Abstract:Sikorsky has developed a specification outlining the use of three casting technologies: simulation, additive manufacturing of the mold and low pressure casting. This specification has been used in the past on new development projects with positive results, reducing lead times and number of pours to produce a useable part. When the S-92 program needed to develop a second source for a casting, they worked with Magellan Aerospace to implement the specification. The project proceeded on time with all castings able… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
