Die temperature in high-pressure die casting of A380 alloy is optimized by experimental observation and numerical simulation. Ladder frame (one part of the new motor EF7) with a very complicated geometry was chosen as an experimental sample. Die temperature and melt temperature were examined to produce a sound part. Die temperatures at the initial step and the final filling positions were measured and the difference between these values was calculated. ProCAST software was used to simulate the fluid flow and solidification step of the part, and the results were verified by experimental measurements. It is shown that the proper die temperature for this alloy is above 200°C.

This chapter presents the application of a neural network to the industrial process modeling of high-pressure die casting (HPDC). The large number of inter- and intradependent process parameters makes it difficult to obtain an accurate physical model of the HPDC process that is paramount to understanding the effects of process parameters on casting defects such as porosity. The first stage of the work was to obtain an accurate model of the die-casting process using a feed-forward multilayer perceptron (MLP) from the process condition monitoring data. The second stage of the work was to find out the effect of different process parameters on the level of porosity in castings by performing sensitivity analysis. The results obtained are in agreement with the current knowledge of the effects of different process parameters on porosity defects, demonstrating the ability of the MLP to model the die-casting process accurately.

The main objective of this research is to reduce the blowholes by analyzing the factors which are affected during the casting process. The process parameters are optimized and change is made in the design part to reduce the blowhole and to increase the efficiency of the high pressure die casting machines. Product manufactured from every manufacturing process shows some defects. For supplying quality product to the customer these defects must be reduced. In this work, an attempt is made to reduce the rejection due to the blowhole defect is found out through why-why analysis technique. Process capability of current high pressure die casting manufacturing process is checked. Manufacturing process found capable to manufacture the components. Current problem of blowhole defect is solved making an improvement in design of die which we insert. In gate directions are changed so as to obtain modified improved flow pattern. Using magma flow simulationsoftware existing and modified design has then been compared. It is found that, modified design shows superior results and using this, the defect of blowholes is minimized up to satisfactory level.
