Characteristics of Die Casting Machine

At present, the most common die casting machine is the hot chamber die casting machine. The hot chamber die casting machines supplied on the market are mostly machines with clamping force less than 4000kN. For most of these machines, the clamping force is less than 1600kN. And only a small part of hot chamber die casting machines have clamping force greater than 4000kN in the market. Die casting machine has an important impact on product quality and production efficiency. Therefore, choosing a suitable die casting machine is not a simple thing. The characteristics of several common die casting machines are introduced.

Characteristics of Hot Chamber Die Casting Machine

Hot chamber die casting machine is mainly used for casting low melting point alloy such as zinc alloy. The vertical hot chamber die casting machine is suitable for the production of small die castings, while medium and large die castings are not suitable. The metal liquid entering the mold cavity always flows in the closed pipe, so there are less impurities in the metal liquid, which is conducive to improve the quality of die castings. In the whole process of die casting, hydraulic hot chamber die casting machine can generally complete the work automatically. The hot chamber die casting machine has no pouring process when it works, so it has high production efficiency in normal operation. The pressure of low consumption hot chamber die casting machine is low, and there is no pressurization in the injection process, so it is not easy to damage small die castings. It is difficult to control the service life of hot chamber die casting machine's parts such as punch and nozzle. Once these parts are damaged, they must be replaced immediately, which will take a lot of time.

Characteristics of Vertical Cold Chamber Die Casting Machine

Vertical cold chamber die casting machine is suitable for die casting zinc alloy, aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy and other alloys. Because this kind of hydraulic die casting machines are mostly small machines, so they need less materials in the production process. The cold chamber of the automatic die casting machine is placed vertically. After the metal liquid is poured into the cold chamber, the gas is on the top of the metal liquid. Therefore, the gas is not easy to be injected into the mold together with the metal liquid in the injection process. The vertical aluminum die casting machine covers a small area, but the machine is high, so it can not be installed in a high workshop. Therefore, it cannot be installed in a low workshop.

Characteristics of Horizontal Cold Chamber Die Casting Machine

Horizontal cold chamber die casting machine is suitable for casting various non-ferrous metals and ferrous metals. Because the machine is easy to operate and has high production efficiency, it is easy to realize automatic production. The model and size of horizontal cold chamber die casting machine are very rich, users can choose the right machine according to their needs. In the injection process, grading and segmentation are easy to achieve. Therefore, the multifunctional die casting machine can meet the different requirements of die casting process to a large extent, so as to adapt to the production of various types of die castings.
