A composition of the wear-resistant material of the present invention includes high-temperature resistant skeleton metal materials, ceramic fiber materials and ceramic particle materials with the mass ratio of (10-60):(1-30):(10-70). The high-temperature resistant skeleton metal materials are foam metal or high-temperature resistant metal fibers. The wear-resistant material is good in wear-resistance, high in tenacity, suitable for occasions with high requirements for wear-resistance and tenacity and capable of being locally attached to the surface of the light metal alloy matrix to improve the wear-resistance and tenacity of the light metal alloy matrix under high temperature conditions. The locally-reinforced light metal matrix composites of the present invention are the light metal alloy matrix locally-reinforced through the wear-resistant material. A manufacturing method of the locally-reinforced light metal matrix composites of the present invention is to metallurgically bond the wear-resistant layer with the light metal alloy matrix is through the squeeze casting technique.

The present disclosure relates to a casting apparatus including a support block, a die provided on one surface of the support block and configured to form a cavity in cooperation with the support block, and an insert member provided to be movable relative to the support block and configured to selectively move between a first position at which the insert member is received in the cavity and a second position at which the insert member is extracted out of the cavity, thereby obtaining an advantageous effect of simplifying a structure and a manufacturing process.

A mold is used to form a solder joint to join the distal end of the guidewire to a wire coil. The mold has a cavity that can have different configurations so that the solder joint can be any of bullet shaped, micro-J shaped, cone shaped, truncated cone shaped, or have a textured surface.

A casting method includes preparing a thin shell mold which is sintered and placed in a box. Sands are buried in the box to encompass the thin shell mold. The pressure chamber is depressurized. The casting material is filled into the thin shell mold, such that the thin shell mold is disposed at a vacuum state. Then, the negative pressure of the pressure chamber is released. Then, the pressure chamber is pressurized, to form a pressure difference which presses the casting material to flow into the thin shell mold, thereby finishing the casting work. The temperature of the casting material is reduced, and the pressure in the pressure chamber is increased. Then, the casting material is cooled to form a casting product. Then, the thin shell mold is broken, and the casting product is removed.
