When manufacturing mechanical weight-added die castings, how to achieve the goal of increasing weight while maintaining or improving mechanical properties?

When manufacturing mechanical weight-added die castings, choosing the right material is the key to ensuring that the product meets weight requirements while maintaining or improving mechanical properties. We need to consider the density of the material, because the direct way to increase weight is to choose a material with a higher density. However, simply increasing density may not be enough to meet all performance requirements, so factors such as material strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and processing performance also need to be considered comprehensively.

For mechanical weight-added die castings, commonly used materials include aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, magnesium alloys, and some copper alloys. These materials have good casting properties and machinability, and can be formulated according to different application scenarios to achieve the desired balance of weight and performance. For example, for parts that need to withstand large loads, high-strength aluminum alloys or copper alloys can be selected, and their strength can be further improved through processes such as heat treatment; for parts that require good corrosion resistance, corrosion-resistant materials with specific alloy elements added can be selected.

In order to reduce costs while meeting weight requirements, composite materials or multi-layer material structures can also be considered. Through reasonable material selection and structural design, it is possible to achieve a double improvement in the weight and performance of mechanically weighted die castings without increasing too much cost.

In the die casting process, how to optimize the process parameters to control the weight accuracy and internal quality of mechanically weighted die castings?

In the die casting process, optimizing the process parameters is an important means to control the weight accuracy and internal quality of mechanically weighted die castings. The die casting process involves multiple key parameters, including pouring temperature, pouring speed, pressure, holding time and mold temperature, which directly affect the molding quality, weight accuracy and internal structure of the casting.

In order to achieve precise weight control and high-quality internal structure, it is first necessary to determine the appropriate pouring temperature and mold temperature. Too high pouring temperature will cause the metal liquid to be too fluid, and it is easy to produce defects such as shrinkage cavities and shrinkage; while too low pouring temperature will affect the filling capacity of the metal liquid and the density of the casting. The mold temperature affects the cooling rate and crystallization process of the casting, and then affects its internal structure and performance.

Pouring too fast may cause the molten metal to impact the mold, resulting in splashing and air entrainment, affecting the surface quality and internal quality of the casting; pouring too slowly may cause insufficient fluidity of the molten metal, affecting the integrity and weight accuracy of the casting. The pressure directly affects the filling capacity of the molten metal and the density of the casting. Excessive pressure may cause damage to the mold or deformation of the casting, while too little pressure may cause defects such as pores and shrinkage inside the casting.

Control of the holding time is also crucial. Insufficient holding time may cause incomplete solidification inside the casting, resulting in defects such as shrinkage cavities and shrinkage; while too long holding time may increase the production cycle and cost. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal holding time through experiments and optimization based on specific material and process conditions.
