cold chamber pressure die casting machine
In a cold chamber pressure die casting process, molten metal or metal alloy is injected at high speed and high pressure into the mould.Horizontal high pressure die casting machines ensure the die closes completely.
Depending on the metal being used, the injection unit that fills the mould can either be hot chamber or cold chamber.In cold chamber process the metal is first melted in a separate furnace and transferred to a holding furnace, then poured into a shot sleeve and injected into the mould.
Cold chamber pressure die casting technology can produce very large light alloy parts, in high volumes and great speeds.These machines deliver light alloy parts with high precision, superior surface finish, excellent uniformity and optimum mechanical properties.
The cold chamber pressure die casting process can also produce components with thin walls and "co-cast” parts with different types of inserts, such as screws and liners, that then become an integral part of the product itself.
Cold chamber pressure die casting technology is ideal for production of a diverse range of aluminium and magnesium automotive castings such as engine blocks, gearbox casings, oil sumps, engine mounts and structural parts like cross-car beams.It is widely used in other sectors to manufacture components in applications that range from the simplest – a lighting component – to the most demanding, such as aerospace engine parts.
