A casting apparatus including a casting die having at least two die halves movable relative to one another between a closed position and an open position, the die halves each comprising a front surface in which a recess is formed, an adjusting device for moving one of the die halves, and a clamping device switchable between a clamping position when the die is closed, and a release position when the die is open. The clamping device is an integral part of the die halves and includes a counter bearing and a locking device. In the clamping position, the locking device is in a form fitting engagement with the counter bearing to lock the die halves in the closed position, and in the release position, the locking device is released from the counter bearing to release the die halves from each other for opening of the die.

A digital full-automatic die casting apparatus, including a longitudinal mounting plate, a mold arranged on a front surface of the longitudinal mounting plate, a mold locking device including a plurality of mold locking mechanisms surrounding a periphery of the mold, an injection device arranged on a back surface of the longitudinal mounting plate, and a PLC controller electrically connected to the mold locking device and the injection device respectively, The mold locking mechanism includes a mold locking fixed-point assembly arranged on the longitudinal mounting plate, and a hydraulic mold locking assembly connected to the mold locking fixed-point assembly; the mold locking fixed-point assembly includes a fixed-point servo motor arranged on the longitudinal mounting plate and electrically connected to the PLC controller, a fixed-point screw connected to the mold, a nut screwed to the fixed-point screw, and a transmission structure connected between the fixed-point servo motor and the nut.

The disclosure provides a local extrusion device for high-pressing casting. The local extrusion device for high-pressure casting includes an extrusion core sleeve, an extrusion rod, an extrusion oil cylinder and an extrusion oil cylinder piston. The extrusion oil cylinder includes the extrusion oil cylinder piston, the extrusion oil cylinder piston is connected with the extrusion rod, the extrusion rod is positioned in the extrusion core sleeve, and the extrusion core sleeve and the extrusion oil cylinder are fixed.

Provided is a casting mold including a lower mold 4 fixed on a base 3, a plurality of horizontal sliding molds 5 to 8 which slide freely on the base 3 between a mold-opening position and a mold-closing position, an upper mold 9, and sliding mechanisms 12, 25 which slide the horizontal sliding molds 5 to 8 in the sliding directions. When sliding the horizontal sliding molds from the mold-opening position to the mold-closing position, the sliding mechanisms 12, 25 cause force to act on a lower section of the horizontal sliding molds 5 to 8 and prevent force from acting on an upper section of the horizontal sliding molds 5 to 8.

A shot tube includes an inner bore for delivering molten material into a die-cast mold. The shot tube has an outer peripheral surface with at least one surface for receiving a locking member to lock the shot tube into an aperture in a fixed mold portion and an alignment structure for properly aligning the shot tube in the fixed mold portion. An opening receives molten material into the inner bore.

The present technology includes a hydraulic die-casting machine with electric motor actuated by an inverter, which provides an energy saving evaluation system with respect to a die-casting machine without inverter. The hydraulic die-casting machine includes an injection assembly provided with an injection piston for pressurizing case metal poured into a die and a hydraulic circuit for actuating the injection piston, a hydraulic pump for feeding the hydraulic circuit through a delivery line, an electric motor for actuating the hydraulic pump and an inverter for actuating the electric motor, and an evaluation system for evaluation of the energy savings provided by the present technology.

Method and system for producing a part using die casting or injection molding with a top die and undercut dies that are independently moveable from the top die. In one particular form, the method and system can include a top die and one or more undercut dies that can have a protrusion. The undercut dies can be lowered into a base of the system and moved away from each other, and the top die can be lowered into a receiving portion between the undercut dies. A molten liquid can be introduced into a space between the undercut dies and additional aspects of the system, and after cooling to form a part, the top die can be moved vertically to allow space for the undercut dies to be moved toward each other. The undercut dies can be moved vertically and the part can be removed.
