Features:
Corrosion-resistant housing G-AlSi7Mg0,3 AC 42100 alloy
Highest function integration through use of cores which allow almost unlimited freedom of design
Best cooling throuth coarse surface of water jacket
Minimum constructed space through this walls
Initial situation at customer:
High power density in munimum constructed space
Best heat stability during the start-up
Integration of oil cooling with temperature control
Low development budget
Short time line for development
Flexibility for possible concept adjustments with low modification costs
Casting solution DGH Sand Casting:
Minimal wall thickness to reach minimum weight
Positioning of sand cores for optimal cooling through water jacket
Casting simulations to realise controlled solidification
Material selected with best corrosion resistance
Filling simulation for core boxes
Special core sand to minimize core movement
The best function integration:
Water and oil cooling in one housing integrated
Minimum constructed space through high freedom of desing in sandcasting
Facilitation for machining of stator room through cylindrical cores
Good mechanical characteristics parallel to good corrosion resistance
Lower toolings costs in comparison to permanent mold casting
Short development time due to short tooling leadtimes
