Ceramic SiC-Cooling-Mass KERAMFORM F3

The necessity to accelerate the solidification of a casting is well known, sometimes to get a compact structure and sometimes to get a higher hardness. In former times it was usual to use cast iron chills but today ceramic SiC-Cooling-Plates (SiC-Chills) showed their superior, also on the economic side. For castings with complicated constructions it is very difficult to use these SiC-Chills, because of their fixed rectangular dimensions.

It was the practice, who demanded the developing of the mouldable ceramic SiC-Cooling-Mass KERAMFORM F3, which has the advantage, compared with the ceramic SiC-Cooling-Plates, thet it can be used independent on the profile of the casting.

The cooling effect depends extreme on the intensity of the compaction and the thickness of the used material. In any case, the cooling effect is less in comparison with a baked SiC-Cooling-Plate. Anyway more important is, that KERAMFORM F3 will bring a emphatic local compaction of the casting.

KERAMFORM F3 decomposits after the casting procss, without having any influence on the moulding sand system. It can be used with cold-setting-resin or waterglas / CO₂-process.

Two sampledrawings should illustrade the use of KERAMFORM F3 for thick-walled castings. The most important fact was to avoid porosity in the casting, as it happend before.

KERAMFORM F3

can be used as a core	or as a part of the mould
