Trial Production of Compressor Body Castings Using 3D Printed Sand Mold Technology
The structure and technical requirements of nodular iron compressor body castings were introduced.A casting method that employed a mold-less production approach and utilizes 3D printing technology for rapid sand mold production was elaborated.The first sample passed verification and was delivered successfully.Finally it was pointed out:(1)Combining 3D printing technology with traditional casting significantly shortened the development and trial production cycle of new products by at least 70％compared to traditional methods.(2)3D printing technology for sand mold production was unrestricted by structure,enabling the integration of internal cores and upper sand cores into a single unit,thus reducing the number of sand cores and simplifying core assembly,effectively controlling dimensional accuracy.
