A die casting machine of an embodiment includes: a base; a fixed die plate fixed onto the base and holding a fixed die; a movable die plate provided on the base to be movable in a mold opening and closing direction and holding a movable die to face the fixed die; an injection device filling a molten metal into a cavity formed by the fixed die and the movable die and applying a first pressure to the molten metal; a first pressurizing device pressurizing the molten metal filled in the cavity in a region other than a product region of the cavity and applying a second pressure to the molten metal; and a control device controlling the first pressurizing device so that the second pressure becomes higher than the first pressure.

A design for repair casting having a repairable ultra-large single-piece casting and a replacement part. The ultra-large single-piece casting includes a main body portion, at least one predefined replaceable portion integrally cast with the main body portion, and a cut-guide delineating the predefined replaceable portion from the main body portion. The cut-guide includes a continuous channel defined on an exterior surface of the single-piece casting. The cut-guide further includes a rib extending from a channel wall on the main body portion. A damaged replaceable portion is excisable from the main-body portion by cutting through the single-piece casting along the cut-guide. The excised damaged replaceable portion may be replaced with the replacement part, which has substantially the same geometry, dimensions, and mechanical properties as an undamaged replaceable portion. The replacement part may be joined to the main body portion by mechanical means or by welding.

Proposed are an apparatus for molding a material, and a method for molding a material by using the apparatus. The apparatus includes first and second fixed platens (110 and 120) provided as a pair and spaced a predetermined distance from each other by tie bars (150), a movable platen (140) movable along the tie bars (150) between the first and second fixed platens (110 and 120), a mold (200) which is provided with a movable mold (220) and a fixed mold (240) and which forms a molding space (260) that is capable of being open or closed as the movable mold (220) moves in a direction toward or away from the fixed mold (240), and a pressing block (300) selectively positioned between the first fixed platen (110) and the movable mold (220) such that the pressing block is capable of applying a pressure to the movable mold (220).

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a mold having both good adhesion resistance and smoothness, and a production method therefor. Provided is a mold made of a composite material comprising hard phases and metal phases characterized in that the mold has a reinforced layer made of hard phases for a working surface and the working surface satisfies the arithmetic average roughness Ra≤0.1 μm and skewness Rsk≤−0.01. Also provided is a production method for a mold made of a composite material comprising hard phases and metal phases characterized in having: a shaping step for working the surface of the mold made of said composite material and adjusting to Ra≤0.1 μm; and after the shaping step, a surface layer-modifying step for etching the surface of the mold adjusted to Ra≤0.1 μm and removing the metal phases near the surface.

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.
