Inspection and quality control of casting in the Ajaokuta steel company’s foundry shop

Abstract

The inspection of casting has dual purpose of ensuring that the product confirms to design requirements and of providing information needed for quality control in Foundry. This paper therefore clearly looked into the two components with a view to understanding important of inspection and quality control of production processes with a view to achieving quality castings which adherence to quality control principles. The study further discuss the  importance of  using computer for inspection and quality control analysis which has become necessary particularly as regarding the prediction of solidification patterns of casting and several alternative casting methods  that can be simulated before the final method is chosen.
