Pattern is a model or the replica of the object to be cast. It is a larger in size as compared to the final casting, because it carries certain allowances due to metallurgical and mechanical reasons for example, shrinkage allowance is the result of metallurgical phenomenon where as machining, draft, distortion, shale, and other allowances are provided on the patterns because of mechanical reasons.

Functions of Patterns:
• A Pattern prepares a mould cavity for the purpose of making a casting.
• A Pattern may contain projections known as core prints (corazón) if the casting requires a core and need to be made hollow.
• Patterns properly made and having finished and smooth surfaces reduce casting defects.
• Properly constructed patterns minimize overall cost of the casting.
The pattern material should be:
1. 2. 3.
4.
5. 6. 7.
Easily worked,shaped and joined.
Light in weight.
Strong,hard and durable.
Resistant to wear and abrasion .
Resistant to corrosion,and to chemical
reactions.
Dimensionally stable and unaffected by
variations in temperature and humidity.
Available at low cost.

Reason for allowances:
Solidification Shrinkage
Most metals undergo
noticeable volumetric
contraction when cooled
Three principle stages of
shrinkage:
Shrinkage of liquid as it
cools from the solidification
temperature
Solidification shrinkage as
the liquid turns into solid
Solid metal contraction as
the solidified metal cools to
room temperature
Figure Dimensional changes experienced by a
metal column as the material cools from a
superheated liquid to a room-temperature solid.
Note the significant shrinkage that occurs upon
solidification.

Dimensional Allowances
Typical allowances Cast iron 0.8-1.0% Steel 1.5-2.0% Aluminum 1.0-1.3% Magnesium 1.0-1.3% Brass 1.5%
Shrinkage allowances are incorporated into the pattern using shrink rules
Thermal contraction might not be the only factor for determining pattern size
Surface finishing operations (machining, etc.) should be taken into consideration
Solidification Shrinkage
Amount of liquid metal contraction depends on the
coefficient of thermal contraction and the amount of
superheat
As the liquid metal solidifies, the atomic structure
normally becomes more efficient and significant
amounts of shrinkage can occur
Cavities and voids can be prevented by designing the
casting to have directional solidification
Hot tears can occur when there is significant tensile
stress on the surface of the casting material
Types of Pattern Allowances: THE VARIOUS PATTERN ALLOWANCES ARE:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Shrinkage or contraction allowance.
Machining or finish allowance.
Draft of tapper allowances.
Distortion or chamber allowance.
5. Shake or rapping allowance.
1.ShrinkageAllowance: All most all cast metals shrink or contract
volumetrically on cooling.
1.Liquid Shrinkage:
it refers to the reduction in volume when the metal changes from liquid state to solid state at the solidus temperature.To account for this shrinkage;riser,which feed the liquid metal to the casting,are provided in the mold.
2.Solid Shrinkage:
it refers to the reduction in volume caused when metal loses temperature in solid state.To account for this,shrinkage allowance is provided on the patterns.
Almost all cast metals shrink or contract volumetrically after solidification and therefore the pattern to obtain a particular sized casting is made oversize by an amount equal to that of shrinkage or contraction.
Different metals shrink at different rates because shrinkage is the property of the cast metal/alloy.
The metal shrinkage depends upon:
1. The cast metal or alloy.
2. Solidification temp.of the metal/alloy.
3. Casted dimensions(size).
4. Casting design aspects.
5. Molding conditions(i.e.,mould materials and molding methods employed)

2.MachiningAllowance: A CASTING IS GIVEN AN ALLOWANCE FOR MACHINING, BECAUSE: Castings get oxidized in the mold and during heat treatment;scales etc.,thus formed need to be removed. It is the intended to remove surface roughness and other imperfections from the castings. It is required to achieve exact casting dimensions.
Surface finish is required on the casting.
HOW MUCH EXTRA METAL OR HOW MUCH
MACHINING ALLOWANCE SHOULD BE
PROVIDED, DEPENDS ON THE FACTORS LISTED BELOW: Nature of metals. Size and shape of casting.

