BASIC TYPES OF DIE-CASTING
Hot chamber castings
 Fast cycling times
 No handling or transfer of molten metal
 Used with zinc, tin, and lead-based alloys
BASIC TYPES OF DIE-CASTING
Heated-manifold direct injection die casting
 Molten zinc is forced though a heated manifold
 Next through heated mini-nozzles directly into the die cavity
 Eliminates the need for sprues, gates and runners
BASIC TYPES OF DIE CASTING
Cold-chamber machines
 Used for materials not suitable for hot chamber machines
 Typical materials
 Aluminum, magnesium, copper, and high-aluminum zinc
 Longer operating cycle than hot-chamber
 High productivity
