A device for casting a metallic component comprising an outer undercut comprises a base body with a first end portion and a circumferential side wall comprising a tapering inner surface; a first die part that is insertable into the base body and that forms a first molding surface for the component to be cast; a plurality of side die parts, which are insertable into the base body and which, in the inserted state, are radially supported against the circumferential side wall of the base body and form a die ring comprising an inner molding surface for the component to be cast; a second die part which is moveable into the die ring formed by the side die parts to a casting position, and which forms a second molding surface for the component to be cast, wherein in the casting position, the second die part is arranged in a completely contact-free manner with respect to the first die part.

Provided are an anti-fatigue in-situ aluminium-based nanocomposite material for heavy-load automobile hubs and a preparation method therefor. By means of the fine adjustment of components and a forming process, in situ nano-compositing, micro-alloying and rapid compression moulding techniques are combined. That is, after the addition of elements Zr and B, an in-situ reaction occurs to form a nano ZrB2 ceramic reinforcement which is distributed in aluminium crystals and crystal boundaries and bonded to a metallurgical interface kept firm with the matrix. Moreover, with rare earth elements Er and Y and element Zr as addition ingredients and after the increase in the contents of Cr and Mn, a structure having fine aluminium crystal grains with a large number of micro-alloyed nano precipitated particles contained in the grains, fine and round eutectic silicon grains and a fine Mg2Si phase mainly dispersed inside the grains is obtained in the process of the rapid compression moulding and thermal treatment of the hubs; and thus, the tensile strength, the yield strength and the fatigue strength of an alloy are effectively improved.

An excellent cast and forged product that is superior in mechanical properties and has a microstructure and which may not only be a thin but also be a thick product can be made without using complicated process steps or equipment. A semisolid casting and forging method is provided in which a metal melt is teemed so that it is supercooled into a lower die in a press so controlled that the metal melt has a rate of solidification as desired, thereby preparing a semisolid slurry; an upper die is brought into contact with the semisolid slurry; and thereafter at least one of the upper and lower dies is moved relatively towards the other at a rate of movement between 0.1 and 1.5 m/sec, thereby compressing the semisolid slurry to mold it into a product. The semisolid slurry preferably has crystal grains of a grain size of 50 m or less.

A metal component is produced using a casting-and-forming tool by casting a melt of a metal alloy into the casting-and-forming tool, wherein the melt is poured from above into a base part or reservoir of the casting-and-forming tool at a first pressure, applying pressure to the melt between the base part and an upper part while the melt is solidifying to a component, wherein the solidifying melt is pressurized at a second pressure, which is larger than the first pressure, when the melt is at least partly, i.e., mostly solidified to form a component compressing the component by relative movement of the base part to the upper part so as to compress the component with a third pressure, which is higher than the second pressure.
