Metal casting services involve the shaping of free-flowing liquid metals through the use of dies, molds, or patterns.  Castings are generally roughly finished due to the nature of their production.  In many cases, additional finishing is required to remove burrs and other artefacts of the casting process.  Metal castings services are used to design a wide range of components and finished products.  Everything from simple nails and fasteners to engine blocks can be fabricated using metal casting services.  Common metal casting processes include sand casting, die casting, permanent mold casting, investment casting, centrifugal casting, and lost foam casting.

Sand Casting

Sand casting is used to make large parts (typically iron, but also bronze, brass, aluminum). Molten metal is poured into a mold cavity formed out of sand (natural or synthetic). Sand castings generally have a rough surface, sometimes with surface impurities and surface variations.

zinc Die Casting

zinc Die Casting

Die-casting includes a number of processes in which reusable dies or molds are used to produce casting.  The die contains an impression of the finished product together with it’s running, feeding and venting systems.  The die is capable of a regular cycle and of (quickly) dissipating the heat of the metal poured into it.  Once the liquid metal has cooled sufficiently, the mold is opened and the casting can be removed and finished.

Permanent Mold Casting

In permanent mold casting, molten metal is poured into cast iron molds, coated with a ceramic mold wash. Cores can be a metal, sand, sand shell, or other materials. When completed, the molds are opened and the castings are ejected.

 

Investment casting services involve molding patterns by the injection of a special wax into a metal die.  The patterns are assembled into a cluster around a wax runner system. The ‘tree’ of patterns is then coated with 8-10 layers of refractory material. The assembly is heated to remove the wax.  The hot mold is cast, and when cool, the mold material is removed by impact, vibration, grit blasting, high-pressure water blasting or chemical dissolution leaving the castings, which are then removed from the runner system.

Centrifugal casting

Centrifugal casting services are used to produce castings that are cylindrical in shape.  In centrifugal casting, a permanent mold is rotated about its axis at high speeds as the molten metal is poured. The molten metal is centrifugally thrown towards the inside mold wall, where it solidifies. The casting is usually a fine grain casting with a very fine-grained outer diameter, which is resistant to atmospheric corrosion, a typical need with pipes. The inside diameter has more impurities and inclusions, which can be machined away.

Lost foam casting

Lost foam casting (LFC) is metal casting services that use foam filled patterns to produce castings.  Foam is injected into a pattern, filling all areas, leaving no cavities.  When molten metal is injected into the pattern, the foam is burned off allowing the casting to take shape.

Die casting

Die casting and metal casting includes a number of processes in which reusable dies or molds are used to produce casting. The die is capable of a regular cycle and of (quickly) dissipating the heat of the metal poured into it. Once the liquid metal has cooled sufficiently, the mold or is opened and the casting can be removed and finished.

 

In the die casting process, molten metal is injected under pressure into a reusable mold or die. The die contains an impression of the casting together with it’s running, feeding and venting systems. The die is capable of a regular cycle and of (quickly) dissipating the heat of the metal poured into them. Once the liquid metal has cooled sufficiently, the mold or is opened and the metal casting can be removed and finished.

high pressure die casting

The high pressure die casting process is the most widely used, representing about 50% of all light alloy casting production. Low pressure die casting currently accounts for about 20% of production and its use is increasing. Gravity die casting accounts for the rest, with the exception of a small but growing contribution from the recently introduced vacuum die casting and squeeze casting process. the design of low pressure and gravity die casting dies for improved die filling, optimized solidification pattern and maximum yield. Gravity die-casting is suitable for mass production and for fully mechanized casting. Low-pressure die casting is especially suited to

Aluminum die casting

Aluminum Die Casting

the production of components that are symmetric about an axis of rotation. Light automotive wheels are normally manufactured by this technique.

Die casting metals can vary widely, and different die casting companies may have the ability to work with anyone or number of them. Some of the most common metal casting types include aluminum die casting, brass die casting, lead die casting (the most popular for model die casting), magnesium die casting, and zinc die casting.

Die casting is a manufacturing process for producing accurately dimension, sharply defined, smooth or textured-surface metal parts. It is accomplished by forcing molten metal under high pressure into reusable metal dies. The process is often described as the shortest distance between raw material and finished product. The term, “die casting,” is also used to describe the finished part.
The term “gravity die casting” refers to castings made in metal molds under a gravity head. It is known as permanent mold casting in the U.S.A. and Canada. What we call “die casting” here is known as “high pressure die casting” in Europe.

HOW ARE DIE CASTINGS PRODUCED?

