Light Alloy Extrusion Casting Process CAD Design

Light alloy with a small proportion of high strength, good thermal conductivity, damping,machinability, easy molding, low prices, dimensionally stable, resource-rich, easy to recycle,pollution, etc., have been widely used in aerospace, transportation, light building materialsand other sectors. The disadvantagesare poor mechanical properties, easy to corrosion, poorheat resistance. For low conventional extrusion casting process design workload efficiencycharacteristics, this study developed a set of light alloy extrusion casting process CAD system.The CAD systems include gating system software parameters on the casting in squeezecasting process.The traditional process design experience both in design engineering and technicalpersonnel as the main basis for the runner did not fully consider the impact of turbulent flowin the quality of the casting, the former Soviet Union-Karl basis of summing up the500goldon the results of several experiments to study the cast within each cell type affected by thedegree of turbulence on the casting process parameters of the system performance andultimately affect the quality of the casting, casting gating system summarizes the design of asuitable light alloy extrusion method. In this paper, to Carl-gold design method as thetheoretical basis, the development of open casting gating system light alloy extrusion CADsoftware, system implementation pouring system parametric design, and for the runner, theflow rate of liquid metal cavity were turbulence test calculations.This paper analysis the squeeze casting processing parameter (mold temperature,extrusion pressure) on the mechanical properties of the alloy through tensile experiment andhardness testing.The optimized process parameters to the program.Finally, a practical and concrete example is used to prove the correctness of the system. aspecific example have proved the validity and usefulness of the system. This system canimprove the design efficiency and accuracy of light alloy squeeze casting process obviously: shorten the cycle of design calculations, ensure the quality of products, and increase theproduct rate.
