Tao Jie, Liu Zili. Progress in Lost Foam Casting in the Europe and the U.S.A-Overviews on 2006 LFC Symposium in the Paderborn[J]. Special Casting & Nonferrous Alloys, 2007,(2):134-137.DOI:
The lost foam technology in the Europe and the U.S.A
including the present status of development was overviewed based on the relevant content of the 4th symposium on lost foam casting in Paderbon. The developing trend of lost foam casting was also expounded. The symposiums have four themes as follows: first
international LF market; second
design and manufacture of LF mould; third
construction and research; forth
research and application of LF. It can be concluded that great progress has been made in the investigation of the mould filling of aluminum alloy and LFC technology for magnesium alloy
and in lost foam materials and in the new methods for lost foam casting with high quality surface