First, a steel mold capable of producing tens of thousands of castings in rapid succession must be made in at least two sections to permit removal of castings. These sections are mounted securely in a machine and are arranged so that one is stationary (fixed die half) while the other is moveable (injector die half). To begin the casting cycle, the two die halves are clamped tightly together by the die casting machine. Molten metal is injected into the die cavity where it solidifies quickly. The die halves are drawn apart and the casting is ejected. Die casting dies can be simple or complex, having moveable slides, cores, or other sections depending on the complexity of the casting.
The complete cycle of the die casting process is by far the fastest known for producing precise non-ferrous metal parts. This is in marked contrast to sand casting which requires a new sand mold for each casting. While the permanent mold process uses iron or steel molds instead of sand, it is considerably slower, and not as precise as die casting.

TYPES OF MACHINES FOR DIE CASTING

Regardless of the type of machine used, it is essential that die halves, cores and/or other moveable sections be securely locked in place during the casting cycle. Generally, the clamping force of the machine is governed by (a) the projected surface area of the casting (measured at the die parting line) and (b) the pressure used to inject metal into the die. Most machines use toggle type mechanisms actuated by hydraulic cylinders (sometimes air pressure) to achieve locking. Others use direct acting hydraulic pressure. Safety interlock systems are used to prevent the die from opening during the casting cycles.
Die casting machines, large or small, very fundamentally only in the method used to inject molten metal into the die. These are classified and described as either hot or cold chamber die casting machines.What is Die casting

HOT CHAMBER MACHINES
Hot chamber machines (Fig.1) are used primarily for zinc, and low melting point alloys which do not readily attack and erode metal pots, cylinders and plungers. Advanced technology and development of new, higher temperature materials have extended the use of this equipment for magnesium alloy die casting.
Figure 1: Hot Chamber Machine. Diagram illustrates the plunger mechanism which is submerged in molten metal. Modern machines are hydraulically operated and equipped with automatic cycling controls and safety devices.
In the hot chamber machine, the injection mechanism is immersed in molten metal in a furnace attached to the machine. As the plunger is raised, a port opens allowing molten metal to fill the cylinder. As the plunger moves downward sealing the port, it forces molten metal through the gooseneck and nozzle into the die. After the metal has solidified, the plunger is withdrawn, the die opens, and the resulting casting is ejected.
Hot chamber machines are rapid in operation. Cycle times vary from less than one second for small components weighing less than one ounce to thirty seconds for a casting of several pounds. Dies are filled quickly (normally between five and forty milliseconds) and metal is injected at high pressures (1,500 to over 4,500 psi). Nevertheless, modern technology gives close control over these values, thus producing castings with fine detail, close tolerances and high strength.

COLD CHAMBER MACHINES


Cold chamber machines (Fig. 2) differ from hot chamber machines primarily in one respect; the injection plunger and cylinder are not submerged in molten metal. The molten metal is poured into a “cold chamber” through a port or pouring slot by a hand or automatic ladle. A hydraulically operated plunger, advancing forward, seals the port forcing the metal into the locked die at high pressures. Injection pressures range from 3,000 to over 10,000 psi for both aluminum and magnesium alloys, and from 6,000 to over 15,000 psi for copper base alloys.

Die castingFigure 2: Cold Chamber Machine. Diagram illustrates die, cold chamber and horizontal ram or plunger (in charging position).
Die casting provides complex shapes within closer tolerances than many other mass production processes. In a cold chamber machine, more molten metal is poured into the chamber that is needed to fill the die cavity. This helps sustain sufficient pressure to pack the cavity solidly with casting alloy. Excess metal is ejected along with the casting and is part of the complete shot.
Operation of a “cold chamber” machine is a little slower than a “hot chamber” machine because of the ladling operation. A cold chamber machine is used for high melting point die casting alloys because plunger and cylinder assemblies are less subject to attack since they are not submerged in molten metal.
CASTING DIES AND THEIR CONSTRUCTION


Die casting dies (Fig. 3) are made of alloy tool steels in at least two sections called fixed die half and ejector die half. The fixed die half is mounted on the side toward the molten metal injection system. The ejector die half, to which the die casting adheres, and from which it is ejected when the die is opened, is mounted on the moveable platen of the machine.

