  • Working Principle Of Die Casting Mold

    During die casting production, the die casting mold is installed on the die casting machine to form a whole with the die casting machine. Through the pressure of the die casting machine, the molten metal fills the mold cavity at high pressure and high speed, and the molten metal is cooled in the mold cavity under high pressure. Solidified and formed to obtain die castings. The die casting mold is mainly composed of two parts: a fixed mold and a movable mold. The fixed mold is fixed on the fixed mold mounting plate of the die casting machine. The sprue is connected to the nozzle or pressure chamber of the die casting machine. The movable mold is fixed on the mounting plate of the die casting motorized die and moves with the die casting motorized template to complete the opening and closing actions. The work of the die casting mold is a cyclical work process. When the mold is closed, the mold is closed to form a cavity, a gating system, and an overflow exhaust system. The liquid metal fills the cavity under high pressure and solidifies. When the mold is opened, the movable mold and the fixed mold are separated, and the casting is ejected under the action of the ejection mechanism. No matter what die casting mold, its working process includes the following actions: We illustrate the working process of a product die casting mold: 1) Mold closing: the mold is closed and waiting for pouring. 2) Pouring: The manipulator or the operator blows the material into the barrel from the furnace. 3) Injection: According to the set process parameters, carry out the injection. 4) Mold opening: The mold is opened, the core is pulled with the inclined guidepost, and the core is pulled simultaneously. 5) Core pulling: Under the action of the core pulling device, the mold exits from the side to facilitate ejection; if it is the front (fixed) mold core pulling, the core needs to be pulled first and then the mold is opened. 6) Ejector: Under the action of the ejection mechanism, the casting is ejected for easy removal. 7) Pick-up: Manually or automatically remove the casting from the mold; if there is a pin, pay attention to the direction and angle, and do not brutally beat and pull, otherwise the thimble will be easily damaged. 8) Spraying: Clean the mold cavity, the front, and back molds and spray the release agent evenly. 9) First reset mechanism: If there is a thimble under the core pull, you need to make a pull rod and another first reset mechanism to protect the mold. 10) Close the mold again and repeat the above process.

  • Mold Debugging

    After the mold is installed, you need to do relevant inspections before you can open the mold for debugging. Be careful during the debugging process. The machine action should not be too large at a time, otherwise, the mold will be easily damaged when there is an abnormality, especially if there is a core pulling device and a reset mechanism Mold. 1) Adjust the clamping force according to the process regulations and the machine manual. 2) Select a reasonable machine action program according to process requirements. 3) If you need to pull the core first and then open the mold, check the hydraulic core pulling system, whether the oil circuit is smooth, whether the core-pulling action is smooth, and whether the core-pulling position sensor is working properly (after the core-pulling can be performed after the mold is opened an examination). 4) Check the overall installation and tightening status of the mold. 5) Open the mold slowly, and stop immediately if there is any abnormality (to avoid mold damage, you can click to open the mold). 6) When the movable template stops in place, adjust the ejection device of the machine tool to ensure that the ejection distance is reasonable. 7) If there is no abnormality, open and close the mold slowly several times. During the process, pay attention to observe whether the movement of the machine tool and the mold is smooth and normal. 8) After the reliability is confirmed, add lubricating oil to the movable parts, and then open and close the mold to check to ensure that it works normally.

