Abstract: It is important to improve materials property for the application in engineering fields. In pharmaceutical industries, there are different materials used for different purposes collected from foreign countries whereas the factory uses machine in Bangladesh. In pharmaceutical industries, crimping machine is used at Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) plant to crimp body and head part of the aluminium can. For this, Clamp Sleeve is used as the part of crimping mechanism which was purchased from foreign countries. Due to the continuous action of the clamp sleeve to the crimping tong the inner surface of the clamp sleeve get corroded and also due to surface roughness the pressure of the clamp sleeve to the crimping tong is not uniform, for which it is unable to provide desire shape crimping quality. The clamp sleeve is replaced frequently whenever the crimping appearance fails to meet compliance. Clamp Sleeve Spare parts has been arranged or purchased from the foreign countries like Switzerland whi

Abstract: Production of particle reinforced composites is still in the development stage and investigations are in progress to devise techniques to uniformly distribute the reinforcing particles in the matrix so as to get the best properties. The cause of non-uniform distribution is the density difference and non-wetting behavior of the liquid metal and the particles. Random rotation of the mold is used in the present study to distribute redmud particles in an aluminum matrix. Red mud is a waste produced in the production of alumina and unless disposed properly cause environmental problems. A laboratory ball mill used for mineral processing was modified to suit the requirement. The castings were made in the ball mill with the molds rotating randomly. The microstructure of the samples showed uniform distribution of particles in the matrix. Variants in the mold designs tried and microstructures obtained are reported in the paper. It is observed that upto 25% of redmud can be added to aluminium suc
