What is Vacuum Die Casting?

Vacuum die casting is a technique where the vacuum system is used in a die casting pressure, avoiding porosity and other casting defects. It creates a die cavity vacuum before casting. At first, the needed metals are melted for casting. Second, the installed vacuum pumps form a die cavity vacuum. Then, with extra pressure, the molten specific metals are injected into cavities. After minutes of waiting, the formed part is solidified and cooled down. Lastly, the created metal parts will be ejected from the die. This simple process of manufacturing metals is in-demand for various industries.

Vacuum Die Casting Advantages

The vacuum die casting process comes with various advantages, including the following:

  • Minimizes surface defects 
  • Eliminate chances of casting with porosity
  • Quickly reach the recesses due to vacuum cavity pressure
  • Allowing to achieve accurate parts and thinner cast
  • Fulfills denser with higher mechanical strength parts than others
  • Performing less post-production process is required, yielding components with stunning surface finishes
  • Features negligible gas pores, hence suitable for heat treatments

Cost-Effective Vacuum Die Casting

The vacuum die casting is faster to process and cheaper since they eliminate porosity. And that typically results in more rigid mechanical features and higher density. In such a case, fewer post-production process is involved in vacuum die casting. 

Moreover, the cavity’s negative pressure is formed by vacuum pumps. That achieves excellent surface finishing processes that don’t require more post-production, saving machining time. Even though there is a primary cost for pump installation, the post-process operation cost is reduced vastly. Therefore we conclude the vacuum die casting process is cost-effective.

Ordinarily, you can perform vacuum die casting process in numerous ways.

However, the main difference among the available techniques is based on vacuum formation in the system.

Nevertheless, vacuum creation and melt injection are the main actions taking place in this entire die casting process.

Principally, you can control the vacuum die casting process in three major ways as follows;

  1. Simultaneously injecting molten metal and vacuum creation
  2. Creating the vacuum inside the die cavity first and injecting the molten metal
  3. Vacuum creation and molten metal injection timing regulated by sensors.

Technically, you can do vacuum die casting using any of the abovementioned approaches.

However, the generalized process entails the following;

Metal Melting

You have to melt the specific metal before starting this particular process.

It can be a simple or complex task depending on how you approach it, but the essence of melting metal is to enhance the results.

Gradual Injection Of Melt Metal

The molten metal is poured into a cylinder where it is driven inside die cavity assisted by a piston.

It is then pushed slowly under low pressure into the die cavity.

Creating Vacuum

With the assistance of a vacuum pump, the vacuum valve opens and removes air inside the die cavity.

Once the air is removed, it creates adequate negative air pressure inside the die cavity, allowing vacuum valve closure.

High-pressure Rapid Injection

Once the vacuum is created, the molten metal is fast pushed inside die cavity under intense pressure.

Since there is an already existing vacuum, the molten metal evenly spreads inside the die cavity and seals all pores and voids.

Casting Solidification And Removal

The molten metal is allowed to cool down and harden inside the die cavity.

Dies are ejected, and the finished part is taken out to allow for next casting operation.

Which Features Should You Consider In Vacuum Die Cast Parts?
