Die Cast MagnesiumFirst, the mold to be used for the die casting process is sprayed with lubricant to control its temperature, and then sealed. Second, molten magnesium is shot into the die cast mold under high pressure, and this pressure is maintained until the cast has become solid. Third, the die is opened and the shot is removed from the mold by ejector pins. Lastly, the scrap is separated from the castings.
The magnesium is melted in a separate chamber before being fed into the cast. This takes a longer time than using its
counterpart, the hot-chamber machine, where pools of molten metal are utilized. However, since magnesium has a very high melting point, it would be much more difficult to use this machine.
