An Example in Ductile Iron Casting   The Universal Joint Coupler

Option B for Positioning and Sizing the Risers

RiserB.gif (19592 bytes)
  • Option B positions and sizes the risers so that the as-cast cluster of couplers can rest on the tabs during“shake-out”, rather than on the risers. This could damage the coupler tabs, if they abrade against the support screen.
  • The four couplers on the corners are fed by only one riser each. This gives uneven metal feed into those four components.

Go back to the riser page and select an alternate design.
