Abstract

A vacuum die casting method may include: coupling a fixed die and a movable die to each other; closing a molten metal pouring hole formed in a sleeve using an injection plunger operated in the sleeve, which is formed on a lower side of the fixed die or the movable die; performing vacuum decompression in a cavity formed between the fixed die and the movable die using a vacuum decompression device connected to chill vent blocks provided on upper portions of the fixed die and the movable die; supplying oxygen in the cavity using an oxygen supply device connected to the chill vent blocks after completing the step of performing vacuum decompression; and supplying a molten metal to the cavity through the molten metal pouring hole.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE(S) TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0140352, filed on Nov. 5, 2019, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSUREField of the Disclosure

[0002] The present disclosure relates to a die casting method and a die, and more particularly, relates to a die casting method and a die, in which the die is cast by creating a vacuum in cavity of the die.Description of the Related Art

[0003] In general, a high pressure casting (die casting) may be performed in a manner whereby a molten metal, which is a melted lightweight non-ferrous metal alloy including aluminum, magnesium and zinc, is injected into a pouring hole of a pouring sleeve. The molten metal is filled into a cavity of a die by an injection plunger at high speed and high pressure, so that a die may be injection molded.

[0004] In this process, gases filled in the cavity such as air and steam may be mixed together and ...
