When it comes to the production of complex parts, choosing the best casting method becomes very critical. Every casting method comes with some benefits as well as limitations. In this article, we will explore two prominent casting methods Squeeze Casting vs High-Pressure Die Casting. The choice between both of them can significantly affect cost, product […]
Die Casting vs Squeeze Casting,What is the Difference? Read More »
Cold flakes are the chipped-off solidified metal alloy chunks under the shot sleeve. A layer of poured molten alloys in the cold chamber machine solidifies to initiate this defect. The plunger’s forward and backward movements push those chips into the casting and the runner. These fragments are primarily covered with an oxide layer with impurities like
Cold cracks refer to the separation or rupture in die casting due to dynamic or mechanical overload. This defect primarily occurs in cold chamber die casting when the liquid metal alloy within the mold collapses. The buildup of tensile stress during room-temperature cooling triggers the problem. A cold crack in casting differs considerably from warm, solidification,
