Pressure Die Casting

---

In this process, the liquid metal is injected at high speed and high pressure into a metal mould. A schematic view of high pressure die casting is given in Figure.

This equipment consists of two vertical platens on which bolsters are located which hold the die halves. One platen is fixed and the other can move so that the die can be opened and closed. A measured amount of metal is poured into the shot sleeve and then introduced into the mould cavity using a hydraulically-driven piston. Once the metal has solidified, the die is opened and the casting removed. Compared to Gravity die casting, both the machine and its dies are very expensive, and for this reason pressure die casting is economical only for high-volume production.

We have 4 machines for Cold chamber machines with 120T to 400T capacity and 4 Hot chamber machines with 50T to 100T capacity.
