When manufacturing die casting mold, generally, the casting layout design should be considered based on the relation among injection system, casting condition, gate system, and cooling system. Also, the extent or the location of product defects was differentiated according to the various relations of the above conditions. In this research, in order to optimize casting design of an automobile part (Gear Box) Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) was performed by using the simulation software (ZَCast). The simulation results were analyzed and compared with experimental results. During the mold filling, internal porosities caused by air entrap were predicted and reduced remarkably by the modification of the gate system and the configuration of overflow. With the solidification analysis, internal porosities caused by the solidification shrinkage were predicted and reduced by the modification of the gate system. For making a better production dieَcasting tool, cooling systems on several thick areas are proposed in order to reduce internal porosities caused by the solidification shrinkage.

In this research, in order to optimizing casting design of an automobile part (Gear Box) Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) was performed by using the simulation software (Z-Cast). the simulation results were analyzed and compared with experimental results.

When manufacturing die casting mold, generally, the casting layout design should be considered based on the relation between injection systems, casting condition, gating system, and cooling system. Also, the extent or the location of product defects will be differentiated according to the various relations of the above conditions. High-qualified products can be manufactured as those defects are controled by the proper modifications or the changes of die casting mold with the conditions. In this research, the proper manufacturing method intensively be derived for reducing the defect of the internal porosities issues of power steering which is very complicated to achieve the mold design, and for minimizing and for guaranteeing the product quality through the analysis of the problem of casting parts and the deduction of alternative plans.

Business processes are often of long duration, and include internal worker's decision making, which makes business processes to be exposed to many exceptional situations. These properties of business processes makes it difficult to guarantee successful termination of business processes at the design phase. The behavioral properties of business processes mainly depends on the data aspects of business processes. To formalize the data aspect of process modeling, this paper proposes a graph-based model, called Data Dependency Graph (DDG), constructed from dependency relationships specified between business data. The paper also defines a mechanism of describing a set of mapping rules that generates a process model semantically equivalent to a DDG, which is accomplished by allocating data dependencies to component activities.

The speed at which products are developed and released to market is tightly linked to profitability and market share. Hence, many companies are still in a desperate need of real Rapid Tooling (RT) technologies which can really help to expedite their prototype tooling and pre -production tooling for injection molding. Many other companies that have been very skeptical of RT technologies developed so far are working on Hybrid Tooling (HT) that can really meet the market standards. With the conviction that HT can be a reliable alternative for current RT technologies, this paper describes the experimentation how HT process has been being successfully established and effectively applied with typical case studies. Through the experimentation, Ceramic-filled HT was found to be aptly suited for the low grade mold, and Metal HT was found to be aptly suited for the medium volume mold both in terms of the lead time, dimensional accuracy, and tooling cost.
