Squeeze Casting(Liquid die forging )
- Squeeze casting is also called “Liquid die forging”. The principle of the process is to utilize mechanical high pressure(about 100MPa) to the entered liquid metal or semisolid metal of mould cavity, then be solidified to get casting parts.
- Because of high pressure solidification and plastic deformation concurrenced, casting parts become compact texture, grain refinement, without porosity and loose these weakness. Then go on deal with T6 heat treatment. The property of the squeeze casting is better than the normal casting obviously, and approached the level as the same kinds of alloy forging parts. Squeeze casting is a choiceness process for lightweight development.
- There are two important stages of the liquid die forging are mold filling and solidification, and two typical characters are low-speed mold filling and rapid high pressure solidification-feeding.
