The Definitive Guide to Die Casting Process: Techniques, Applications, and Best Practices
Die casting is a widely used manufacturing process for producing complex and precise metal components with high efficiency and accuracy.
Die casting defects
Die casting defects are flaws or imperfections that occur during the production of metal parts using a die casting process. Some common types of die casting defects are porosity, cold shuts, flash, misruns, hot tears, and soldering. Die casting defects can affect the quality, functionality, and appearance of the final product. As a professional engineer, I strive to prevent and minimize die casting defects by optimizing the design, material, process, and quality control of the die casting operation.

The latest technology, industrial status and industrial development of die casting die
Die casting die is a tool for casting metal parts, a tool for completing the die casting process in a special die casting die forging machine. The basic process of die casting is: the liquid metal is filled into the cavity of the mold at low speed or high speed. The mold has an active cavity surface. It is forged under pressure with the cooling process of the liquid metal, which not only eliminates the shrinkage cavity and porosity defects of the blank, but also makes the internal organization of the blank reach the broken grain of the forged state....

The term "3D printing" is generally used synonymously with "additive manufacturing". This was not always the case, and in 2007 3D printing and 3D printers would have been expressed as extruded materials or plastics for desktop machines. During this time, many industrial users of additive manufacturing adopted the term "additive manufacturing" or RP to refer to processes such as laser sintering or adhesive injection processes. The term 3D printing has become particularly popular in the last decade because of the popularity of desktop printers and the maker movement. Because of its popularity in the media, these terms are now being...

Injection mold design needs to pay attention to what points Product wall thickness All kinds of plastics have a certain wall thickness range, generally 0.5~4mm, when the wall thickness is more than 4mm, it will cause too long cooling time, shrinkage printing and other problems, should be considered to change the product structure. Uneven wall thickness will cause surface shrinkage. 壁厚不均会引起气孔和熔接痕。 To strengthen The reasonable application of stiffeners can increase product rigidity and reduce deformation. The thickness of reinforcement must be ≤ (0.5~0.7) T product wall thickness, otherwise it will cause surface shrinkage. The single-side slope of the reinforcement should...

Of all the materials that can be 3D printed, glass remains one of the most challenging. However, scientists at the ETH Zurich research centre in Switzerland are working to change this with a new and better technology for printing glass. Printing glass objects is now possible and the most common methods involve either extruding molten glass, or selectively sintering (laser heating) ceramic powder to convert it into glass. The former requires high temperatures and therefore heat-resistant equipment, while the latter does not allow for the production of particularly complex objects.ETH's new technology aims to improve on both of these disadvantages....
