high pressure die casting

Fundição injectada de alta pressão em alumínio

O alumínio líquido é introduzido na cavidade de fundição a alta velocidade e sob alta pressão, e o metal ou liga é solidificado sob pressão para formar um método de fundição. A pressão normalmente utilizada na fundição sob pressão é de 4-500MPa, e a velocidade de enchimento do metal é de 0,5-120m/s. Por conseguinte, o tempo de enchimento do metal fundido é muito curto, e a cavidade pode ser preenchida em cerca de 0,01-0,2 segundos (dependendo do tamanho da peça fundida).

aluminum low pressure die casting

Fundição injectada de baixa pressão em alumínio

Sob a ação da pressão do gás, o alumínio metálico líquido sobe ao longo do tubo ascendente para o jito, entra suavemente na cavidade através da entrada e mantém a pressão do gás na superfície do líquido no cadinho até que a fundição esteja totalmente solidificada. Em seguida, a pressão do gás na superfície do líquido é libertada, permitindo que o metal fundido não solidificado no tubo ascendente flua de volta para o cadinho.

gravity die casting parts

Fundição de alumínio por gravidade

O alumínio fundido da fundição por gravidade é geralmente despejado no portão, e a cavidade é preenchida pelo peso próprio do metal fundido, exaurido, resfriado e o molde é aberto para obter a amostra.

O que é a fundição injectada de alumínio?

The aluminum alloy die-casting process is an efficient and precision casting process that injects high-temperature, high-pressure liquid metal into the casting mold to quickly cool it and form aluminum alloy parts with good mechanical properties and surface quality.

For aluminum castings, there are three main casting processes:

  • pressure casting
  • gravity casting
  • Extrusion casting

The whole casting process can be summarized into the following steps:

  • Aluminum/aluminum alloy melting
  • model making
  • Casting solidifies
  • molding
  • Clean.

Three aluminum casting processes are introduced below:

  1. Pressure casting, referred to as die casting, refers to the process of instantly injecting molten aluminum or aluminum alloy into the casting cavity of a mold under the action of external forces other than gravity. Pressure casting can be further subdivided into vacuum casting, centrifugal casting, low-pressure casting, pressure casting, and casting that relies on the pressure of the die-casting machine.
  2. Gravity casting refers to the process in which molten aluminum or aluminum alloy flows into the casting cavity of the mold by its own gravity. Gravity casting can be refined into the sand casting process and hard mold casting process.The sand casting process is very suitable for single-piece or mass production of aluminum castings because the mold materials used are cheap and easy to obtain, and the process method is relatively simple. Therefore, it can be said to be the “basic operation” in the aluminum casting manufacturing process.The hard mold casting process is also called the metal mold casting process. It is a process in which liquid aluminum or liquid aluminum alloy is injected into the metal casting mold and the casting is obtained after cooling and solidification. Metal molds are usually made of higher-strength aluminum alloys or other hard metals and can be used repeatedly. The entire process can be understood as injection molding.
  3. The squeeze casting process is also called the liquid die forging process. The specific process is to pour aluminum or aluminum alloy in the molten state directly into the open mold, and then seal the mold to allow the liquid aluminum or aluminum alloy to flow into the mold. The flow is filled to the shape outside the mold, and then high pressure is applied to the mold to cause plastic deformation of the solidified aluminum/aluminum alloy in the mold. The unsolidified aluminum/aluminum alloy will undergo high-pressure solidification while undergoing isostatic pressure and finally form aluminum/aluminum alloy castings.

For now, the above manufacturing processes for aluminum castings are the most commonly used in the industry and are relatively low-cost. In addition to the above-mentioned, there are also ceramic casting, plaster casting, and other technologies.

In addition, when aluminum castings are manufactured, the surface of the mold cavity used has a high smoothness and is also sprayed with a refractory coating made of refractory materials and high-temperature adhesives, so the surface of the aluminum castings produced is also very smooth and flat. , superior to other ordinary metal castings. This also gives aluminum castings a very significant advantage – the surface is smooth and the castings are high-precision, so the workload can be reduced during processing operations, but at the same time, there is not much machining allowance for those small and precise parts. The aluminum/aluminum alloy castings produced in this way do not require machining and can be used simply by grinding and polishing the remaining parts, which greatly saves processing time and labor costs, and also saves a lot of pure aluminum/aluminum alloy raw materials.

What is the best aluminum for die casting?

Die-cast aluminum alloy is a cast aluminum alloy material, which is characterized by good fluidity, low price, corrosion resistance, low density, easy to oxidize, easy to corrode, easy to produce pores, low melting point, etc. The aluminum alloy material of each model is also different.
A356 has the highest conductivity, and the lowest is A380 and ADC12.
A380 and ADC12 have the highest tensile limit, while A356 has the lowest
A360 has the best yield strength
LM5 has the highest elongation rate
ADC12 performs well in all aspects, is relatively balanced, has no outstanding features and has no shortcomings. It is a material commonly used in the cast aluminum industry. 80% of MINDWELL’s products use ADC12. The products produced by this material have strong bearing capacity and mechanical strength. It has high performance, good cutting performance, good demoulding performance, high casting pass rate, is especially friendly to thin-walled parts, and can meet the requirements of high-performance aluminum alloy die castings.

How much does aluminium die casting cost?

