Yung-Kuang Yang and Chorng-Jyh Tzeng Keywords: ANOVA, AZ91D, Die-casting, Taguchi method, Stress–strain. Introduction Magnesium and its alloys are becoming increasingly important as structural materials for applications in which weight reduction is critical, because of their low density and high stiffness-to-weight ratio. Popular applications include automotive, industrial, materials-handling, and aerospace equipment such as automotive pulleys, cog-tooth
Depending on the project, aluminium casting is carried out through a “hot” or “low” process. Diecasting is one of the most economical and fast molding processes. The advantage of this production process is that hundreds of thousands of castings can be produced relatively quickly using a single mold. All parts produced are of uniform quality
