High Lead Bronze - Sand and Centrfugal Casting
High Lead Bronze - Sand and Centrfugal Casting
(OP)
We are a bronze foundry located at Turkey Kocaeli.
We have been having trouble casting of High Lead bronze in both centrifugal and sand casting, even thou we try to cool the casting with high pressure water and etc, no matter what we do in sand casting inside diameters we have lead sweating prematurely casuing defects.
However on centrifugal casting we have problem on the outside diameter lead building up like a 2 mm shell. If anyone here is experienced such an issue, please advice on casting temperature or application of lead to the furnace or other things you might think of. Thanks in advance..

we had a case the other day where the lead was about 2% lower than the bottom of a 400mm casting just from the gravity effects it allways tends to settle to the bottom. chilling and homogenizing by mixing or metallurgy are good paths to try.
