| Abstract |
: |
Pressure die casting is the process where molten metal is forced by pressure into mould. The usual pressure is from 10.3 – 14 MPa. This is the design of an experimental rig for pressure die casting of an Al-Si alloy automobile piston. Two varieties were designed and after applying all necessary design factors (stress analysis) one was optimized and the rig was fabricated and used for casting the piston. |
