8:05 a.m. – 9:05 a.m. Keynote Address: Lessons from The Miracle on The Hudson Keynote Speaker: Jeff Skiles, Co-Pilot US Airways Flight 1549 When you’re a pilot and both your engines fail over the
largest city in America, you must act quickly and independently, but you must also trust in the system that has trained you and prepared you to handle such crisis moments. Jeff Skiles’ story of the “Miracle on the Hudson” would not have the perfect ending if not for years of training and preparation that allowed the two pilots to understand exactly what the other was doing – thus maximizing their time, communication, and effectiveness.

10:15 a.m. – 10:45 a.m. Process Cycle Time Analysis and Optimisation for Efficient Vacuum Precision IC Furnaces Iñaki Vicario, Consarc Engineering, Booth No. 324 The production of advanced superalloy components for
applications in aerospace, power generation, automotive etc industries is accomplished in Vacuum Precision Investment Casting (VPIC) furnaces. Consarc recognises the technical and commercial importance involved in optimising modern VPIC operation efficiency, and apply these to their state of art VPIC furnace technologies. The Vacuum Precision Investment Casting process
includes many activities to perform a complete casting cycle. There are many sensitive and complex operations, including: mould loading into the furnace, mould pump down stage, mould raise to heating/pouring position, mould heating (DSSX process), liner and ingot loading, alloy melting, mould pouring, casted mould unloading and used liner removal. Among each of these operations, there are many subtasks that should be identified, analysed and optimised. Proper cycle process time analysis enables a view of
the time consumption of each process stage, and the best synchronisation strategies to avoid wasted time and ensure the fastest cycle time is achieved. This work will show how furnace design principles can
permit the operator to achieve the fastest, most productive, most efficient, and reliable casting process.
