ABSTRACT:
A method for the production of a cast component comprising the steps of:1) providing a molten metal mass in a casting mold and exposing the casting mold to a cooling environment thereby creating a solidification interface between molten metal regions and solidified metal regions, and2) applying at least one focused energy source either to a portion of the filled casting mold to control a temperature gradient near the solidification interface.
