Three Crucial Controlling Aspects of Die Casting

Proper temperature control is essential throughout the die casting process. This includes controlling the temperature of the molten metal, the die or mold temperature, and the temperature of auxiliary equipment such as the ladle and the shot sleeve. The temperature of the molten metal must be carefully monitored and maintained within a specified range to achieve optimal flow characteristics and prevent defects like cold shuts or porosity. Similarly, controlling the die temperature ensures proper solidification of the cast part and helps prevent issues such as thermal fatigue or warping.
