Abstract

To achieve defect-free casting (soundness casting) with a minimal amount of shrinkage porosity, refinement during the casting process is necessary. In the gravity die casting process, there are parameters that lead to product defects, especially in the casting design, focusing on the gating system and feeder system as pathways for the flow of molten metal to supply the molten metal into the mold cavity. This research was conducted to examine the effect of adding feeder dimensions on shrinkage porosity, specifically on Al-Si piston products with a Silicon content of 12-13%. Feeder dimensions were varied in nine variations by adding height and width to the feeder gate, initially measuring 90mm in height and 32mm in width, along with the addition of insulation to the feeder to retain the heat of the casting process. Cooling used water and argon, with water placed at the center core and pin core and argon placed on the outer mold, with a solidification time of 150 seconds and pouring time of 3 seconds considered constant. This study used a Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) approach, namely MagmaSoft or the application of software to model the gravity casting system process. The results showed the lowest percentage of shrinkage at feeder dimensions of 114mm in height and 45mm in width with a mold temperature of 220°C was 0.76% of the product

Abstract

Freeze vacuum drying process is an optimum process to dry the product without changing the physical and chemical properties of materials. The advantages of drying with freeze vacuum drying are can be maintain the structures, nutrient, and colors of original substances. A weakness of freeze vacuum drying is its high consumption of energy due to the long drying time required especially in the process of sublimation below triple point condition. The aim of this research areto optimizing freeze vacuum drying in order to reducing energy consumption by utilized waste heat of condenser to speed up the sublimation process and by using quick drying method. Thefreezing temperatures in this study were 6° C and 9° C with a variation of the drying time is 1, 2 and 4 hours. This research was result the water content losses in yam bean are 78% at a freeze temperature -9° C with drying time 4 hours.
