Analysis of Casting Process-Types of Die Casting
1. Sand Mould Casting
Sand casting refers to a casting method in which castings are produced in a sand mold.
Steel, iron and most non-ferrous alloy castings can be obtained by sand casting.
Because the molding materials used in sand mould casting are cheap and easy to obtain, the casting mold is simple to manufacture, and can be adapted to the single-piece production, batch production and mass production of castings, and has been the basic process in casting production for a long time.

- Various blanks can be produced in batches, and the streamlined production is convenient for management and quality control.
Pressure casting refers to a casting method in which molten or semi-molten metal is injected into a metal mold at high speed and crystallized under pressure, referred to as castings. The common injection pressure is 30-70MPa, the filling speed is about 0.5-50 m/s, and the filling time is 0.01-0.2 s.
Pressure Casting Process
Technics Characteristic
- High productivity, easy to realize mechanization and automation, and can produce thin-walled casting parts with complex shapes. The minimum wall thickness of die-casting zinc alloy is only 0.3mm, the minimum wall thickness of die-casting aluminum alloy is about 0.5mm, and the minimum casting hole diameter is 0.7mm.
- Casting parts have high dimensional accuracy and small surface roughness values. The dimensional tolerance level of die castings can reach CT3~CT6, and the surface roughness is generally Ra0.8~3.2μm.
- Parts can be embedded in casting parts, which not only saves precious materials and machining time, but also replaces the assembly process of components, which can save assembly processes and simplify manufacturing processes.
Low pressure casting means that the casting mold is generally placed above a sealed crucible, and compressed air is introduced into the crucible to cause a low pressure (0.06-0.15MPa) on the surface of the molten metal, so that the molten metal rises from the riser to fill the mold and control solidified casting method.
This casting method has good feeding and compact structure of the casting, and it is easy to cast large and thin-walled and complex castings without a riser, and the metal yield is 95%. No pollution, easy to realize automation.
Technological Process

- The casting parts crystallize under pressure, the castings are dense in structure, clear in outline, smooth in surface, and have high mechanical properties, which are especially beneficial for the casting of large and thin-walled parts.
- The feeding riser is omitted, and the metal utilization rate is increased to 90-98%.
Centrifugal casting is a technology and method of injecting liquid metal into a high-speed rotating mold, so that the metal liquid can be filled with a centrifugal motion to form a casting.
Due to the centrifugal motion, the liquid metal can fill the mold well in the radial direction and form the free surface of the casting parts; A cylindrical inner hole can be obtained without a core;
Helps to exclude gas and inclusions in liquid metal; Affects the crystallization process of metal, thereby improving the mechanical and physical properties of casting parts.
Technological Process
Technological Characteristics
- Under the action of inertia force, the metal crystallization from the casting wall (outer layer of the casting) to the inner surface of the casting part, directional crystallization, slag, gas, inclusions and other concentrated in the inner surface of the casting part, the other parts of the casting structure is fine, no porosity, shrinkage, slag and other defects, the mechanical properties of the casting part is good.
- Centrifugal casting does not require a gating system and consumption of molten metal at risers.
It refers to a molding method that liquid metal fills a metal mold under the action of gravity to cool and solidify to obtain a casting part.

Squeeze casting is a casting method in which alloy liquid is formed and solidified under mechanical pressure.
During squeeze casting, a large mechanical pressure is applied to the liquid (or semi-solid) metal quantitatively poured into the mold cavity to make it form, crystallize, solidify, and feed with a small amount of plastic deformation. This process The method was also called liquid metal die forging, liquid metal stamping, liquid metal forging, punch pressure crystallization, etc.

Advantages of Die Casting:
1. Price Advantage
Why is there an advantage in the price of die castings?
Casting is suitable for both single-piece and small-batch production, as well as large-scale mass production. The investment in equipment is low, the cost of castings is low, and the source of raw materials is wide and the price is low.
Compared with the traditional material reduction production process (turning, milling, wire cutting, electrolysis), the die-casting production process causes almost no waste in the use of materials. Die-casting is to convert the raw materials into a liquid state through high temperature and then pour them into the mold to obtain parts. The metal scrap (casting, riser, waste casting) can be directly melted and used again;
Secondly, the production efficiency is also much simplified compared to the traditional subtractive processing process, usually one out of one or one out of many methods. Even if the die-casting parts need to be processed later, the processing allowance is very small. Just these points have resulted in significant savings in labor costs, power costs and material costs.
It can manufacture parts or blanks of various sizes and complex shapes. The outline size can be as small as a few millimeters, as large as tens of meters, and the weight can be as small as a few grams and as large as hundreds of tons. There are also castings with complex inner cavities such as cylinder blocks, etc.
The shape and size of castings and machine parts can be the closest (especially precision casting), so the cutting allowance can be minimized, which reduces the consumption of metal materials and saves processing time;
Strong adaptability, casting method can cast various alloys (copper alloy, aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy, cast steel and cast iron, etc.), for brittle metals, such as cast iron, etc., casting is the only blank manufacturing method.