The fixed die half of the die is designed to contain the sprue hole through which molten metal enters the die. The ejector half usually contains the runners (passageways) and gates (inlets) which route molten metal to the cavity (or cavities) of the die. The ejector half is also connected to an ejector box which houses the mechanism for ejecting the casting from the die. Ejection occurs when pins connected to the ejector plate move forward to force the casting from the cavity. This usually occurs as part of the opening stroke of the machine. Placement of ejector pins must be carefully arranged so force placed upon the casting during ejection will not cause deformation. Return pins attached to the ejector plate return this plate to its casting position as the die closes.
Fixed and moveable cores are often used in dies. If fixed, the core axis must be parallel to the direction of die casting mold opening. If moveable, they are often attached to core slides. Should the side of a die casting design require a depression, the die can be made with one or more slides to obtain the desired result without affecting ejection of the casting from the die cavity. All moveable slides and cores must be carefully fitted, and have the ability to be securely locked into position during the casting cycle. Otherwise, molten metal could be forced into their slideways causing a disruption of operations. Although slides and cores add to the complexity and cost of die construction, they make it possible to produce die castings in a wide variety of configurations, and usually more economically than any other metalworking process.
TYPES OF DIES


Dies are classified as: single cavity, multiple cavities, combination and unit dies (Figures 4-A to 4-D).

A single cavity die requires no explanation. Multiple cavity dies have several cavities which are all identical. If a die has cavities of different shapes, it’s called a combination or family die. A combination of die is used to produce several parts for an assembly. For simple parts, unit dies might be used to effect tooling and production economies. Several parts for an assembly, or for different customers, might be cast at the same time with unit dies. One or more unit dies are assembled in a common holder and connected by runners to a common opening or sprue hole. This permits simultaneous filling of all cavities.

ADVANTAGES OF DIE CASTING


Die casting component parts, decorative trim, and/or finished products offer many features, advantages and benefits to those who specify this manufacturing process.zinc Die Casting

COMPARISONS WITH OTHER PRODUCTS


Plastics injection molding Parts


Compared with plastic injection molding Parts, die castings are the stronger, stiffer, more stable dimension, more heat resistant, and are far superior to plastics on a properties/cost basis. They help prevent radio frequency and electromagnetic emissions. For chrome plating, die castings are much superior to plastic. Die castings have a high degree of permanence under load when compared to plastics, are completely resistant to ultra-violet rays, weathering, and stress-cracking in the presence of various reagents. Manufacturing cycles for producing die castings are much faster than for plastic injection moldings. Plastics, however, may be cheaper on a unit volume basis, have colour inherent properties which tend to eliminate finishing, are temperature sensitive, and are good electrical insulators.

Sand castings


Compared with sand castings, die castings require much less machining; can be made with thinner walls; can have all or nearly all holes cored to size; can be held within much closer dimensional limits; are produced more rapidly in dies which make thousands of die castings without replacement; do not require new cores for each casting; are easily provided with inserts die cast in place; have smoother surfaces and involve much less labor cost per casting. Sand castings, on the other hand, can be made from ferrous metals and from many non-ferrous alloys not suitable for die casting. Shapes not producible by die casting are available in sand castings; maximum size can be greater; tooling cost is often less and small quantities can be produced more economically. you can check more sand aluminium casting

Die-casting-parts
Permanent mold castings


Compared with permanent mold castings, die castings can be made to closer dimensional limits and with thinner sections; holes can be cored; are produced at higher rates with less manual labour; have smoother surfaces and usually cost less per die casting. Permanent mold casting involves somewhat lower tooling costs; can be made with sand cores yielding shapes not available in die casting.
Forgings
Compared with forgings, die castings can be made more complex in shape and have shaped not forgeable; can have thinner sections; be held to closer dimensions and have coring not feasible in forgings. Forgings, however, are denser and stronger than die castings; have properties of wrought alloys; can be produced in ferrous and other metals and in sizes not suitable for die castings.
Stamping
Compared with stamping, one die casting can often replace several parts. Die castings frequently require fewer assembly operations; can be held within closer dimensional limits; can have almost any desired variation in section thickness; involve less waste in scrap; are producible in more complex shapes and can be made in shapes not producible in stamped forms. Stamping, on the other hand, have properties of wrought metals; can be made in steel and in alloys not suitable for die casting; in their simpler forms, are produced more rapidly; and may weigh less than die castings.
Screw machine products
Compared with screw machine products, die castings are often produced more rapidly; involve much less waste in scrap; can be made in shapes difficult or impossible to produce from the bar or tubular stock, and may require fewer operations. On the other hand, screw machine products can be made from steel and alloys which cannot be die cast; they have the properties of wrought metals, and they require less tooling expense.

High pressure die casting process

In this process, the liquid metal is injected at high speed and high pressure into a metal mold. A schematic view of high pressure die casting is given in Figure.

This equipment consists of two vertical plates on which bolsters are located which hold the die halves. One plate is fixed and the other can move so that the die can be opened and closed. A measured amount of metal is poured into the shot sleeve and then introduced into the mould cavity using a hydraulically-driven piston. Once the metal has solidified, the die is opened and the casting removed. Compared to Gravity die casting, both the machine and its dies are very expensive, and for this reason, high pressure die casting is economical only for high-volume production.

