The dendrite morphologies of the cast nickel-based superalloy CMSX-4® (CMSX-4® is registered trademarks of the Cannon-Muskegon Corporation) and the austenitic stainless steel HP microalloy have been obtained via an automated serial-sectioning proce

Refractory metal silicide composites on the basis of Nbss-Nb5Si3 have been investigated as potential alternatives for nickel-base superalloys for years because of their low densities and good high-temperature strengths. NbSi-based composites are typi

The tilt casting method is used to achieve tranquil filling of γ-TiAl turbine blades up to 400 mm long. The reactive titanium alloy is induction melted in a cold crucible, and the crucible with the attached mould is then rotated through 180° to tra

As part of the EC-funded IMPRESS project, a novel technique has been developed for casting titanium aluminides which combines clean melting under argon in an Induction Skull Melting furnace with tranquil tilt pouring into a pre-heated ceramic shell m

All titanium alloys are highly reactive in the molten condition and so are usually melted in a water-cooled copper crucible to avoid contamination using processes such as Induction Skull Melting (ISM). These provide only limited superheat which, coup

The cold crucible, or induction skull melting process as is otherwise known, has the potential to produce high purity melts of a range of difficult to melt materials, including Ti–Al and Ti6Al4V alloys for Aerospace, Ti–Ta and other biocompatible

Induction skull melting (ISM) is a widely used process for melting certain alloys that are very reactive in the molten condition, such as those based on Ti, TiAl, and Zr, prior to casting components such as turbine blades, engine valves, turbocharger

An immersion thermocouple and a twin wavelength infrared radiation pyrometer have been used to measure the temperature of titanium aluminide during melting in an induction skull melting furnace. A molybdenum-alumina cermet thermocouple sheath has bee

Mechanical testing is expensive, labour intensive and only provides properties of sacrificial castings or representative test bars but offers no guarantees about other castings from the same batch....

Tilt pouring of TiAl alloy from an induction skull melting (ISM) furnace into a ceramic shell mould has been carried out in this research. Microstructures and casting defects entrained by surface turbulence have been examined using scanning electron
