Aluminium Foam and Magnesium Compound Casting Produced by High-Pressure Die Casting

摘要: Nowadays, fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions are two of the main focal points in vehicle design, promoting reduction weight vehicles by using lighter materials. The aim work is to evaluate influence different aluminium foams injection parameters order obtain compound castings with a compromise between obtained properties high-pressure die cast (HPDC) as cores into magnesium part. To on final casting products quality, type density foam, metal temperature, plunger speed, multiplication pressure have been varied within range suitable values. HPDC studied performing visual RX inspections, obtaining sound composite foam cores. presence an external continuous layer surface correct placement support conditions permit good quality parts. A processed magnesium-aluminium has developed for bicycle application combination mechanical and, especially, reduced demonstration
