A mold body is mounted on the mounting frame 1, comprising an upper mold 8 and a lower mold 10. The lower mold 10 has a placement groove 30, within which a bottom forming plate 24 is placed. The upper mold 8 has a slot 29 that mates with the placement groove 30. A top forming plate 18 is mounted within the slot 29 that mates with the bottom forming plate 24. The top forming plate 18 has forming protrusions 19 on both its upper and lower surfaces. The bottom forming plate 24 has forming grooves 27 that mate with the forming protrusions 19. In actual use, the material in the top forming plate 18 and the bottom forming plate 24 is pressed together by the mutual pressing of the upper mold 8 and the lower mold 10, and with the cooperation of the forming protrusion 19 and the forming groove 27, thereby achieving the effect of gear die casting. The mounting frame 1 has a pair of fixed plates 7 symmetrically arranged above the upper mold 8 on the "U"-shaped inner wall. The mounting frame 1 has a guide groove 6 that cooperates with the fixed plates 7. The top of the upper plate 2 is equipped with a first control motor 3 that cooperates with the guide groove 6. The guide groove 6 is equipped with a drive shaft that drives the fixed plate 7 to move up and down. It is mostly a threaded shaft. The first control motor 3 controls its rotation, thereby driving the fixed plate 7 to move up and down, pressing down on the upper mold 8 to perform die casting. Based on the above structure, the bottom of the mounting frame 1 is provided with a limiting collar 25 in conjunction with the bottom forming plate 24. The center of the bottom forming plate 24 is provided with a connecting port 33 in conjunction with the limiting collar 25. The center of the top forming plate 18 is provided with a limiting shaft 20. The center of the limiting shaft 20 is provided with a through opening 21 in conjunction with the limiting collar 25. The through opening 21 passes through the limiting shaft 20 and connects the top and bottom of the top forming plate 18. The bottom of the upper plate 2 is provided with an optical camera 34 at the center point of the through opening 21 and the limiting collar 25. The mounting frame 1 is provided with a positioning point at the center of the limiting collar 25 in conjunction with the optical camera 34. In actual use, the upper mold 8 and the lower mold 10 are matched and installed. At this time, the optical camera 34 on the top is aligned with the center positioning point on the mounting frame 1. At this time, with the cooperation of the limiting collar 25 and the limiting shaft 20, the center positioning point can be aligned with the positioning point through the through opening 21, thereby aligning and installing the upper mold 8 and the lower mold 10.
