What are the reasons for short shots in the processing of die casting parts?
Just like the injection molding process, die casting products will also have the defects of short shot in the processing, and what are the reasons for causing this issue?
The main reason for the short shot of aluminum dies casting product is that the aluminum material has high thermal conductivity and low melting point, which causes the melted material to cool before filling the cavity. To avoid the short shot problem in die casting products, the following problems should be noticed:
1. Increase the processing temperature.
2. Improve the heat insulation inside the die casting mold, or spray insulation material on the surface of the mold.
3. Improve the gating system to make the melted material flow more smoothly and shorten the filling time.
4. Adjust the wall thickness of the product to ensure that the product is suitable for the die casting process.
