Abstract
The shrinkage porosity that was caused by the insufficient feeding during solidification, was a common defect in the semi-solid die casting process. This defect decreased significantly the mechanical properties of the casting. In order to avoid the shrinkage porosity in casting, the die design, slug preparation and die casting process were carefully considered. In this study, a designed mold was used to make the sequential solidification of the slug. The process parameters, including intensification pressure, die temperature and biscuit thickness of the casting, were studied to show their influence on shrinkage porosity defects. The experimental results show that the high intensification pressure, high die temperature and long biscuit can be beneficial to obtain castings with no shrinkage porosity.
