Influence:

Evacuation capacity > Metal at the gate

Maintenance frequency > Downtimes

Size of overflows / vacuum channels> Reduce the amount of metal recycling

Projected area > Locking force of the die casting machine

To start the vacuum channel lay out:

Fondarex is recommending rather small overflow volume for the following reasons:

− Less alloy passing the die cavity, less die wear - more parts per die, die temperature control !

− Less alloy recycling

− The «switch over» point from velocity to pressure is easier to find

− The dynamics of the DCM work better

− Therefore better micro structure of the die cast part

− The projected area can be kept lower

− Therefore less flash

− Less flash means better vacuum, better productivity, better results, geometricaly preziseparts!

− If a modification is necessary, it is much easier to open a small overflow than to weld a large one

The vacuum channel basics:

Force during and after solidification

- Use your DC knowledge(think of extraction!)

- Use new machiningtechnologies

- Use both die sides- Do not use too much of

parting line area- Machine nice surfaces- Use radiuses- Use mobile and fixed die
