Pressure Die Casting Standards

This material specification applies to zinc alloys for use in high pressure die cast automotive applications and other allied industries. Zinc die casting alloys are specified by chemical composition. The alloys indicated represent common materials for identical product...

This document applies to high pressure die casting machines: a) hot-chamber die casting machines (horizontal die closing system), and b) horizontal cold-chamber die casting machines (horizontal die closing system). It applies to high...

This material specification covers commercial zinc alloys in ingot form for remelting for the manufacturing of high pressure die castings used in automotive applications and other allied industries. Zinc alloy ingots are specified by the chemical composition. Material...

This material specification covers the basic requirements for magnesium alloy ingots and is to be used for initial source validation of the ingot manufacturing process. It is implicit in this specification that the magnesium alloy ingots shall be of acceptable quality such that they can be cast...

This document applies to high pressure die casting machines: a) hot-chamber die casting machines (horizontal or vertical die closing system), and b) horizontal/vertical cold-chamber die casting machines (horizontal or a vertical die...

This European Standard specifies a liquid penetrant testing method for castings produced in conventional sand moulds, by gravity and low-pressure die casting, except for investment castings and high-pressure die castings. This European...
