Casting Yield Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Casting Yield = Actual Mass of Casting/Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould
Y = W_a/W_m
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Casting Yield - Casting Yield is the ratio of actual casting mass to total metal mass.
Actual Mass of Casting - (Measured in Kilogram) - Actual Mass of Casting is the measured weight of the finished cast metal component.
Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould is the mass of metal poured in mould.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Actual Mass of Casting: 14.45 Kilogram --> 14.45 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould: 17 Kilogram --> 17 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Y = W_a/W_m --> 14.45/17

Evaluating ... ...

Y = 0.85

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.85 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.85 <-- Casting Yield

Y = W_a/W_m

what is casting yield?

The casting yield is the proportion of the actual casting mass, W, to the mass of metal poured into the mould.
All the metal that is used while pouring is not finally ending up as a casting. There will be some losses in the melting. Also, there is a possibility that some castings may be rejected because of the presence of various defects. On completion of the casting process, the gating system used is removed from the solidified casting and re-melted to be used again as raw material.

How to Calculate Casting Yield?

Casting Yield calculator uses Casting Yield = Actual Mass of Casting/Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould to calculate the Casting Yield, Casting yield is a measure used in manufacturing, particularly in the foundry industry, to determine the efficiency of the casting process. It represents the ratio of the weight of the finished cast product to the total weight of the molten metal poured into the mold. Casting Yield is denoted by Y symbol.

How to calculate Casting Yield using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Casting Yield, enter Actual Mass of Casting (W_a) & Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould (W_m) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Casting Yield calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.85 = 14.45/17.

FAQ

What is Casting Yield?

Casting yield is a measure used in manufacturing, particularly in the foundry industry, to determine the efficiency of the casting process. It represents the ratio of the weight of the finished cast product to the total weight of the molten metal poured into the mold and is represented as Y = W_a/W_m or Casting Yield = Actual Mass of Casting/Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould. Actual Mass of Casting is the measured weight of the finished cast metal component & Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould is the mass of metal poured in mould.

How to calculate Casting Yield?

Casting yield is a measure used in manufacturing, particularly in the foundry industry, to determine the efficiency of the casting process. It represents the ratio of the weight of the finished cast product to the total weight of the molten metal poured into the mold is calculated using Casting Yield = Actual Mass of Casting/Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould. To calculate Casting Yield, you need Actual Mass of Casting (W_a) & Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould (W_m). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Actual Mass of Casting & Total Mass of Metal Poured in Mould and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
