Failures of dies for die-casting of aluminium alloys

Die-casting dies for casting of aluminum alloys fail because of a great number of different and simultaneously operating factors. Material selection, die design, and thermal stress fatigue generated by the cyclic working process (heat checking), as well as to low and inhomogeneous initial die temper...
