Fig. 1 e Schematic of the CPC machine and process procedure (a) Structure of the CPC machine (b) Major steps of the CPC process: (i) pressure chamber closed; (ii) furnace and pressure chamber are pressurized; (iii) furnace pressure is further increased slowly; (iv) chamber pressure is quickly released; (v) furnace pressure is released;(vi) chamber and die are opened; and (vii) the cast part is ejected.

A study of an industrial counter pressure casting process for automotive parts

1. Overview: 2. Abstract: Counter pressure casting (CPC) is emerging in the automotive manufacturing industry as an alternative to low-pressure die casting (LPDC) due to its reported superior capabilities in aluminum parts production. This study presents the first comprehensive investigation of how CPC’s characteristic feature (applied chamber pressure) influences the fluid flow and heat transport
