In the mold manufacturing process, we use high-strength steel as the mold material to ensure the stability and durability of the mold. During the manufacturing process, the design drawings are strictly followed to ensure that the mold’s accuracy and size meet the requirements. At the same time, the mold was heat treated and surface treated to improve the mold’s hardness and wear resistance.
Die casting production:
After the mold manufacturing is completed, die-casting production begins. During the die casting process, the metal liquid flows into the mold through the flow channel, and then solidifies under high pressure into the casting. During the production process, injection pressure, injection speed, mold temperature and other parameters are controlled to ensure that the metal liquid can fill the mold evenly and fully. At the same time, post-processing is performed on the castings, such as cleaning, grinding, polishing, etc., to improve the finish and precision of the castings.
Die casting FAQ
What is die casting and how does it work?
Die casting is a widely used manufacturing process that involves the production of metal parts through the injection of molten metal into a mold cavity, known as a die. This process is highly efficient and allows for the production of complex and precise parts with excellent dimensional accuracy.
The die casting process typically involves the following steps:
- Clamping: The two halves of the die, known as the cover die and ejector die, are securely clamped together.
- Injection: Molten metal, usually an alloy of aluminum, zinc, or magnesium, is injected under high pressure into the die cavity through a gate.
- Cooling: The molten metal quickly solidifies and takes the shape of the die cavity. Cooling channels within the die help expedite the solidification process.
- Ejection: Once the metal has solidified, the two halves of the die are separated, and the newly formed part is ejected.
Trimming and - Finishing: The part may undergo additional processes such as trimming, deburring, and surface finishing to achieve the desired final product.
There are two main types of die casting:
- Hot Chamber Die Casting: In this process, the injection system is immersed in the molten metal, eliminating the need for a separate furnace. This method is commonly used for alloys with low melting points, such as zinc.
- Cold Chamber Die Casting: In this process, the molten metal is ladled into a separate injection chamber before being injected into the die cavity. This method is suitable for alloys with high melting points, such as aluminum and magnesium.
結論
Die casting is a versatile and efficient manufacturing process that enables the production of high-quality metal parts with exceptional precision. With its numerous advantages and wide-ranging applications, die casting continues to be a preferred choice for manufacturers across various industries.
What are the common challenges in die casting?
There are indeed some common challenges with the die casting process, and below I’ll go over them in more detail and how to deal with them.
1. pores
Porosity is one of the common defects in the die casting process. It is usually caused by insufficient fluidity or insufficient filling of the metal liquid. Porosity can lead to reduced strength and corrosion resistance in the casting, and in some cases, the pores can even serve as the starting point for cracks.
To reduce porosity, you can take the following steps:
Optimize the mold design to ensure smooth flow channels and reduce the flow resistance of metal liquid.
Control the temperature and fluidity of the metal liquid to ensure that the metal liquid can fully flow and fill the mold.
Adjust the injection pressure and speed so that the metal liquid can fill the mold cavity more fully.
2. Shrink
Shrinkage is another common challenge during the die casting process. Metal liquid will shrink during the cooling and solidification process. If the shrinkage is not controlled properly, it may cause dimensional deviation, deformation and other problems of castings.
To control shrinkage, the following measures can be taken:
Optimize the mold design to make the heat conduction between the mold and the casting more uniform and reduce the difference in shrinkage of each part of the casting.
Control the cooling rate and temperature gradient of the metal liquid to reduce the shrinkage of the casting.
Dimensional measurements and adjustments are made during the production process to ensure that the casting dimensions meet the requirements.
3. Quality control
In order to cope with these challenges, it is very important to establish a strict quality control system. This includes:
Develop detailed quality standards and operating procedures to ensure that every employee is aware of their responsibilities and requirements.
Regularly inspect and maintain equipment and processes to ensure their stability and reliability.
Collect and analyze data during the production process to identify problems and take corresponding measures for improvement.
In short, there are indeed some challenges in the die-casting process, but by optimizing the mold design, controlling the flow and cooling of the metal liquid, and establishing a strict quality control system, these challenges can be effectively dealt with and the quality and production efficiency of the die-casting products can be improved.
