DGH Sand Casting wins NEWCAST Award 2019

DGH Sand Casting – E-housing with optimal function integration, possible with sandcasting
DGH Sand Casting wins NEWCAST Award 2019

Features:
 Corrosion-resistant housing G-AlSi7Mg0,3 AC 42100 alloy
 Highest function integration through use of cores which allow almost unlimited freedom of design
 Best cooling throuth coarse surface of water jacket
 Minimum constructed space through this walls

Initial situation at customer:
 High power density in munimum constructed space
 Best heat stability during the start-up
 Integration of oil cooling with temperature control
 Low development budget
 Short time line for development
 Flexibility for possible concept adjustments with low modification costs

Casting solution DGH Sand Casting:
 Minimal wall thickness to reach minimum weight
 Positioning of sand cores for optimal cooling through water jacket
 Casting simulations to realise controlled solidification
 Material selected with best corrosion resistance
 Filling simulation for core boxes
 Special core sand to minimize core movement

The best function integration:
 Water and oil cooling in one housing integrated
 Minimum constructed space through high freedom of desing in sandcasting
 Facilitation for machining of stator room through cylindrical cores
 Good mechanical characteristics parallel to good corrosion resistance
 Lower toolings costs in comparison to permanent mold casting
 Short development time due to short tooling leadtimes