  • The Surface Treatment Method Of Die Casting For Sanitary Ware

    Most of the sanitary ware products after die casting molding or machining also need to be polished and polished or after a variety of surface treatment addition and for a good finished product. What Surface Treatment Method Is Used Most Often For Our Sanitary Ware Products? What surface treatment method and means do we need to use to provide clean and clean for different sanitary ware products after all is most appropriate? It needs to combine different product base materials, different customer requirements, different grades of positioning, different surface treatment processing production costs, and other factors to make appropriate choices. The surface treatment method that defends the sanitary ware product industry uses most often has the following kind roughly: 1. Paint processing: This is one of the most familiar kinds of treatment method, low cost, simple treatment process, it is through the spray gun and with the aid of air pressure, scattered into a uniform and fine droplets, the coating applied on the surface of the sanitary ware pieces of a kind of method. It can be divided into air spray, airless spray paint, as well as the method of electrostatic spray painting. Lacquer, it is to have certain toxicity normally, have certain effect to the body, the paint of different brand because of composition content different toxicity also is different. Special attention should be paid to safety when using, avoid inhalation and skin contact. 2. Electroplating: Electroplating is to use the principle of electrochemistry to lay a layer of metal on the sanitary ware. In addition to copper, iron, zinc alloy, aluminum alloy, and other conductive materials, ABS plastic sanitary ware can also be processed by electroplating. It includes water electroplating processing and vacuum electroplating processing, sanitary ware and sanitary ware with water electroplating processing method is the most common, especially nickel and chromium plating processing for the most. Generally, we say electroplating is water plating processing, and vacuum plating is called coating. 3. Electrophoresis: It is electrophoretic paint, electrophoretic paint is the electrophoretic coating at the Yin and Yang poles, under the effect of applied voltage, the coating ions with charge are moved to the surface of the sanitary ware product, and the product surface is produced by the alkaline action to form insoluble matter, these substances it deposited on the surface of the product.

