Casting Process Simulation of the Ball Milling Machine End Cover

The solidification process,the formation mechanism and distribution law of microporosity of the ball milling machine head cover were simulated by computer.The Solidworks software was used to generate three-dimensional model of cast parts and the Hua-casting software was employed to simulate the casting process.The simulated results show that significant microporosity is found in the middle of two casting heads and at the place of gudgeon journal because of insufficient chilling degree.The processing rationality is judged through the computer-aided technology,by which some drawbacks of the traditional process are overcome and the process design quality is improved.
