The presented platform is an extension of the SLAG - PROP application with new modules, which allow to use information on metallurgical processes in an even more effective way, as well as to evaluate the finished product. In addition, the construction of a measuring station for the analysis of thermal processes taking place in a metal bath allows for precise observation of phenomena together with their appropriate interpretation. The article presents not only the cooling curves of certain copper alloys. The analysis also covered mechanical properties related to hardness, finished products depending on the mold in which the products were cast. In the literature one can find information about the mechanical properties of products in the improved state, usually after plastic or thermal treatment, omitting their properties obtained as a result of a naturally made casting. The article also presents the method of placing information in the database using a convenient graphical tool.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Integrated Analytical and Measurement System for the Evaluation of the Properties of Cast Metals and Alloys}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/109224/PDF/AFE%201_2019_02.pdf}, doi={10.24425/afe.2018.125184}, keywords={solidification process, Application of information technology to the foundry industry, Brass, Hardness}, }
