Abstract
The vibratory compaction of dry sands is one of the
principal procedures for the lost foam casting (LFC)
process. The sand fills all internal pattern cavities and
packs tightly around the coated and dried foam patterns
to provide support. The pressure produced during
vibration is deemed important, since its un-even
distribution may result in undesirable deformation of the
foam pattern. Pattern deformation affects the dimensional
precision and accuracy of the castings.
