    Abstract: A die casting furnace system includes a die casting holding furnace unit defining a cavity for holding a molten metal. A dosing unit is disposed within the cavity and defines a dosing area disposed in fluid communication with the cavity for receiving the molten material during a pressurization of the cavity. The cavity of said die casting holding furnace unit has a first storage capacity and the dosing area of said dosing unit has a second storage capacity being less than the first storage capacity. An ultrasonic unit is operably coupled with the finitely sized dosing area and is configured to introduce vibration into the received molten material for facilitating the removal of gases from the received molten material. The treatment of the finitely sized dosing area with the ultrasonic unit leads to improved metal cleanliness and accuracy that is not achievable with prior art systems.

    Abstract: A low pressure die-casting machine has a ladle unit, a molten metal pressurizing unit, a switching unit, and a controller. The ladle unit has an intake/discharge port with a cross-sectional area in a range of from 20 to 80 mm.sup.2 so as to be capable of successively supplying the molten metal to a desired location. The molten metal pressurizing unit is switchable between two positions. One position is for selectively supplying compressed air to the ladle to positively discharge the molten metal from the ladle through the intake/discharge port. The other position is for selectively isolating the ladle in order to retain the molten metal therein. The switching unit is connected between the molten metal pressurizing unit and the ladle. It is switchable between first and second change-over positions. The first change-over position is for providing fluid communication between the ladle and the molten metal pressurizing unit. The second change-over position is for providing fluid communication between the ladle and the atmosphere. The controller is connected to the molten metal pressurizing unit for selectively driving the molten metal pressurizing unit. The controller is also connected to the switching unit for driving the switching unit.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for pressure casting of metal parts which possibly contain fibres of ceramic material. The apparatus includes a cold chamber, and comprises a lower fixed plate 1, an upper movable plate 2, and a die 3 disposed between the upper plate and the lower plate, with the lower plate being provided with an injection means for liquid metal comprising an injection sleeve 5 having a piston 6 supported on a rod 7 slidable in the sleeve. The metal is contained in a sealed vessel connected to the injection sleeve by a conduit 9 by way of an orifice 8 in the sleeve, with a gas inlet in the vessel connected to a source of gas for selectively placing the liquid metal in the vessel under a gas pressure P2 which causes the flow of liquid metal in the conduit towards the sleeve. A second gas inlet is located in the conduit near the orifice, this second gas inlet able to selectively create a gas pressure P1 in a pocket adjacent to the inlet, depending on the position of the piston and the gas pressure P2.

    Abstract: A holding or smelting furnace for discharging measured quantities of molten metal includes a furnace wall defining a furnace chamber adapted to contain molten metal having an upper free melt level, and at least one melt outlet channel extending from the furnace chamber through the furnace wall at a level below the free melt level. A sliding gate valve is mounted on the furnace wall at the outlet channel and is movable between a closed position blocking the outlet channel and an open position unblocking the outlet channel. Control structure maintains the free melt level at a constant level within the furnace chamber, and thereby maintains the hydrostatic pressure of the molten metal within the furnace chamber at a constant value during discharge of the molten metal. Regulating structure is operable independently of the operation of the control structure and moves the sliding gate valve between the closed and open positions thereof at a predetermined timed cycle.

    Abstract: A process for controlling a vessel for a repeated pouring of a liquid under low pressure into blind sand moulds. The process comprises after each pouring, lowering the liquid in the pouring tube only to a level which is equal to or substantially equal to a constant predetermined level in the vicinity of the outlet of the tube. According to the invention, the level of the liquid in the tube and the pressure of the driving gas prevailing in the vessel are measured directly and the inlet and exhaust of the driving gas are controlled as a function of these measurements so as to ensure, for all the pourings, a pressure rise time and a pressure drop time which are predetermined and substantially constant. A device is described for carrying out this process.
