The porosity of die cast parts is one of the primary concerns of buyers and designers. In die casting, porosity refers to the air pockets, small voids, or pores found within a metal part. Too much porosity in a part can be dangerous as it can compromise the structural integrity of the component. Porosity can
Computer simulation techniques for die casting processes Die casting is the go-to manufacturing technology for mass-produced, lightweight components made from metal, predominantly Aluminum and Magnesium alloys. Most of the high pressure die casted parts are manufactured for the automotive industry but consumer electronics are also making use of this technology. High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC)
P-Q Squared Analysis This article is from FSI (flow3d.com), a developer of numerical analysis software FLOW-3D. P-Q2 analysis is a standard procedure used to optimally match the target gate velocity to the capabilities of the HPDC (High Performance Die Casting) machine’s plunger hydraulic system. Desired fill time and an optimum gate design can be attained by
