Summary: | The objectives of this research are to design, making and testing the die
casting machine to determine the optimal process parameters and to know the
performance of the die casting machine.
Die casting method was cast metal by injecting molten metal into molds to
the pressure. Based on the planning, the total dimensions of machine 2304 x 332 x
447 mm with 2 hydraulic cylinders which each step length of 390 mm and 400
mm. The research method from die casting machine starts by using the aluminum
melting furnace separate from the die casting machine up to 700-850oC
temperature and heating the mold until the temperature 250-350oC, and then the
liquid metal poured into the die casting machine using a ladle through a cylinder
injection. After molten metal in the injection cylinder, hydraulic plunger would
press it into the mold cavity, injection pressure was maintained during the
freezing process. Later, when the casting product was ,freezing, casting mold was
opened and the object would be automatically exit the ejector mechanism.
The result test from die casting machine casting show that a good product
on the parameters: 1. molding temperature of 300oC, melting temperature of
700oC, pressure of 50 kg/cm2, 2. Molding temperature of 350oC, melting
temperature of 750oC, pressure of 75 kg/cm2. The materials of this research is
using car wheel with the content of Al: 91.43% and Si: 7.79%. Beginning the
process required for melting aluminum to a temperature of ± 700oC is 30 minutes,
spraying the die coat is 5 seconds, the process of injection is 8 seconds, the
solidification process is 60 seconds and release product from the mold is 2
seconds. So the time required for the initial process is 31 minutes 15 seconds,
while for the next process only takes 75 seconds. |
