A pressing-in unit for a hot-chamber pressure diecasting machine permits an electro-mechanical drive for the casting plunger. In order to absorb the moments of inertia of the drive which occur during the switch-over of the casting plunger drive from the mold filling phase to the after-pressure phase, a spring element in the form of a plastic component or a liquid spring is inserted between the casting plunger and the pusher rod moved by the electric drive, which spring element is compressed by the additional path which the pusher rod still covers after the braking of the motor. The extent of the compression is selected such that the resulting axial force which is exercised by the plastic component or by the liquid spring is sufficient for causing the desired after-pressure in the molten metal.

Injection unit for a pressure die casting machine

A hot chamber die-casting machine has drive assemblies in the form of electrical servomotors instead of hydraulic cylinders for driving and pressing a feed bush to the nozzle. The feed rate of the servomotors is adjustable. In order to avoid the influence of heat from the smelter and the furnace, the rotational axes of the servomotors located above the smelter and the furnace are connected through an angle drive to the spindle drive and aligned approximately vertically. This makes it possible to achieve a time-optimized and precise feed regulation that is independent of temperatures which develop.

Hot chamber die-casting machine

A vertical adjustment device for a mold closing unit of a hot chamber die-casting machine is provided with a shear mechanism. An electrical servomotor is provided as a drive assembly for spreading the shear mechanism apart, with the axis of the servomotor being parallel to the guide surface for the shear mechanism and driving, through an angle transmission, a spindle oriented at less than 90&deg; with respect to the drive axis of the servomotor. One end of each of the two lever pairs of the shear mechanism is connected pivotably with the closing unit or with the machine frame. The other ends are supported on the guide surface and the machine frame and on a guide surface of the closing unit.

Mold closing unit especially for a hot chamber die-casting machine

An apparatus for the production of die-cast parts is described, wherein the melt is pressured under a low pressure into a die where it solidifies. A casting unit has a drive piston guided in a casting cylinder and connected to a casting piston. The casting piston is equipped with terminal stops in both directions. The casting piston, which has a large cross-section, is able to travel into a movable half of the die. The casting cylinder is displaceably supported on a guide in the direction of the axis of the drive piston, with the terminal stops being adjustable relative to the drive piston and relative to each other. A signal transducer is associated with the stroke path of the drive piston and detects the end position of the casting piston within the moving half of the die. Thus, in a so-called pressure mold casting process, different casting strokes may be effected with the same machine, and both the end of the stroke of the casting piston and the onset of the casting stroke may be adapted to different dies by an adjustment of the entire casting unit.
