Computers in Foundries
Computers have now entered into the foundryengineering. Foundry mechanization and modernizationare of considerable importance today when the foundryhas evolved from an ancient art into a modern scienceand it is fully controlled and monitored by computers.Modernization is the only key to improve casting qualityand productivity. From industrial point of view, theyhave been in use in the administrative areas of finance,accounting, personnel records, wage, salaries, andinventory control for a long period. Many foundry machinesystems are computerized. Due to the entry of computersin foundries, fatigue and strain on the workers and staffshave been considerably reduced during working andwork culture has improved tremendously. Improved workculture can lead to a sense of participation, involvement,and creativity. This review paper discusses on the role,prospects, and application of computers in foundries.Besides, an introduction on the computer aided foundrymodel design and computer aided foundry die design arepresented precisely in this paper. It also discusses on thenumerical simulation of casting solidification performed infoundries and a brief information about the computerizedand automated foundry line have been provided in thistechnical paper. The applications of expert systems infoundries and various types of foundry software packagescommonly used in the metal casting industries areexplained in detail in this review paper
A Numerical Study on the Temperature Distribution of Mold according to the Heat Flux and Heat Transfer Time at the Surface of Tire Mold
Real TIME Identification of Stamping Dies
The work is concern with real timeidentification of stamping dies using RFID tags,readerand optical laser distance sensor. Dies are part of Press machine and made up of metal. Due to randomly placed large quantity of dies in certain area, identifying particular die is main problem.In this technology RFID technology used for identifying diesand optical laser distance sensor used for locating die position.Wire communication is not possible in this system so wireless communication (IEEE 803.11) standard used. For storing data MY SQL database used and for programming PHP language used. To make system more user-friendly android application also developed. RFID based asset trackinghelps improve security as well as efficiency. The improved security and efficiency results in a significant return on investment ina very short duratio
