Most aluminum foundries know how to use the reduced pressure tester to control hydrogen and oxide removal from the melt. The spectrometer is to control chemistry variations. On the other hand, thermal analysis of the melt has been regarded as not repeatable or not worth implementing because of a perceived lack of value or shop-floor readiness.

François Audet from Foundry Solutions Metallurgical Services Inc. is ready to convince you otherwise. Mark your calendars to learn all about using thermal analysis for expensive non-ferrous metal castings to identify the root cause of many casting defects, validate the melt treatment and record/correct melt variations, and to quality new ingots based on metallurgy to avoid problems, not just chemistry.

About François: François Audet is a melt control engineer. In 2015, he graduated from University Laval in beautiful Québec City. He co-founded Foundry Solutions Metallurgical Services Inc. the same year based in Québec and which he still manages. François runs casting simulations every week and is always on the shop-floor looking for ways to improve the process.
