Smart Speed: Improving Die Casting Efficiency Without Sacrificing Quality

By Cherry / July 4th, 2024 

Introduction

In modern manufacturing, die casting is an efficient and high-precision metal-forming process widely used in industries such as automobiles, electronics, and 

household appliances. 

However, with the intensification of market competition and the diversification of customer needs, improving production efficiency has become 

an important challenge facing the die-casting industry. 

This article will explore how to improve die-casting efficiency through smart speed technology without sacrificing quality, to gain an advantage for enterprises 

in the competition.

Overview of Die Casting Process

Introduction to Die Casting

Die casting is a metal casting process in which molten metal is injected into a mold under high pressure and quickly cooled to form. This method can produce metal 

parts with complex shapes and precise dimensions. Commonly used 

die-casting materials include aluminum, magnesium, zinc, and copper alloys.

Efficiency and quality challenges of traditional die-casting

In traditional die-casting processes, production efficiency and product quality are often difficult to balance. Increasing production speed may lead to a decline 

in product quality, such as an increase in defects such as pores and cracks. In order 

to ensure product quality, it is usually necessary to reduce production speed, which in turn affects output and cost.

Introduction of intelligent speed technology

Intelligent speed technology optimizes the die-casting process through automation, digitization, and intelligent means, improves production efficiency, and ensures 

product quality.

Automation technology

The application of automation technology in die-casting production mainly includes automatic pouring, automatic mold opening, automatic part removal, etc. The 

introduction of automation equipment not only improves production speed, 

but also reduces errors and quality problems caused by human operation.

Automatic pouring

The automatic pouring system can accurately control the injection speed and pressure of molten metal to ensure that the amount and temperature of metal injected 

each time are consistent, thereby improving the consistency and quality of 

the product.

Automatic mold opening and part removal

Automatic mold opening and part removal equipment can quickly and safely complete the opening of the mold and the removal of parts, reducing cycle time and 

improving production efficiency.

Digital technology

Digital technology realizes real-time monitoring and optimization of the die-casting process through data collection and analysis. The core of digital technology is 

to use sensors, the Internet of Things, and big data analysis to accurately 

control and adjust various parameters in the die-casting process.

Sensors and the Internet of Things

Sensors installed on die-casting machines and molds can monitor key parameters such as temperature, pressure, and speed in real-time. Through the Internet of Things 

technology, these data can be transmitted to the control system in 

real-time to achieve precise control of the production process.

Big Data Analysis

By analyzing the collected data, bottlenecks and problems in production can be discovered and improvement measures can be proposed. For example, by analyzing the 

changes in temperature and pressure during the pouring process, the 

pouring process parameters can be optimized to improve product quality and production efficiency.

Intelligent Technology

Intelligent technology uses advanced means such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to achieve autonomous optimization and intelligent decision-making 

of the die-casting process. These technologies can adaptively adjust 

production parameters to ensure optimal efficiency and quality under different production conditions.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence technology can predict and optimize the production process by learning historical data and experience. For example, based on historical 

production data, the artificial intelligence system can predict possible defects and 

adjust production parameters in advance to avoid defects.

Machine Learning

Machine Learning algorithms can continuously learn and improve from production data and optimize complex die-casting processes in real-time. For example, by 

learning from a large amount of production data, machine learning algorithms

can find the best combination of pouring speed and pressure to improve production efficiency and product quality.

Application cases of intelligent speed technology in die-casting

Automotive parts manufacturing

In the manufacturing of automotive parts, the quality and production efficiency of die castings are crucial. Some leading automotive parts manufacturers have 

introduced intelligent speed technology and achieved a double improvement in 

production efficiency and product quality through automation, digitalization, and intelligent means.

Electronic product shells have extremely high requirements for dimensional accuracy and surface quality. Through intelligent speed technology, production efficiency 

can be effectively improved and product quality can be guaranteed.

Case analysis

A certain electronic product manufacturer has increased the production efficiency of die-casting shells by 25% and the product qualification rate to 95% through 

intelligent speed technology. Specific measures include:

The introduction of automatic mold opening and removal equipment reduces cycle time and improves production efficiency.

Through digital technology, key parameters in the die-casting process are precisely controlled to ensure the consistency and quality of each product.

Using machine learning technology, production data is analyzed and optimized to discover and solve problems in production, further improving production efficiency

Future development of intelligent speed technology

Application of new materials

The application of new materials will further improve the efficiency and quality of the die-casting process. For example, the application of lightweight and 

high-strength alloy materials can reduce the amount of materials used and production 

time, and improve production efficiency and product quality.

Integration of advanced manufacturing technologies

The integration of advanced manufacturing technologies such as additive manufacturing (3D printing) and nanotechnology will bring more possibilities and innovations
