Sharing important components of precision casting molds

Mold is the primary fixture in precision casting production, which determines the dimensional accuracy and surface roughness of castings. Many times, the use and management of molds are often mere formality, which not only fails to play their role but also greatly reduces their lifespan. This is something that precision casting enterprises should avoid. Today, Zhuzhou Kaifeng Precision Casting Factory will talk to you about the components of precision casting molds.

Precision casting molds generally include the cavity, core, forming part, positioning and guiding part, locking part, ejection part, etc. Each part has its own unique function. The forming part mainly forms the appearance and inner holes of the casting, such as the mold cavity, core, etc; The positioning and guidance part is mainly responsible for determining the position between modules and guiding the position of cores and live blocks, such as positioning pins, guide pillars, etc; The locking part is mainly responsible for fixing the mold blocks, such as bolts and screws; The ejection part is mainly responsible for the molding of wax parts. The above are all important components of the mold. But there is another important part of the mold, which is the parting surface.

The parting surface is an interface designed by humans to divide a casting into multiple parts based on the structure of the casting itself, the ease of mold manufacturing, and the accuracy of the casting. Due to various considerations involved, the parting surface is also an important component of the mold.
