AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing technology, when the piston is cast, the molten aluminum directly enters the piston casting cavity, which leads to poor feeding and watermarks in the piston cavity, affecting the piston performance.

Method used

Design a piston gating structure including a sprue, a gating system, and a secondary runner. Molten aluminum enters the bottom of the piston casting chamber at an angle through the secondary runner and continues to flow out at the horizontal height of the gating system, thereby changing the flow path of the molten aluminum and reducing shrinkage of the piston skirt and watermarks in the inner cavity.

Benefits of technology

By optimizing the flow path of molten aluminum, the water ripples inside the piston cavity were improved, thus enhancing the piston's forming quality.