  • Optimization of Process Structure for Castings

    Optimization of Process Structure for Castings Abstract: In the design of die casting mould, more consideration is given to the curability of the mould itself, such as runner, overflow, temperature, ejection, etc. However, if the technological requirements of subsequent casting machining are not well considered in the design stage of the mould, the machining difficulty of the casting will increase. The production efficiency is reduced, which ultimately affects the machining production cost. Therefore, in the die design stage, not only the die casting process should be considered, but also the needs of subsequent machining should be considered more, so as to effectively optimize the die design scheme and improve the overall economic benefits of die castings. Die-casting has a series of characteristics such as high production efficiency, low cost, excellent appearance quality and long die life. In production, The rationality of mold design determines the quality of castings and the production efficiency. Therefore, the whole mold design process needs to be fully considered in combination with casting characteristics, die casting equipment capacity, material characteristics used, customer special requirements and other relevant factors. However, in actual production, most die-casting mould designer take that demand of blank die-casting as the key point of design concern. However, the special needs of subsequent machining are ignored, and problems such as difficult positioning, uneven blank allowance and shortened tool life often occur in the machining of die-casting blank, which seriously affect the production efficiency of machining and the stability of casting quality, and eventually lead to the decline of economic benefits of enterprises. The following is a brief discussion on the influence of the structural characteristics of die casting molds on machining and how to optimize them. 1st Influence of Gate Design on Die Casting The location of the ingate is one of the important links in the die design. The ingate design of the die casting mould is almost always based on the filling and forming of the casting. Quality and flow state are carried out without too much consideration of the influence of blank on subsequent machining. 1, Influence of ingate Position on Cutting Tools In many ways, the setting of the ingate location of die casting is the key and difficult point in the gating system design. Any negligence will cause unpredictable mistakes, which cannot be made up by the adjustment of die casting process. From the perspective of die casting production, the following basic principles should be followed in selecting gate position. (1)Avoid closing the venting passage immediately after liquid metal enters the mold cavity, which is beneficial to removing the air in the mold cavity. (2)As far as possible, branch ingates should be used less, so as not to interfere with each other and form eddy current and entrained air. (3)The ingates should not face the core and cavity wall directly to avoid direct impact of molten metal. (4)The ingates shall be placed at the thicker part of the casting to facilitate pressure transmission. (5)The molten metal flow is the shortest to reduce energy loss and avoid too much cooling. (6)The ingates shall not cause deformation during shrinkage of the casting. (7)Set the inner gate as close to the important parts of the work piece. If the setting of ingate location can meet the above conditions without considering the subsequent machining of the blank, then the setting of ingate location can be said to be perfect.However, most die castings need to be machined in production. If the actual demand of machining for casting blank is ignored, it will definitely bring some unnecessary troubles. The main manifestations are: the influence of the residue after gate removal on machining positioning and intermittent cutting during machining of gate parts. As we all know, intermittent cutting is a technological difficulty in mechanical machining, which can generate periodic vibration, make stripes or corrugated marks appear on the machined surface, resulting in an increase in the surface roughness value. Intermittent cutting in the cutting process makes the tool periodically stressed, which is easy to cause tool collapse and reduces the service life of the tool. In intermittent cutting, the operator has to adopt lower cutting speed spread and smaller feed, which affects the production efficiency of the machine and the worker. Relatively speaking, the influence on positioning is smaller. When designing machining fixtures, more understanding and communication should be done to confirm the gate form and position of the blank, estimate the approximate size of the gate residue in the future, and try to avoid using the gate position as the positioning benchmark for machining. Therefore, on the premise of meeting the die casting production, the ingate location setting also needs to take into account the technological requirements of subsequent machining, and reasonably arrange the ingate location of blank according to the actual technological process of machining. If you can't have both, it is recommended that the ingate be placed on an exposed and flat plane to facilitate polishing and reduce the allowance. Or the ingate location and size are placed evenly and continuously on the processing plane to reduce intermittent cutting. 1.As shown in picture 1, it is a common ingate location selection problem. Picture 1a that ingate is set on the movable die, and the ingate will remain on the circular plane in the future. From the perspective of die-casting technology, the ingate set on the movable die side is beneficial to the filling of molten metal and the die-casting production of castings. However, the ingate residue on the circular plane can be removed by subsequent machining, and the casting has beautiful appearance and no gate residue trace, but it will bring the problem of intermittent cutting. Fig. 1b is set at the fixed mold side, and the ingate will remain on the circumference of the casting in the future. In terms of die casting process, the metal liquid set at such ingate will directly impact the cavity wall of the mold, which is easy to adhere to the mold at the corresponding parts of the gate. After the ingate is removed in the future, ingate marks will remain on the circumference of the casting, affecting the appearance quality of the casting. However, the problem of intermittent cutting is avoided without machining the circumferential part. 2.The choice in actual production needs to be combined with the characteristics of their respective enterprises and comprehensively balanced with customer demand as the orientation. What should be emphasized here is that the design of die casting dies should take into account the needs of machining as much as possible. 