Problems solved by technology

In order to ensure good fluidity of the molten metal in the die casting process, the alloy melt usually maintains a certain degree of superheat from smelting to filling, and the degree of superheat can reach above 100°C. Stand still until the casting is completed, up to 5-6 hours. Under this working condition, the degree of oxidation and gas absorption of the melt gradually increases, and the risk of shrinkage cavities and inclusions in the casting increases during the casting process, resulting in a decrease in the final quality of the casting

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving casting quality and suitable for pressure casting. The method comprises the following steps: a metal melt is smelted, refined and insulated at a lower temperature, the melt which does not enter a die cavity is quickly heated to a process specified temperature in an induction heating or resistance heating mode in a pressure casting mold filling process, and then the alloy melt is subjected to the technological processes of mold filling, pressurizing solidification, pressure maintaining feeding and pressure relief workpiece taking at the temperaturespecified by the technology. According to the method, the melt temperature is reduced, melt oxidation and air suction are reduced, and the purpose of improving the quality of the pressure casting canbe achieved.
