Abstract

Lost foam casting (LFC) as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly casting process.Theenergy conservation and emission reduction in foundry industry should take casting quality and technology improvements as core mission. Lost foam casting is a casting method with the use of patterns, which are not removed from the mouldbut remain in it and are gasified under the action of the heat energy of a metal being poured into the mould. It has become one of the most important casting processesfor ferrous and nonferrous metals, particularly for the automotive industry. LFC is regarded as the representative of the 21st century casting new technology.
