Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the defects that will occur when designing a mould of disc brake by using gray cast iron as material through sand casting process. It is also study about sand casting to produce a product in the manufacturing of each product must be in accordance with specifications and quality in order to avoid products that have to be rejected. In this study, the trial and error approach has been replaced with modern technology, where simulation software is used instead to reduce the defects in casting. This project will focused on the simulation software that will run the sand casting process. Solidwork software is used in modelling and simulation software AnyCasting is used in simulating the sand casting process. The four quality characteristics that will be investigated in this study are the solidification time, shrinkage cavity, micro porosity and retained melt volume. The result of this study of the filling time at 100% filling rate for design 1 is 5.9865 seconds, for design 2 is 7.6648 seconds and for design 3 is 1.5559. The solidification time at 100% solidification rate for design 1 is 1172.8 seconds, for design 2 is 1452.6 seconds and for design 3 is 1209.3 seconds.
