Module 2: Perform Precision Metal Casting

Course details

This course module aims at providing participants with knowledge on metal casting for achieving defect-free and appropriate mechanical property targets in a robust and environmentally-friendly. A primary objective is to improve the competency and the competitiveness of personnel in Singapore companies having in-house metal casting facilities as an integrated process in their manufacturing line or companies specialising in supplying metal casting as a commercial service especially for sand casting, pressurized casting and investment casting. A second objective is to equip industry personnel the tools to boost Singapore’s competitiveness with state-of-the-art precision metal casting processes, such as liquid forging, and the application of simulations in metal casting.

The programme scope covers metal casting processing, including the different casting methods; advanced casting methods such as liquid forging; precision casting of difficult-to-cast materials such as Ni- and Ti-based metals; design in casting; defect control in different casting methods to achieve defect-free components; and simulation in precision metal casting.
