CONFERENCE

LIGHT-WEIGHTING OF ALUMINIUM CASTINGS

The international Conference at ALUCAST Events is primarily a vehicle to bring to the notice and attention of the die casting community topics which could have a profound impact on the industry.

Currently one of many major tasks on hand is reduction in the degradation of the earths environment, especially due to burning of fossil fuels in automobiles with the attendant emission of carbon into the atmosphere. It has been well chronicled that a 10% reduction in the vehicle weight improves fuel efciency by 7% and proportionate reduction in carbon emission and increase in payload capacity.

Use of Aluminium, Magnesium, and composite materials for castings, joining high strength steel to aluminium, or further reduction in weight of parts already made from aluminium are some of the routes by which vehicle weight can be reduced economically. The Theme of this years Conference Light weighting of Aluminium Castings was therefore appropriate and timely.

Light-weighting of aluminium castings may involve changes in the manufacturing processes, machines, materials, methods and tighter control on several parameters. Papers presented during the Conference dealt with each of the above aspects. The Conference was especially benecial to personnel engaged in vehicle design, part design, R & D, Materials procurement and purchase.

The Technical Conference was a great success. Thirteen papers, covering a wide array of technical, management and product information were presented over the six sessions. All the presentations provoked high levels of interactive Q & A sessions amongst the audience packed to capacity.
