PT Journal AU Pasko, J TI Die Casting Plunger Pressing Velocity and Analysis of Its Influence on a Permanent Deformation Value of a Casting Made from an ENAC 47100 Alloy SO Manufacturing Technology Journal PY 2010 BP 23 EP 26 VL 10 IS 1 DI 10.21062/ujep/x.2010/a/1213-2489/MT/10/1/23 DE die casting plunger pressing velocity; ENAC 47100 alloy; permanent deformation; homogeneity of a casting AB A die casting plunger velocity inside a filling chamber of a pressure die casting machine is one of the most significant factors of a pressure die casting. This velocity determines the regime of a die cavity filling, thus influencing both inner and surface quality of castings. A selection of a correct velocity of a die cavity filling depends on such factors as an alloy type, a casting complexity, a ratio of a slot area to a casting area, etc. A static pressure test can be used to determine a permanent deformation value by which a casting quality can be considered.
