Abstract

The development of new materials such as composite castings becomes important in the advancement of engineering materials. Therefore, the effects of subjecting solidifying particulate reinforced aluminum alloy matrix composite to various sources of vibration on the resulting casting quality was investigated. A mechanical vibration technique for inducing vibration resulting in enhanced mechanical properties, such as tensile, hardness, density, impact properties and microstructure was devised. For experimental, TiC particulate reinforced aluminium LM6 alloy matrix composites are fabricated by different particulate weight fraction and microstructure studies were conducted. It is found that vibration mould during the process contributes the quality of castings. The results show that the mechanical properties of castings have been improved compared with conventional casting processes
