Manufacturing Process of Specimen

The specimen is a way of displaying the predetermined shapes and dimensions to perform tests that aim at reflection on the various properties of the material used, such as flow limit, if it is, trend graph and etc ...

The establishment of  characteristics of the aluminum that will be used in the rivets, will be necessary for the preparation of the team's specimen. This way we will obtain data that will indicate the strength and ductility / hardness of the material.

The process chosen for this manufacturing will be the green sand, considering the cost benefit and the fact that we do not prioritize surface finish and dimensional tolerances, when compared to other casting processes such as with metal mold or Shell Molding.

In order for this foundry to be carried out, the team acquired the following materials:

White sand;

Clay;

Aluminum;

Paper movie;

Test specimen model;

Casting box;

Casting Furnace;

PPE materials.