2.Influence of Ingate Position on Machining Positioning Machining 1.Generally, a coarse reference on the blank should be selected for positioning, and then fine reference processing should be carried out. These coarse benchmarks require smoothness, reliability and consistency. There are mainly two selection methods for coarse benchmarks. (a)When the dimension chain on the machined casting pattern does not take a certain non-machined surface as the design benchmark, the determination of the coarse benchmark will often select the largest plane, outer circle or inner hole on the blank, because these features can obtain the maximum positioning limit and ensure the accuracy and consistency of positioning. (b)When the dimension chain on the machined casting drawing takes a non-machined surface as the design datum, the coarse datum must be selected, because the fine datum machined from this datum can represent the drawing in subsequent machining. The original design datum on is used as the process datum.If the gate appears in these areas, the casting positioning will be seriously affected. According to the machining positioning method, the corresponding optimization scheme is as follows: (1)As far as possible, the gate position should not be selected on a larger plane for positioning or on a very accurate design. (2)If the ingate must be placed on a larger plane for locating or on a design basis, consider multiple strands of feed and reserve the required position for positioning, as shown in Fig. 2. The middle area of the strand division is still a flat area, which can form a three-point-plane positioning (the same as the outer circle positioning) with other areas. (3) When the casting allows, add process positioning bosses (see Fig. 3) to optimize machining positioning coarse datum level. (a)The gate at the core side (b)The gate at the cavity side Picture 1 Different Design of Gate Position Through the above optimization scheme, the reliability of casting machining positioning can be improved. In addition, paying attention to the deformation at the gate and optimizing the gate removal process during die casting production can improve the machining positioning. 2nd Influence of Reserved holes 1.Influence of Reserved Holes on Position Tolerance It is generally believed that the hole should be reserved as far as possible for the hole shapes that can be formed in the mold, so as to reduce the machining allowance, protect the hardened layer of the casting and ensure the good air tightness of the casting. However, the reservation of bottom holes sometimes raises another question as to whether these pin holes can meet the position tolerance requirements of the casting and do not affect machining. If there is an out-of-tolerance position after machining, it is very likely that the out-of-tolerance position of the preset hole causes the tool to follow the wrong preset hole. The guide deviates from the preset machining size.The base of reserved hole is the manufacturing base of the mold, and in the process of machining the selection of the process base and mold manufacturing base is not consistent, reserved hole must also deviate from the process base, so it will lead to the position out of tolerance. This kind of problem can be solved in the following ways: (1)When designing the mold, the mold manufacturing benchmark is taken as the rough positioning benchmark for machining as far as possible. After the benchmark is unified, the position accuracy of hole machining will be improved. For example, the reserved hole with position requirement should be the same as the positioning surface of the process reference on the parting surface of the mold side, reduce the error influence of mold clamping dislocation. (2)Due to the diversity of products, it is sometimes difficult to unify the manufacturing standards. At this time, it is suggested to cancel the reserved hole with shallow processing depth. (3)The positioning and processing of the hole are completed by machining, thus eliminating the guiding effect of the preset bottom hole and improving the position accuracy. However, it should also be noted that a large margin of cutting will expose defects in the die casting. 2.Influence of Reserved Hole on Machining Positioning In machining, the reserved hole of the blank on the die casting is often used as coarse positioning, so the reliability of the reserved bottom hole is especially important for positioning. It is important, so it is suggested to consider the priority of preset hole positioning. (1)The core of the reserved hole of the mold should be integrated with the core as much as possible, avoiding the use of detachable separate body. The main reason is that the split detachable core is used-after a period of time, burrs will be formed on the pin hole assembly joint surface, and these burrs are very thin and soft. Even if they are removed, a small part of them will adhere to the hole wall, affecting the positioning accuracy. (2)Preset hole core for positioning The inclination of the mould is enlarged and the surface hardness is increased as much as possible, so that the mould can be released smoothly during die casting production, the possibility of sticking the mould and pulling the inner wall of the hole can be reduced, and the positioning accuracy can be improved. (3)When the reserved hole with small aperture and split type is used as coarse positioning reference, it is better to prepare more cores of the hole while making the mold, so as to ensure the stability and consistency of the hole size during mold maintenance and avoid unnecessary losses for subsequent machining. Whether the reserved hole is appropriate or not will affect the positioning and accuracy of machining. Therefore, in the die-casting production process, in addition to paying attention to whether the reserved hole is deformed or not, stick mold and other quality states, it is also necessary to strengthen the daily core maintenance, to ensure the consistency of positioning benchmark. 3rd Conclusion To sum up, from the perspective of casting machining, the mold design is more convenient to locate and the surplus distribution is more reasonable, especially the manufacturing standard of the mold should be in good agreement with the machining process, which is beneficial to improving the efficiency and quality of machining. Therefore, in the design of die casting molds, designers need to consider all aspects of factors comprehensively, which puts forward new requirements for the expansion of professional ability of die designers. An excellent die casting designer must be a compound technical talent with mold technology, die casting technology and machining technology.

