Die-Casting Machine Connector
Die-Casting Machine Connector is a important application in the die casting process, mainly for the transmission of force and motion.
Depending on the design and needs, the connector can be available in a variety of materials and construction forms to meet specific functional requirements.
Material selection
Connecting rods often need to be high strength and abrasion resistant to withstand the high loads and wear of the die casting process.
For example, the connecting rod material of the mechanical structure uses carbon steel (such as S45C) or more to avoid wear or deformation due to insufficient strength.
In addition, die-cast zinc-based or aluminum-based alloys are suitable for different application scenarios.
Structural design
The design of the connecting rod needs to consider its specific role in the die-casting machine.
For example, in the floating piston connection structure of the die-casting machine.
The connecting rod and pressurized piston rod are a single unit.
The O-ring on the connector is eliminated to improve the stability of the oil pressure.
In addition, auxiliary support rods and V-shaped support frames, enhance their strength and prevent deformation.
Functional Applications
Connecting rods perform a variety of functions in a die casting machine.
Including transmitting forces, connecting components, and protecting other components.
For example, the injection rod can be connected to the punch by means of a connecting rod.
Cooling channels are used to improve the cooling effect and thus extend the service life.
In addition, the connecting rod can also be used to connect the push top cylinder.
And the mold side push top plate to realize automatic separation and connection.
Innovative design
With the development of technology, the design of connecting rods is also constantly innovating.
For example, in a die-casting device for low-pressure casting casings.
The connecting rod achieves high-frequency intermittent traction through a servo-motor traction system.
And the pitch is adjusted according to the diameter of the casting rod to ensure stable operation.
The latest material technology of Die-Casting Machine Connector
Aluminum alloy extrusion casting
At present, the aluminum alloy connecting rod of the air compressor mainly uses ZL108, ZL202 and other materials, and the extrusion casting process is applied.
This process crystallizes and solidifies the liquid aluminum alloy material under pressure.
And can obtain high-quality connecting rods with dense and uniform structure, fine grains, good mechanical properties, smooth surface and low machining amount.
Which meets the requirements of lightweight design and is conducive to the improvement of air compressor performance.
Magnesium alloy die casting
Magnesium alloy is widely used in automotive parts due to its lightweight properties.
Marking the project has entered the mass production stage.
In addition, Baowu Magnesium signed a strategic cooperation agreement with LG Electronics to jointly develop a strategic letter of intent for magnesium alloys.
High thermal conductivity aluminum-magnesium alloy material
Haili New Materials has a complete production process system in the production of magnesium alloy and aluminum alloy precision die castings.
They overcame the problems of high viscosity and easy adhesion of superconducting materials.
And significantly improved the yield and stability of die casting.
This material helps to improve the thermal conductivity of die castings and meet the needs of diverse 5G base station aluminum-magnesium alloy die casting products.
High Toughness Die-Cast Aluminum Alloy
SUMIKALLOY T-31D is a high-toughness die-cast aluminum alloy with excellent casting performance, better than ADC12 alloy.
Suitable for engine connecting rods, agricultural machinery engine connecting rods and bicycle components.
High-strength wear-resistant die-casting aluminum alloys
ST-K, ST-J, ST-H and other high-strength wear-resistant die-casting aluminum alloys have excellent wear resistance.
Which can be selected according to the requirements of strength, corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity.
And are suitable for automatic transmission valve bodies, automobile compressor sliding parts and wear-resistant transmission forks.
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP)
Although carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) have not yet achieved satisfactory fatigue strength and are costly.
At this point，their lightweight and high-strength properties make them have great potential for future applications.
Haichen Die-Casting Machine Connector maintenance
Regular inspection and tightening
Check the looseness of the connecting fasteners every week to ensure that all the connecting parts are fastened in place to avoid equipment failure caused by loosening.
Check the position of the nut of the bar every month to ensure that it is in the correct position and prevent the connecting rod from falling off due to loose nuts.
Hydraulic system maintenance
Check the hydraulic oil level and pipeline leakage to ensure the normal operation of the hydraulic system.
Change the hydraulic oil regularly, every 500 hours and every 2000 hours thereafter to maintain the cleanliness and viscosity of the hydraulic oil.
Check the filter element in the hydraulic system and clean or replace it regularly to ensure the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil.
Maintenance of the lubrication system
Regularly lubricate the non-automatic lubricated sliding friction surface to ensure that the sliding part of the connecting rod is fully lubricated.
Check the working condition of the automatic lubrication system to ensure its normal operation.
Maintenance of the cooling system
Regularly inspect the cooling system to ensure that the cooling effect is good and prevent the equipment from overheating.
Check the cooling water channels to ensure that the water flows smoothly and avoid equipment failures caused by poor cooling.
Maintenance of the electrical system
Regularly inspect the electrical control box to keep the interior dry and tidy to prevent foreign objects from entering.
So,check the working status of electrical wiring connections and electrical components to ensure the safety and reliability of the electrical system.
Operation specifications
In brief，operators need to be trained to understand the use of equipment.
Maintenance knowledge and safe operation specifications to ensure the normal operation of equipment and personnel safety.
Comply with safety operating procedures such as checking the range of motion of the machine before start-up.
Checking connection fasteners and pressure changes before using high-pressure nitrogen, etc.
