Dimensional stability of investment Al castings
Úředníček, Lukáš ; Cileček, Jarmil (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The aim of this paper is to compare a bottom filling of a ceramic form made by lost wax process and a top filling conventional method. A computer simulation of filling and casting solidification will contribute to this comparison. The comparison includes evaluation of readings DAS and characteristic readings of porosity with chosen varieties of casting. The results show that the readings DAS did not change much but characteristic readings of porosity were much better at bottom filling. The computer simulation also showed a certain contribution in the field of model smelting technology.

Verification of the original technologies used for art castings
Hřebíček, Lukáš ; Mrázek, Martin (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
This diploma thesis is describing making of the same art casting by using different foundry technologies/ moulds (ceramic shell mould, several types of plaster moulds including anhydride gypsum and also natural sand mould). In this thesis there is also description of casting the famous piece of bull from “Byci skala” (Bull Rock). The bull was cast into traditional clay mould which is believed to be the original technology. Also the original shape of the bull casting was reconstructed, i.e. a copy of the original bull casting made. As the main achievement of this work is an overview and comparison of several technologies suitable for making art castings.

Dimensional accuracy of Al castings manufactured by lost wax process
Kučera, Tomáš ; Vašťák, Patrik (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The aim of my diploma thesis was to find the possibilities of reaching the dimensional tolerance in the individual phases of casting by the investment casting process. The accuracy of the selected wax patterns and castings were measured by a caliper. At first the selected dimensions of the wax models were measured right after taking them out of the mold and then they were measured during seven days. The castings were measured after pouring. The obtained figures were statistically evaluated. The results show that the large-scale and thick-wall wax model should be coated after seven days of stabilization because the dimensions of the wax model are not stable.

Actual trends in manufacture of ceramic shell moulds
Štipl, Pavel ; Vašťák, Patrik (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
This thesis deals with the current trends in the production of ceramic shell moulds. The first part describes the history of investment casting, their use and an overview of world production. In the following parts is out of print the production process of ceramic shell mould using contemporary materials and technologies. The final section describes the defects associated with the production of ceramic shell moulds. The aim of this work is to create a literature search focused on raw materials and processes used to create a ceramic shell mould for investment casting technology.

Present state of investment casting technology
Žuja, Jaroslav ; Vašťák, Patrik (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
This thesis discusses the current methods and innovative technologies for lost wax model. The work also describes the literature search in currently used methods and also offers real insight into the future, using new methods. In the beginning is briefly discussed the history of the method, then new possibilities for technology testing and structures of wax blends and their properties. And finally, there are given opportunities and goals for the next innovation methods.

Using of RP techniques and lost wax technology for medical castings
Pavelka, Tomáš ; Joch, Antonín (referee) ; Horáček, Milan (advisor)
The goal of the diploma thesis is to verify the possibilities of obtaining the casting of the femur component of the customized knee replacement using the technology of Rapid Prototyping and investment casting. To get the wax pattern it is used the method of fabrication the silicon rubber mould. Its optimalization from the wax pattern quality, economy of production and cooling speed aspects is important parameter at repeated production of the wax patterns.
