STRESS ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENTIAL HOUSING COVER MANU- FACTURED BY PRESSURE DIE CASTING PROCESS

Pressure die Casting is a manufacturing process, in which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then quickly pressure is applied with the help of mechanical piston and it is allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, and since pressure is applied against the die, is called pressure die casting. After piston is removed with the help of spring to complete the process during the process solidified part experiences pressure force which results in several types of stresses. These stresses act within the limit they will produce a good quality cast component. Often some of these stresses may be above or below normal and may also concentrate on some areas resulting in bad quality casted part. This will enhance the number of rejection of the manufactured components. The objective of the study is to Modelling and Stress analysis of component made by pressure die casting, minimise defects that are produced during casting, minimize the number of casting which are rejected during casting, Quality issue can be handled and the related solutions can be proposed and to minimize the cost of the component to be manufactured by Pressure die casting process.
