Abstract

Effects of the processing parameters of a high-pressure die-casting (HPDC) process on the shrinkage defect of housing block compressor (HBC) were examined in this research. Because of the reduction of defect can increase the productivity of HBC that representing a good quality product, the processing parameters determining the quality of product must be optimized. In this study, the processing parameter of high speed in the range of 3.97 to 4.97 m/s and that of fast start point in the range of 293 to 333 mm were calculated and then the HBC samples of using the Al alloy of ADC12 were produced through the HPDC process. The shrinkage defects on HBC were characterized by visual inspection, radiography testing and microstructure examination. The result showed that the best parameters for reducing shrinkage defect of HBC by the HPDC process are 4.97 m/s of high speed and 313 mm of fast start point. The optimum parameters of high speed and fast start point were verified to contribute to producing a high quality of the HBC for the applications in automotive engine.
