Ductile iron centrifugal casting core: Saint GobainRecent Research Landscape

Mechanical failure at pipeline joints leads to costly leakage and environmental contamination. These innovations engineer the geometry and material integrity of ductile iron interfaces to ensure pressure-tight containment.

What technical problems is Saint Gobain addressing in Ductile iron centrifugal casting core?

Pipeline joint leakage and corrosion

(27)evidences

Mechanical instability and leakage at connection points in ductile iron systems. Preventing fluid loss and environmental ingress ensures long-term structural integrity of the network.

External surface corrosion degradation

(14)evidences

Physical instability and safety risks during the transport and positioning of heavy ductile iron components. Reducing human intervention in high-temperature casting environments prevents injuries and increases throughput.

Thermal mold degradation

(14)evidences

Inconsistent metal distribution during centrifugal casting leads to structural weaknesses and failure under pressure. Precise control of positioning and cooling ensures uniform mechanical integrity across the iron pipe.

Sand core extraction failure

(5)evidences

Inconsistent sand core density and mechanical instability during pouring lead to dimensional inaccuracies and surface defects in hollow iron fittings. Eliminating these defects reduces scrap rates and ensures structural integrity of high-pressure pipe components.