MACHINING ALLOWANCES OF
VARIOUS METALS:
3.Draft or TaperAllowance:
It is given to all surfaces perpendicular to parting line. Draft allowance is given so that the pattern can be easily removed from the molding material tightly packed around it with out damaging the mould cavity. The amount of taper depends upon:
i. Shape and size of pattern in the depth
direction in contact with the mould cavity.
ii. Moulding methods.
iii. Mould materials.
iv. Draft allowance is imparted on internal as well as external surfaces;of course it is more on internal surfaces.

Core Full-scale model of interior surfaces of part
It is inserted into the mold cavity prior to pouring
The molten metal flows and solidifies between the mold cavity and the core to form the casting's external and internal surfaces
May require supports to hold it in position in the mold cavity during pouring, called chaplets

Product Design Considerations
Draft Guidelines:
In expendable mold casting, draft facilitates removal of pattern from mold
Draft = 1 for sand casting
In permanent mold casting, purpose is to aid in removal of the part from the mold
Draft = 2 to 3 for permanent mold processes
Similar tapers should be allowed if solid cores are used

4. Distortion or cambered allowance:
A CASTING WILL DISTORT OR WRAP IF :
i. It is of irregular shape,
ii. All it parts do not shrink uniformly i.e.,some parts shrinks while others are restricted from during so,
iii. It is u or v-shape,
iv. The arms possess unequal thickness, v. It has long,rangy arms as those of propeller strut for the ship,
vi. It is a long flat casting, vii. One portion of the casting cools at a faster rate
5.Shake allowance:
A patter is shaken or rapped by striking the same
with a wooden piece from side to side.This is done so that the pattern a little is loosened in the mold cavity and can be easily removed.
In turn,therefore,rapping enlarges the mould cavity which results in a bigger sized casting.
Hence,a ²ve allowance is provided on the pattern i.e.,the pattern dimensions are kept smaller in order to compensate the enlargement of mould cavity due to rapping.
The magnitude of shake allowance can be reduced by increasing the tapper.
Pattern Layout:
Steps involved:
Get the working drawing of the part for which the pattern is to be made.
Make two views of the part drawing on a sheet,using a shrink rule. A shrink rule is modified form of an ordinary scale which has already taken care of shrinkage allowance for a particular metal to be cast. Add machining allowances as per the
requirements.
Depending upon the method of molding, provide the draft allowance.
Pattern Construction:
Study the pattern layout carefully and establish,
a. Location of parting surface.
b. No.of parts in which the pattern will be made. Using the various hand tools and pattern making machines fabricate the different parts of the pattern. Inspect the pattern as regards the alignment of different portions of the pattern and its dimensional accuracy.
Fill wax in all the fillets in order to remove sharp corners.
Give a shellac coatings(3 coats) to pattern. impart suitable colors to the pattern for identification purposes and for other informations.
Design Considerations in Castings Location and orientation of the parting line is important
to castings
Parting line can affect:
Number of cores
Method of supporting cores
Use of effective and economical gating
Weight of the final casting
Final dimensional accuracy
Ease of molding
Design Considerations
Various allowances incorporated into a
casting pattern.

incorporation of a draft allowance on vertical
surfaces.
Design Considerations
Figure 11-16 (Left) Elimination of a core by
changing the location or orientation of the
parting plane.
Figure 11-17 (Right) Elimination of a dry-
sand core by a change in part design.
Design Considerations It is often desirable to minimize the use of cores
Controlling the solidification process is important to producing quality castings
Thicker or heavier sections will cool more slowly, so chills should be used If section thicknesses must change, gradual is better
If they are not gradual, stress concentration points can be created
Fillets or radii can be used to minimize stress concentration points
Risers can also be used
Parting Line and Drafts

draft. (Top right) Part with draft unspecified. (Bottom) Various options to produce the top-
right part, including a no-draft design.
Section Thicknesses
(Above) Typical guidelines for section change transitions in castings.
Figure a) The “hot spot” at section r2 is cause by intersecting sections. B) An interior fillet and exterior
radius lead to more uniform thickness and more uniform cooling.
Design Modifications
Hot spots are areas of the material that cool more
slowly than other locations
Function of part geometry
Localized shrinkage may occur
Hot spots often result from intersecting sections of various thickness.
Design Modifications
Parts that have ribs may experience cracking due to
contraction
Ribs may be staggered to prevent cracking
An excess of material may appear around the parting
line
The parting line may be moved to improve appearance
Thin-walled castings should be designed with extra
caution to prevent cracking
Design Modifications
