"Net Shape" technologies suitable for castings
Bartoš, Filip ; Zemčík, Ladislav (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
This thesis has the task to gather basic information about the technologies used in the manufacture of finished castings, i.e. without further processing, the so-called "Net-Shape". It is focused on technology investment pattern, the combustible model shell casting "Croning“, die casting pressure, die casting to ingot and centrifugal casting. All these technologies are compared in terms of specific features, range use, production economy, the advantages, disadvantages, the resulting quality of castings and other important factors.

Present state of investment casting technology
Mazůrek, Tomáš ; Zemčík, Ladislav (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The bachelor’s thesis elaborated within the scope of full-time study of specialization B-STI Mechanical Engineering is dealing with procedures and methods of production castings using the lost wax casting technology. This literature review deals with the entire production process from casting molds for the production models to the ultimate control of manufactured parts and is structured exactly as the technological process in the manufacture of components. For each of the technological process are given commonly used procedures and new technologies that are developed and are now examined. The second part is specific examples of the use of technology investment pattern at present. The aim of this work is to create a bibliographic search, describing the evolution of technology, investment pattern and its possible use today.

Investment casting of gamma TiAl intermetallics
Zemčík, L. ; Dlouhý, Antonín
The paper deals with the physical and chemical analyses of the above processes and gives their evaluation based on the results of experimental melts of the type of Ti48Al2Cr2Nb1B (at.%) obtained in vacuum induction furnace. In present study introduces a 1D model of heat flow in the system composed of a TiAl intermetallic casting, a ceramic shell mould and the vacuum furnace environment. Furthermore, a coupled 1D model of thermal strain evolves in the casting ů mould system during cooling to room temperature is also presented. The parametric study aimed at the minimization of thermal stresses provided optimum process parameters used later in investment casting of TiAl turbocharger wheels. The semi-optimized initial mould temperatures and cooling kinetics resulted in macroscopically sound castings that were free of misruns, macrocracks and internal porosity.
