摘要
An integrative computer aided investment casting (CAIC) technology for making complicated superalloy castings was described. Key processes of CAIC were discussed including the choice of SLS (Selectively Laser Sintering) materials, sintering parameters, solidification simulation and gating and risering system optimization. Using CAIC process, many large-sized quality superalloy castings with complicated shape and thin wall have been produced successfully and economically in Central Iron & steel Research Institute (CISRI).
