The Impact of Process Factors on Creating Defects, Mainly Lustrous Carbon, during the Production of Ductile Iron Using the Lost-Foam Casting (LFC) Method

The purpose of this paper was to analyze the process factors affecting the occurrence of lustrous carbon defects in ductile cast iron castings when using the lost-foam casting (LFC) method. This phenomenon results in creating raw surface defects, which sometimes may even lead to cast iron scrapping....
