Optimation of manufacturing technology of high value castings
Šmíd, Dušan ; Vašťák, Patrik (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The main target of this thesis is to choose the suitable hard filled wax for the invest-ment casting foundry Fimes a.s. There are several suppliers of these waxes in the World and in this work waxes of the most reputable suppliers from Europe have been investigated. During these tests there were mainly technological properties of the waxes and also dimensions of both wax patterns and also the final castings measu-red. Suitability of the tested waxes, their technological characteristics, analysis of di-mensions and finally basic economical calculations have been then used in this the-sis as a tool for the recommendation for the most suitable wax for the Fimes foundry.

RP technology using FDM method and investment casting technology
Kosour, Vojtěch ; Krutiš, Vladimír (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
An overview of the development of the Investment Casting market and Rapid Prototyping equipment is given in the introductory part of this diploma thesis. Basic methods of rapid prototyping and the FDM method are futher described in detail. The FDM method is consequently used in the practical part of this work for the preparation of the silicon mould. The largest part deals with the issue of the simulation of pouring process of wax into the silicon mould. A characteristics of the casting wax is made; the parametres, which are inserted into the simulation software ProCAST and the possibilities of their measurement are described. The process of the simulation of the mould filling and its validation with the real filling process are described in detail.

Possibilities of using modern methods in manufacturing of prototype castings
Šmíd, Jiří ; Horenský, Jiří (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The introduction part of the thesis focuses on the overview of rapid prototyping in foundry industry. Principles of the most important RP methods are described and the FDM method is analyzed in more detail. This method was used in the practical part for the production of wax patterns with silicone moulds. The wax patterns were used for the production of castings using the lost wax method. The result of this work is determination of dimensional changes during the whole process of casting manufacture from the drawing to the final casting.
