Abstract:
In order to promote the green and sustainable development of the foundry industry, it is necessary to further explore new methods and technologies for green foundry. This paper innovatively proposes a method of additive manufacturing of frozen sand mold, using water as the binder instead of resin binders for additive manufacturing in low-temperature environments, which effectively solves the problems of harmful gas emissions during the pouring process and the difficulty of direct recycling of molding sand, and realizes high-performance green casting of complex castings. In this paper, the liquid-solid phase transition mechanism of the binder for additive manufacturing of frozen sand mold and the change law of the normal temperature field and phase transition field of the pre-cooled powder bed porous medium at different temperatures are studied, and the process window of additive manufacturing of frozen sand mold is obtained, which provides a new green casting method for the foundry field.