Magnesium die casting is a process in which the molten metal is forced to press under high pressure into the mould cavity using magnesium alloys. High pressure Die casting is one of the best technique widely used to create inexpensive metal parts for a variety of applications, especially magnesium casting products. The metal hardens to get the desired shape.

Magnesium is an excellent choice of die casting to distinguish between durable and durable products, providing a perfect combination of lightness, hardness and corrosion resistance to various casting applications. From concept to completion, with. Magnesium is also 100% recyclable, making it an attractive option when looking at the environment. Once the casting tool or die casting component reaches the end of its life, it can be easily recycled to serve a different purpose, thus saving costs and environmental impacts.

Magnesium is the lightest of all structural metals and is widely used in applications that require high-performance properties. In addition, the magnesium mass is almost equal to many plastics and has many advantages over plastics, including excellent toughness and corrosion resistance. The magnesium parts can be poured in a clean form and have a high ratio of strength to weight. Magnesium die casting can also be used in high-temperature applications

Magnesium is lightweight and has a strong structure for some casting components. Replacing magnesium components instead of heavy aluminium die casting products can help reduce fuel costs in vehicles where car manufacturers develop new techniques to use the unique properties of magnesium.

Advantages of magnesium die casting

There are numerous advantages to die casting part made in magnesium. Magnesium is not only the lightest in all structured materials, but it has excellent rigidity and strong weighting factors. In addition, it has distinct security properties, ideally suited for connectors and electrical buildings.

It has a low melting point

The low melting point makes magnesium much faster and energy efficient to melt without sacrificing the strength of the metal. Low temperature also provides faster cooling. The melting of magnesium is slightly higher than the usual aluminium alloy, making it very compatible with casting projects.

High dimensional accuracy and stability

The best strength/weight ratio for magnesium metal commonly used. Excellent dimensional stability, as well as high impact resistance and dent. The exceptional hydration capacity and low rigidity make it ideal for parts that undergo frequent and sudden changes in direction. High purity alloys can provide the latest best resistance to corrosion of carbon, steel and some aluminium alloys.

High electrical and thermal conductivity

Low heat content means that it requires less energy to reach the casting temperature, and castings are cooled more quickly so that the cycle time is faster. Low temperatures and low intimacy of iron reduce the impact of heat fatigue and corrosion on moulds so that they last longer.

Exceptional thin wall capability

magnesium die casting

magnesium die casting

Thin-walled die casting means systems can be manufactured as a single piece, rather than assembled from several components. This simplifies design, reduces assembly costs, improves reliability, reduces the cost of tools and reduces joints, clamps, and welds.

disadvantages of magnesium die casting

Special treatment methods and coatings are essential in determining the application of magnesium casting this is because Magnesium contains impurities, which means that the metal must be cleaned before pouring to remove impurities from the finished product.

Magnesium consumes a large amount of heat in solubility in preparation for die casting, The casting temperature, magnesium provides a much shorter lifespan than other alloys, which can increase production costs.

Since magnesium is easy to get fired, the magnesium dust of accessories in the workshop sometimes leads to initial blasting and fired, so there must be complete ventilation equipment in the processing workshop, including fine equipment such as dust collectors. Control the ignition source, fire prevention measures is the number one important thing when working with magnesium alloys.

  1. Auminum die casting
  2. Mold Casting
  3. Sand Casting
  • DIE CASTING

Die casting is a manufacturing process for producing metal parts.  In die casting, die or mold cavities are created with hardened tool steel that has been previously machined to a particular shape. Here in die casting, Aluminium is melted first and is poured into a steel die under high pressure forcefully. This manufacturing technique is normally used for high volume production, the process we normally called high pressure die casting or pressure die casting process

  • MOLD CASTING

About mold casting, mold and cores can be of either steel or any other metal. Here also the aluminium is melted first and is poured in the mold provided. Sometimes vacuum is also applied. In some situations, Permanent mold casting is seemed to be stronger than both die casting and sand casting methods. Semi-permanent mold casting techniques are used when permanent cores are impossible to remove from the finished part.

  • SAND CASTING:

Sand casting is the most versatile method of producing aluminium products. Usually, the molted aluminium is poured into a mold which is virtually pressed into a fine sand mixture. The pattern will be little larger than which needed for the aluminium shrinkage during solidification and cooling. Sand Casting is usually a slow process than both die casting and mold casting. Usually, it is used for small quantity products.

Aluminum Casting Alloys

The most important cast aluminum casting alloys system is Al-Si. Here high levels of Silicon contribute to give good casting characteristics. aluminum casting alloys are widely used in engineering structures and components where lightweight or corrosion-resistant is required.
