The influence of the gating system configuration and the shape of the reaction chamber, the degree of spheroidisation cast iron was examined. Research has shown that the, optimal of master alloy amount of 1.5% by mass on casting iron. The degree of spheroidisation is also influenced by the gating system configuration. The best spheroidisation effect was obtained for liquid cast iron was fed into the reaction chamber from the bottom and discharged from the top.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Optimization of Master Alloy Amount and Gating System Design for Ductile Cast Iron Obtain in Lost Foam Process}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/87508/PDF/08_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/afe-2013-0056}, keywords={Innovative casting technologies, Ductile iron, Inmold method, Lost foam casting}, }
