Die Steels and Improved Productivity in Die Casting

Computer-Aided System for Multi-Cavity Die-Casting Die-Design

Die-design for the die-casting process is a time consuming and complex activity that requires domain knowledge and vast experience of the die-designer besides information about manufacturing resources, part geometry, delivery time and cost preferences, etc. Complexity of the die-design activity further increases in case of a multi-cavity die. Currently available die-design systems lack in the l...

Materials on Dies for Pressure Die Casting

In the contribution the stress of die materials of thermal fatigue is defi ned and material life is derived theoretically and compared with the measured values. The important properties of the die materials as thermal conductivity, coeffi cient of thermal expansivity, modulus of elasticity and mechanical properties are described. Binding to it single die materials as carbon steels and chrome-tu...

Die-Casting Process Modeling Using Neural Networks

This chapter presents the application of a neural network to the industrial process modeling of high-pressure die casting (HPDC). The large number of interand intradependent process parameters makes it difficult to obtain an accurate physical model of the HPDC process that is paramount to understanding the effects of process parameters on casting defects such as porosity. The first stage of the...
