Influence of refining process on the porosity of high pressure die casting alloy Al-Si

Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 2

Abstract

This study presents research results of the influence that refining and transfer of AlSi12S alloy on the porosity of high pressure diecastings. Tests were conducted under production conditions of Die-casting Foundry META-ZEL Sp z o.o. The operation of refining was conducted in a melting furnace, with the use of an FDU Mini Degasser. Decay of the refining effect was assessed by evaluating the porosity content and metallographic examination.
