Popis: A novel additive casting approach, termed as layer casting (LC), was proposed to fabricate ingots with homogeneous composition and grain structure distribution. Ingots of Al-4.5 wt pct Cu were fabricated using conventional and novel methods to verify the feasibility of this novel approach. The results show that the novel processing not only alleviates macrosegregation but also reduces the shrinkage cavity and improves the tensile properties of the as-cast condition.
