The grinding efficiency in terms of material destruction and energy consumption has been studied according to a wide range of operating parameters and new scheme for calculating the sprue and supply system has been developed by the authors of the article. Its functionality has been substantiated, particularly the use of a central riser acting as a head and the use of coolers. The conducted numerical simulation has shown the dependence of a solid phase formation over time, which characterizes the direction of the system crystallization and determines the locations of the shrinkage defects concentration. The manufacture of the grinding body with a 100 mm diameter using the considered technology is presented in this paper.}, type={Article}, title={Manufacturing Scheme of Spherical Grinding Bodies from Abrasion-Resistant Cast Iron Free of Shrinkage Defects}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/110940/PDF/AFE%203_2019_11.pdf}, doi={10.24425/afe.2019.127141}, keywords={Grinding bodies, Abrasion-resistant cast irons, Shrinkage defects, Casting into single sand molds}, }
