A casting method that applies air pressure or inert gas pressure for casting! Production preparation support is available.
"Low-pressure casting method" is a type of casting method that uses a metal mold. In contrast to "gravity casting method," which utilizes gravity (atmospheric pressure) to pour molten metal into the cavity of the mold, the "low-pressure casting method" uses air pressure or inert gas pressure to perform the casting. At Matsumura Seiko, we can provide production preparation support such as low-pressure casting technology, manufacturing of low-pressure casting molds, and material inspection guarantees. For more details, please contact us. 【Advantages】 ■ High-density aluminum castings can be produced - Molten aluminum is quietly flowed into the mold, resulting in minimal gas entrapment. ■ High-density aluminum castings can be produced - Solidification occurs sequentially from areas far from the pouring gate, maintaining pressure until the pouring gate solidifies. ■ High yield: Compared to sand casting and gravity casting, no risers are needed. ■ Complex products can be produced - Similar to gravity mold casting, sand cores can be used, allowing for the casting of hollow parts and complex castings. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information
【Disadvantages】 ■ Long cycle time ・ Molten aluminum fills the mold slowly, and the high mold temperature results in a slow cooling rate. ■ Coating is required for the mold ・ Since the molten aluminum cools slowly within the mold, it is prone to reacting with the mold, necessitating a coating on the mold surface that serves as the boundary. * For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
