Design & Analysis of Heat Sink High-Pressure Die Casting Component

Abstract

Die casting is one of the manufacturing process developed in early 1900’s. In die casting molten metal is injected into the mold with high pressure. Die casting can be distinguished by two types they are 1) Hot Chamber Die Casting 2) Cold Chamber Die Casting. In hot chamber die casting the molten metal is poured into the mold with the help of ladle wherein cold chamber die casting ladle is not used. With high pressure, the metal is injected into the mold this leads to some defects like dimensional inaccuracies, porosity, warpage, etc., and this paper states the design of hpdc die, gating & runner design, modification of runner and studying of hpdc defects by using Castle Run software.
