Gravity Die Casting

Gravity Die Casting is a permanent mould casting process, where the molten metal is poured from a vessel or ladle into the mould. The mould cavity fills with no force other than gravity, filling can be controlled by tilting the die.

Gravity die casting technology’s main advantages include: suitability for high-volume, automated production. minimum investment required for small and medium volume production. produces parts with excellent mechanical properties that are also suitable for heat treatment.

Gravity casting is among the oldest known processes for fabricating metals and metal alloys. It involves the pouring of molten metal from a crucible into a mold under only the force of gravity, without the use of pressurized gases, vacuums, or centrifugal force.
