Metal Casting Parts Design Suggestions
Effective metal casting part design ensures optimal performance, reduced defects, and cost efficiency. Key suggestions include uniform wall thickness (1.5-4 mm), proper draft angles (2-3°), rounded fillets, realistic tolerances, and strategic gate placement. Consider rib thickness (max 60% of wall thickness), ejection pin location, and adequate venting. These design elements help enhance mold flow, part strength, and overall quality.
Design Elements
Specific Value/Range
Wall Thickness
- Typical thickness: 1.5 mm to 4 mm. - Minimum thickness: 1.0 mm (for small, thin parts). - Maximum thickness: 6 mm (with a more complex design or requiring post-processing).
Draft Angles
- Minimum draft angle: 1° for vertical walls. - Recommended draft angle: 2-3° for easier ejection and better part finish.
Fillets and Radii
- Fillet radius: 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm depending on the size of the part. - Minimum internal radii: 0.5 mm for ease of flow and mold integrity.
Tolerances
- General tolerance: ±0.1 mm for parts with medium complexity. - Fine tolerances: ±0.05 mm (for high-precision parts). - Common tolerance for die-cast parts: ±0.2 mm for large, low-precision parts.
Hollow Sections/Cores
- Core wall thickness: 1.5 mm to 3 mm (depends on alloy and part size). - Minimum distance between core and outer walls: 2 mm.
Ejection Pins and Holes
- Ejection pin diameter: Typically 4 mm to 10 mm. - Hole diameter for pin placement: 5 mm to 12 mm, depending on pin size and placement. - Ejection pin location: Place in non-critical areas (avoid visible surfaces).
Ribs and Bosses
- Rib thickness: 60% of the wall thickness (max). - Rib height: Typically 2 to 3 times the rib thickness. - Boss thickness: 2-3 mm for small bosses; 4-5 mm for larger ones.
Ventilation and Gas Escape
- Vent hole diameter: Typically 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm. - Vent location: Place at the highest point of the cavity to allow gas to escape easily.
Casting Material
- Aluminum alloys: A380, A356 (for good fluidity and strength). - Zinc alloys: Zamak 3, Zamak 5 (for precision and cost-effective casting). - Magnesium alloys: AZ91D (for lightweight applications).
Gate Design
- Gate size: Typically 2-4 mm wide, depending on the part size. - Gate location: Place in areas with thick sections to ensure uniform filling (edge gates, pin gates, or fan gates are common).
Surface Finish
- As-cast finish: Roughness between Ra 3.2 µm to 6.3 µm. - Polished finish: Ra 0.8 µm or smoother, depending on post-processing.
