摘要

This research furthers the design, development, and optimization of a Universal Centrifugal Casting Machine (UCCM) engineered to overcome the geometric and process-related limitations of conventional centrifugal casting systems. The UCCM offers flexibility through mold orientation adjustments ranging from 0° to 90°, thus facilitating improved control over the casting process and product quality. Al–Si alloy with composition close to the eutectic point (LM6) was selected as the casting material for its favorable mechanical and metallurgical properties. A comprehensive full factorial experimental design was implemented to systematically investigate the effects of the orientation of the mold, the speed of rotation, and the initial mold temperature on tensile strength. Regression analysis was used to develop predictive equations, and the desirability function approach was applied to determine the optimal casting conditions. Validation experiments confirmed the reliability of the developed model. The findings indicate that the UCCM provides significant enhancements in-process control and mechanical performance, making it suitable for scalable industrial applications.