The cost of aluminum die castings mainly includes the following parts:

  • Aluminum alloy material cost: Depending on the size and weight of the die-casting, a certain amount of aluminum alloy material needs to be consumed. This cost is related to factors such as the model, quality, and market price of the aluminum alloy.
  • Mold making costs: Aluminum die-casting molds require sophisticated design and production, so the cost of this part is relatively high.
  • Die casting processing costs: including die casting, cooling, demoulding, trimming and other processes.
  • Other costs: including equipment depreciation, management costs, transportation costs, etc.

Taking into consideration the above expenses, the cost of aluminum die-casting parts will vary depending on factors such as model, specification, material, etc. Generally speaking, the cost of aluminum die-casting parts ranges from tens to hundreds of yuan. The specific cost needs to be calculated based on actual conditions and specific production processes.

Aluminum alloy die casting design

Aluminum alloy die casting design guide

The reasonableness of the design of die casting is related to the entire die casting molding process, in the design of die casting, should give full consideration to the structural characteristics of the die casting, die casting process requirements, try to minimize the occurrence of defects of the design of die casting in the die casting molding process, in order to the optimal design scheme to maximize the improvement of the quality of the die casting.

Reasonable design die casting wall thickness

  1. Aluminum alloy die-casting structure design should give full consideration to wall thickness, wall thickness is of special significance in the die-casting process, wall thickness, and the whole process specification have a close relationship, such as the calculation of filling time, the selection of the speed of the inner gate, the calculation of solidification time, the analysis of the mold temperature gradient, the role of the pressure (the final pressure), the length of time to stay in the mold, casting ejector temperature and operating efficiency;
  2. Designing the wall thickness too thick will result in external surface defects such as shrinkage holes, sand holes, air holes, coarse internal grains, etc., which will make the mechanical properties decrease and the quality of the part increase resulting in higher costs;
  3. Design wall thickness is too thin will cause poor filling of aluminum liquid, and molding difficulties, so the aluminum alloy dissolution is not good, easy to appear casting surface filling difficulties, lack of material and other defects, and the die casting process brings difficulties;
  4. Die casting with the increase of air holes, internal air holes, shrinkage holes, and other defects, so in order to ensure that the casting has enough strength and stiffness under the premise, should try to reduce the casting wall thickness and keep the cross-section of the thickness of uniformity.

Reasonable design of die-casting reinforcement

For large plane or thin wall die casting, its strength, and rigidity are poor, and easy to deform, then the use of a reinforcing bar can effectively prevent the die casting shrinkage, and fracture, eliminate deformation, enhance the strength and rigidity of the die casting, for too high columns, tables and other structures, can use reinforcing bar to improve the distribution of stress conditions, to prevent the root of the fracture, and at the same time reinforcing bar can assist in the flow of melted metal to improve the casting of the filler performance.
Reinforcement of the root thickness is not greater than the thickness of the wall here, the general thickness is designed for 0.8 ~ 2.0mm; reinforcement of the mold release slope is generally designed for 1 ° ~ 3 °, the higher the design of the mold release slope is smaller; reinforcement of the root need to add rounded corners, in order to avoid sharp changes in the cross-section of the part, and at the same time to assist in the flow of molten metal to reduce stress concentration in the parts, to enhance the strength of the parts, rounded corners are generally close to the wall thickness here; Reinforcement height is generally not more than 5 times its thickness, reinforcement thickness is generally required to be uniform, if the design is too thin, reinforcement itself is easy to fracture, if too thick, it is easy to produce depression, porosity, and other defects.

Reasonable design die-casting mold slope

The role of die casting mold slope is to reduce the casting and mold cavity friction, easy to take out the casting; Ensure that the die-casting surface is not strained, and at the same time extend the life of the mold. Die casting slope and the height of the die casting, the greater the height, the smaller the slope of the mold. In general, the outer surface of the die-casting mold out of the slope for the inner cavity out of the mold slope of about 1/2, but in the actual design, can be die-casting inside and outside the surface of the mold out of the slope design for the same, in order to maintain a uniform wall thickness, simplify the structural design.

Reasonable design processing allowance

Die casting design should try to avoid machining, machining will destroy the surface of the parts of the dense layer, affecting the mechanical properties of the parts; will make the die casting of the internal pores exposed, affecting the surface quality, but also increase the cost of parts. Die casting can’t avoid machining, one should try to avoid the design of large cutting amounts, and structural design as much as possible to facilitate the machine or reduce the machine area, to reduce the cost of the machine.

Die casting on the part of the higher dimensional accuracy requirements, or some plane surface roughness requirements, die casting process is difficult to meet the requirements, this time it is necessary to carry out subsequent processing, on this part of the structure, the design should try to reserve machining allowance. Die casting surface strength, hardness than the internal high, machining should pay attention to retain the surface of the densification, so the machining allowance can not be excessive allowance, machine plus too much is likely to produce porosity and external surface defects.

Aluminum alloy die casting spraying design

Die casting surface coating design generally uses a powder spraying process, the principle of electrostatic powder spraying: mainly through the electrode will paint polarization, and then the object to be sprayed with the opposite charge, in the electric field force under the action of the powder uniformly attached to the surface of the object. Powder spraying process features: powder electrostatic spraying does not cause air pollution, powder can be recycled to reduce the cost of material consumption, film performance acid, alkali, corrosion resistance is good.
