As-cast parts: fin and profile integrity

Missing material, deformation and excess material on fins, internal profiles and edges of an as-cast part.

To protect customer confidentiality, the component image has been edited using artificial intelligence and does not exactly reproduce its original geometry.

The component

The as-cast component has fins and recessed contours forming part of its intended shape. Missing material can affect a small section of a fin, deformation can change an internal profile and excess material can occur along an edge.

What we inspect

Imago checks upper and lower fins, profile deformation and internal contours in defined areas. Inspection covers feature geometry and deviations from product-format references. It concerns the shape and integrity of the casting before subsequent machining.