  • Temperature Controller For Die Casting Production

    The automatic control of die casting temperature controller is an indispensable means in modern die casting technology. What is the function of the die casting hot die machine in the temperature control of die casting? First, The Die Casting Temperature Controller In The Preheating Stage Of Die Casting 1. Preheating the mold can reduce the number of hot modules, improve production efficiency and reduce waste; 2. Preheating the mold can reduce the thermal impact of the alloy metal liquid on the die casting mold, prolong the time for the mold to generate thermal fatigue cracks, and extend the service life of the mold; 3.Preheating the mold can make the clearance of the sliding part of the mold expand and adjust, prevent the liquid metal from drilling into the sliding part, and block the mold; Preheating die by die casting temperature controller can effectively reduce the thermal modulus and thermal shock of molten metal. It is often used in gravity metal mold. The die casting hot die machine can preheat the die evenly and has the function of cooling the die to ensure the stability of the die temperature and minimize the thermal shock of the molten metal. It is the standard equipment for the production of aluminum alloy thin-walled parts and magnesium alloy casting dies. Second, The Die Casting Temperature Controller Of The Die Casting Mold Temperature Control If the mold temperature is too high or too low, it will cause disadvantages such as unstable casting size, high reject rate, and reduced output. When casting thin-walled castings, the heat sent to the mold is often less than the heat lost from the mold, so that the appropriate molding temperature cannot be reached, and the die casting hot mold machine needs to continuously add heat to maintain the mold temperature constant. As far as the mold temperature is concerned, the influence on the quality of die casting has the following items. Low mold temperature can cause: (1) The core sticking pressure is too large, and the casting is difficult to the mold; (2) The spray function of the spray agent deteriorates; (3) There is a cold lap on the casting surface; (4) The temperature difference between the mold and the liquid metal is too large, which accelerates the damage of the mold; (5) There are patterns or marks on the mold surface; (6) Undercast. Excessive mold temperature can cause: (1) Sticky mold and deformation; (2) The consumption of spray agent increases, and the decomposition is accelerated; (3) The cycle of die casting is prolonged; (4)The movable part of the mold is easy to break down and accelerate wear; (5) There are air bubbles on the surface; (6)There are shrinkage holes inside. Die casting temperature controller generally uses oil as the medium, and the working temperature can reach 320 ℃. But there are exceptions, such as the hot chamber die casting machine and the cooling of some cores. In order to prevent fire, pressurized water can be used as the medium, which does not vaporize at 140 °C. The non-pressurized water cooling system can only be used in places below 95 °C. In the die casting process, the pouring temperature, filling time, casting pressure, and mold temperature. These parameters are closely related to the quality, yield, and die life of die castings. In the production of die casting, the die casting temperature controller improves the quality and process of die casting by stabilizing the temperature, and its role and effect are self-evident.

