Get MoreMar 01, 2000· This can lead to "centerline shrinkage, which is a collection of shrinkage voids along a line at a relatively thin section of the casting. Since centerline shrinkage is a common failure in steel castings, proper feeding must be provided through a well-designed feeding system to manufacture sound castings.
Get MoreA riser is categorized based on three criteria: where it is located, whether it is open to the atmosphere, and how it is filled. If the riser is located on the casting then it is known as a top riser, but if it is located next to the casting it is known as a side riser.Top risers are advantageous because they take up less space in the flask than a side riser, plus they have a shorter feeding ...
