High pressure die casting, it is also called HPDC, Diecasting is a process that is used to create metal parts and components through the use of extreme pressure and heat. This process is used to create components with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability and can be used to create a wide variety of items, from engine blocks to parts and components for a variety of other applications.
At present we are familiar with high pressure die casting can be divided into, according to the material, aluminum alloy die casting, zinc alloy die casting, magnesium alloy die casting. According to the type of machine, it can also be divided into cold chamber die casting and Hot chamber die casting.
High Pressure Die Casting Process
High Pressure die casting process begins with the preparation of a die, which is a metal mold that is used to shape the shape of the part being created. This die is then placed on the die casting machine, which is a high pressure, high temperature device that forces the metal into the die and forms the part. Once the part has been formed, it is then removed from the die and the excess metal is removed.
High Pressure die casting process is typically done in one of two ways. The first is known as cold chamber die casting, which is a process of injecting molten metal into the die. The second method is known as hot chamber die casting, which is a process of injecting molten metal into the die by using a plunger. The metal is then cooled down and the part is then formed.
Once the part has been formed, it is then subjected to a variety of post-processing steps to ensure its accuracy and durability. This can include machining, heat treating, painting, and other processes. After these processes have been completed, the part is then ready to be used in any application it was designed for.
Die casting is a highly efficient and accurate manufacturing process that can produce parts and components with a high degree of precision and repeatability. It is an ideal process for creating items such as engine blocks, parts and components for a variety of other applications, and can be used to create a variety of items in a cost-effective and timely manner.
High Pressure Die Casting Advantage and Disadvantage
| Advantage | 1.Good product quality 2.High dimensional accuracy 3.High production efficiency 4.Good surface finish 5.Excellent economic effect 6.Light Weight |
| Disadvantage | mold investment is higher die-casting die life is low Die Casting is easy to produce porosity and cannot be heat treated |
Application
High pressure die casting produce light weight metal, and widely used on many industry and device. mainly used on below products.
Auto Component parts.
