Hongyi Zhu, Cunjuan Xia, Huawei Zhang, Dechao Zhao, Mingliang Wang & Haowei Wang Abstract In recent years, Non-Heat Treatable High Pressure Die Casting Al alloys (NHT-HPDC Al alloys) have been proposed and developed for integrated die casting in the automotive industry. These alloys exhibit excellent castability and can achieve sufficient mechanical properties without the need for heat treatment. Despite their industrial
Xiaorou Ning, Keke Zuo, Yang Li, Wanting Guo, Xiao Peng, Jianguo Su, Lai Song, Weihua Liu, Tongyu Liu & Yuyan Ren Abstract In the process of pouring salt cores, it is crucial to select the appropriate mold temperature, which is essential for the shaping and strength of the salt cores. Additionally, salt cores need to undergo water-soluble cleaning after casting, which has certain requirements for
Hecong Xie, Hua Zhao, Xin Guo, Yongfeng Li, Hengrui Hu, Jiangfeng Song, Bin Jiang & Fusheng Pan Abstract The application of cast magnesium alloy components is increasing in recent years, especially in the new energy automotive and transportation industries. As component application scenarios become increasingly complex, the performance of cast magnesium alloys needs to be further enhanced. Significant progress has been made in
Abstract In the automobile industry, aluminum casting is a commonly utilized production process for structural components. However, flaws in aluminum castings can lead to fatigue failures. This research study provides a thorough analysis of the design, development, construction, and testing of a swing arm made of aluminum die-cast (HPDC). The investigation primarily focuses on analyzing

Vieira and Ana Reis Submitted: December 5th, 2022 Reviewed: January 7th, 2023 Published: February 3rd, 2023 DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.109869 Abstract Low- pressure casting and high-pressure casting processes are the most common liquid-based technologies used to produce aluminum components. Processing conditions such as cooling rate and pressure level greatly influence the
International Journal of Metalcasting (2023)Cite this article Abstract Non-heat-treated Al–Mg-based die casting alloys have been developed for the structural parts of automobiles. In previous studies, alloy compositions with at least 1.0%Si have been proposed to reduce the hot tearing susceptibility (HTS). On the other hand, the increase in the Si content reduces the ductility. For some
