Problems solved by technology

However, due to the complex structure of the exhaust manifold, it is difficult to type sand casting, there are many loose pieces of sand cores, and there are many combined sand cores, and the sand cores are completely surrounded by high-temperature molten iron, so it is difficult to discharge the gas.
Therefore, defects such as shrinkage porosity, shrinkage cavity, and porosity are prone to occur during the casting process.

Abstract

The invention belongs to a metal casting technology and particularly relates to an investment casting method of a heat-resistant steel exhaust manifold for an automobile. The method comprises the steps of wax mould manufacturing, shell manufacturing, alloy smelting, pouring, shakeout and cleaning. The method has the benefits that the common defects of partial shrinkage, hole shrinkage and the like of the heat-resistant steel exhaust manifold for an automobile engine can be eliminated or reduced, and the process yield is higher.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the metal casting technology, and in particular relates to an investment casting method which can eliminate or reduce common local shrinkage porosity and shrinkage cavity defects of automobile engine heat-resistant steel exhaust manifold castings. Background technique [0002] The automobile exhaust manifold is a component that collects the exhaust gas discharged from each cylinder of the engine and discharges it to the exhaust pipe. The structure is as follows: figure 1 , is one of the eight main components of the engine, and the efficiency of the entire exhaust system depends on the design and manufacture of the exhaust manifold. The structure of the exhaust manifold is complicated, the thickness of the pipe wall varies greatly, there are many isolated thermal joints, and it is difficult to place the riser, which brings great difficulty to the casting process. [0003] Retrieval of domestic exhaust manifold casting process p...
