Abstract

This paper attempts to investigate Hkb Box (A-356 aluminium alloy) manufactured by Gravity Die casting process. Main objective of this research paper is to find the most influencing parameters on hardness of gravity die casting. Taguchi Technique is a powerful and efficient method for optimizing the process, quality and performance output of manufacturing processes. Taguchi's orthogonal array method and S/N Ratio were used for experiments and it was found that Pouring Time and Pouring Temperature are the most influencing parameters to improve hardness. Finally ANOVA was used to confirm the design of experiment.
