Effects of Ingate types on Some Mechanical Properties of Cast Aluminium 6063 Alloy

Shittu M. D.*, Owolabi B. M, Ibitoye S. A, Olawale J. O.

This study examined the effects of inner-gate (ingate) types on some mechanical properties of cast aluminium 6063  (Al-Mg-Si) alloy. In this work, rods of aluminium 6063 alloy were cast using top gating, bottom gating and parting  line gating designs. Ingot of 6063 aluminium alloy was melted using crucible furnace and poured into already pre pared ...
