The Task of the Computer Technology Construction for Thermal Processes Modeling of
Foundry Production

Introduction. An analysis of modern software for computer simulation of processes in the field of metal molding and the methods which are the basis of software products is executed. The results of the analysis are planned to be used when creating the computer technology of simulation of the thermal processes in the field of the foundry, which will be oriented on Ukrainian industries, simplify the process of obtaining the casting, resulting in an increase in the volume of production, reduce the appearance of defects in casting products during the technological process to make them more competitive.

Having made an overview of the processes and methods of casting and stopping attention to the detailed consideration of the method of casting in the sandy form, we can draw the following conclusions.

      Results. The advantages of the molding method in sand forms are: the possibility of manufacturing castings of high weight; manufacturing of castings of complex forms; ability to automate production; castings are made from cast alloys, besides refractory that allows using scrap in remelting; the cheap cost of receiving castings.

      The disadvantages include the following: the roughness of the surface which requires further treatment of castings and leads to a large amount of waste; the probability of occurrence of defects is greater than in other methods of casting; bad sanitary conditions of production.

      Although sand casting technology has certain disadvantages, it still remains one of the most used casting technologies in the world due to the possibility of creating any shape of various sizes at a low price. Therefore the importance of creating a computer technology that will take into account all the comments and help is obvious.

     The problem of the permanent creation of a form for pouring can be solved by constructing a modelling technology of forms with parameters that will allow you to get the most accurate form for casting which will not be able to minimize the time and forces for the finished product.

     Conclusion.  Solving the problem of using a press form only once is possible by creating technology of modelling with the parameters that will allow you to get the most accurate form for the casting. This minimizes the time and effort for processing the finished product.
