Low-Pressure Casting

 Low-pressure casting uses gas pressure (0.01-0.05MPa) to steadily push molten metal from below into the mold.

Core Features and Advantages:

  1. Controlled Filling:

    • Laminar flow reduces oxidation and slag inclusion.
    • Porosity rate <0.5%, ideal for complex thin-walled parts (wall thickness 2-5mm).
  2. High Material Utilization:

    • No risers are needed, achieving a metal yield >95% (compared to ~70% in gravity casting).
    • Reduces energy consumption by 20%.
  3. Precision and Consistency:

    • Dimensional tolerance: ±0.2mm.
    • Surface roughness: Ra 6.3-12.5μm, enabling near-net-shape production for parts like automotive suspension arms and motor housings.
  4. Process Versatility:

    • Compatible with aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys.
    • Integrates localized pressurization techniques to eliminate shrinkage defects.
