Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical automation technology, and in particular relates to a slag removal and cake packing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Slag bale cakes are a mixture of metal fragments, oxide inclusions, and cold-stained metal that detach from the mold or workpiece surface during the removal of slag bales formed by the solidification of molten metal in die casting or metallurgical processes. Essentially, they are production waste and need to be removed by mechanical impact, pneumatic hammering, or extrusion using profiling fixtures to prevent defects such as porosity and slag inclusions in the castings and to ensure that the product's appearance and dimensional accuracy meet standard requirements.

[0003] Currently, die casting parts are mainly processed by manual operation, mechanical punching, or simple pneumatic devices to remove slag bales. Manual operation suffers from low efficiency, poor product consistency, and easy damage to workpieces. Mechanical punching requires special molds, resulting in high equipment costs and poor product compatibility. Simple pneumatic devices lack waste separation functions, leading to product and slag bale mixing. These methods generally suffer from insufficient automation, incomplete process separation, and poor equipment adaptability, which restricts further improvement in production efficiency and product quality.

[0004] To address these issues, we have developed a slag removal and cake removal mechanism. Utility Model Content
