of melt pool geometry and profile for one such alloy, WE43. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design Solution for Ingot Handling and Machining

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för maskin- och materialteknik

    Author : Johan Jönsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Mechanical Engineering; Product Development;

    Abstract : At the electro remelting slag (ESR) facility at Uddeholm, cylindrical steel ingots are produced in several different sizes. The ESR process requires a “starting step” that consist of a 20mm thick steel plate and is a little larger than the diameter of the ingot. READ MORE
