Gravity Casting Process for Automotive & Transportation Parts & Components
When it comes to automotive parts and transportation components, you need to partner with a foundry who has the strongest, best quality, most effective, and most reliable equipment and materials. This is why we utilize proven casting and development processes that deliver you the components and equipment pieces you know are up to the job. This is where the gravity die casting process comes in.
Gravity die casting is a form of die casting, usually deployed in conjunction with non-ferrous alloys such as copper, zinc, and aluminum. The process results in ultra-strong, ultra-durable alloy fabrications that are ideal for heavy-duty use. Our customers then deploy these components and equipment pieces in high-pressure, high-strain environments, where they perform with aplomb.
The Gravity Die Casting Process
Phase One: The Mold
The mold is critical to the success of the process. Sand cores are used to craft the shape of the mold, or die, in order to achieve a perfect fit for your component. This sand casting procedure helps us to translate even your most complex needs into a suitable component. The mold is then heat-treated so it can withstand the high temperature of the molten metal. Then a die release agent is applied so the component can be easily removed from the mold on completion.
Phase Two: Molten Metal Pouring
Molten metal is poured into the mold, and the casting process begins.
Phase Three: Manipulation
For more complex component shapes, it may be necessary to manipulate the molten metal within the mold cavity. This is achieved by tilting and maneuvering the mold so the metal reaches each and every recess within the cavity.
Phase Four: Cooling
With the metal material in place, cooling can begin. The cooling process hardens the metal within the mold in order to cast a highly resilient, ultra-durable finished component, ready for the stresses and strains of operation. Once the metal is sufficiently cooled, the component is removed from the die.
Phase Five: Refining
There will typically be rough or sharp edges on the component after its removal from the die. During the refining phase, these elements are removed, and the finished component is made ready for use.
