    The document discusses how the gate thickness of an aluminum die casting mold affects the filling of the mold cavity. Experiments showed that when the gate thickness was increased from 1mm to 4mm, the cavity was completely filled with melt. The document also provides a formula to calculate the optimal gate thickness based on the diameter of the sprue and runner.

    The gate thickness of an aluminum die casting mold is an important factor that affects the
    filling of the mold cavity. The study is especially focused on clarifying the relation between
    the gate size and casting property. Die casting when the gate thickness is changed from 1
    to 4 mm, shows that cavity is filled completely with the melt at 4mm.

    The gate thickness can be calculated using the following formula :

    Gate thickness = 0.5 * (Diameter of sprue + Diameter of runner) * (1 + √2)

    Where:

    Diameter of sprue: The diameter of the sprue is usually taken as 1.5 times the
    diameter of the runner.
    Diameter of runner: The diameter of the runner is usually taken as 0.5 times the
    maximum thickness of the casting.