  • Optimization of Die Casting Process for Aluminum Alloy Front Cover of Automobile Engine

    With the rapid development of the automobile industry, light-alloy materials are increasingly used in parts and components due to the requirements of lightweight bodies. Aluminum alloys (such as aluminum-silicon series alloys) have the characteristics of low density, low thermal expansion coefficient, and good friction properties, and are widely used in automobile engine covers, gearbox housings, and other castings. This topic uses Magma software to analyze the filling and solidification process of the aluminum alloy front cover of a family car engine; through the analysis of the results of numerical simulation, an optimization plan for the die casting process is proposed, which provides a reference for the production of similar products. Casting Model And Material 1. Casting model The outer dimension of the engine front cover is about 470 mm×310 mm×105 mm, the product mass is about 3.4 kg, the average wall thickness of the main body is 3.3 mm, and the maximum wall thickness reaches 26 mm (the part marked in the wireframe is the thicker wall). The product structure is relatively complex, with a considerable number of bolt holes and reinforcing ribs distributed inside; and the wall thickness of the casting is very different, and stress concentration is likely to occur during the die casting process, resulting in uneven density, resulting in casting deformation, shrinkage, and shrinkage porosity. . The casting product model is shown in Figure 1. 2. Casting materials The front cover of the engine is required to have good mechanical properties and high density, and no internal defects such as cracks, shrinkage porosity, pores, and shrinkage holes are allowed. Based on the above working environment and requirements, the AlSi9Cu3 aluminum alloy is selected, which has good fluidity and excellent die casting performance. Table 1 is its chemical composition and mechanical properties. Initial Die Casting Process Plan 1. Design of initial pouring system According to the characteristics of the product structure, it is planned to design 2 branches with a total of 6 inner runners for feeding, as shown in Figure 2. The aluminum alloy liquid is introduced into the sprue from the sprue cup, and then enters the 6-way internal gate through the 2-way branch, and finally enters the cavity for filling. 2. Determination of process parameters The casting material is AlSi9Cu3, and the mold is DIEVAR. According to the physical characteristics of the two materials, combined with the die-casting process design manual and production experience, and through calculations, the following die-casting process parameters are determined: the initial temperature of the casting is 670℃, and the initial temperature of the mold is 180℃ ; The casting mass is 3.4 kg, the pouring system mass is 2 kg, the overflow system mass is 850g, and the total mass is 6.25 kg. The projected area of the casting is 1 196 cm2, and the total projected area is 1 554 cm2; the injection specific pressure is selected as 60MPa, and the safety factor is 1.2. 3. Simulation analysis of the preliminary plan In order to understand the filling and solidification of the casting during the casting process, Magma software is used for numerical simulation, as shown in Figure 3. It can be seen that the filling time of the entire cavity is about 0.076 s. The initial filling speed of the molten metal entering the cavity is faster, and the filling speed of the middle area is significantly faster than the two sides. In the middle of filling, the molten metal gradually enters the thicker wall area. It was observed from time to time that the thicker-walled area was filled relatively slowly and gas stagnation was easy to occur. After the filling of the area was completed, due to higher temperature and longer solidification time, internal quality problems such as pores and shrinkage holes were prone to occur. Die Casting Process Optimization Design 1. Optimized design of gating system In view of the relatively slow filling of thick-walled areas, in order to ensure the quality of the castings and make the filling speed of each area basically the same during the forming process, it is proposed to add two gate feeds to the thick-walled areas to speed up the filling speed of this area, Which makes the entire filling process more stable and smooth, is more conducive to the elimination of gas and avoids shrinkage, shrinkage and other defects. Figure 4 shows the optimized scheme, and the wireframe part is a 2-way gate with added feed. Since the gate position has a large drop from the bottom of the casting, in order to make the feeding of this area smooth, a slider is added to the gate here, as shown in Figure 5, to ensure that the aluminum liquid fills the area well. 2. Simulation analysis of optimization plan In order to verify the filling effect and solidification of the optimized scheme, numerical simulation was performed again to observe the filling and solidification process of the optimized scheme. The simulation process is analyzed from the aspects of filling temperature field change, air pressure change, solidification situation, and so on. It is found through observation that the entire cavity filling process is about 0.071 s, which is very close to the theoretical estimate. During the filling process, the molten aluminum advances relatively smoothly, and the speed is basically the same; the gas discharge in the cavity is smooth, the air pressure is relatively stable, and within the risk control range, there is no obvious gas stagnation and entrainment. In the solidification process, except for the thicker areas, the cooling and solidification are slower, and the solidification and cooling of other areas are basically uniform and ideal. Local Area Cooling Scheme 1. High-pressure point cooling technology High-pressure point cooling technology has been increasingly used in the die casting industry in recent years. The cooling water is adjusted to the ideal pressure state by the high-pressure point cooler, and the corresponding pipe is quickly passed through the mold to achieve the purpose of cooling. Since the core cooling rate is fast in this process, shrinkage holes will not be formed near the core position. Therefore, the use of high-pressure spot cooling technology can achieve mold heat balance, effectively improve local pore defects, greatly increase mold life, and reduce core replacement and Overhaul rate, and better guarantee the quality of castings. 2. High pressure point cold in the local area In view of the slow cooling and solidification of the thicker part in the numerical simulation analysis process, high-pressure spot cooling is considered to be used to quickly cool the key areas to ensure the quality of the castings. Mold Development And Trial Production Die casting molds were developed according to the optimized process plan and trial production was carried out. The trial production was carried out on the DCC1250T horizontal die casting machine. The mold structure is shown in Figure 8. The initial temperature of the trial mold is 180°C. During the trial production process, as the injection progresses, in the low-speed injection stage, the molten aluminum enters the runner through the sprue, then enters the cavity smoothly from the inner gate, and quickly enters the high-speed injection stage. High-pressure spot cooling is performed in key areas to make the solidification time of each part of the casting basically consistent. Figure 9 is a photo of the trial product. It can be seen that the surface of the casting is smooth, the outline is clear, the quality of the inner hole is good, and there are no obvious defects. The product has been tested for airtightness and mechanical properties. After inspection, the pass rate of the product has reached 96%, and the test results meet the performance requirements. In Conclusion (1) Using Magma software, the filling and solidification process of the gating system and the overflow system of the aluminum alloy front cover of a certain family car engine were simulated. The corresponding problems were found through the simulation analysis, and the die casting process optimization program was proposed. (2)  After determining the relevant die casting process parameters, the optimized filling and solidification process was simulated again, and the temperature field changes, air pressure changes, and solidification conditions were analyzed, and the rationality of the optimized scheme was initially verified. (3)  Aiming at the problems of excessively high local temperature and long cooling time of castings, high-pressure spot cooling is used to speed up the cooling rate of local areas and improve the quality of castings.

Our sales engineers also have high-level communication skills and are patient in responding to customer questions. Even if they cannot answer immediately, they will immediately consult technical engineers and respond to customers as soon as they reply.
