Liquid Forging Overview
Liquid Forging(Squeeze casting) is a process by which molten metal solidifies under pressure within closed dies positioned between the plates of a hydraulic press.The applied pressure and instant contact of the molten metal with the die surface produce a rapid heat transfer condition that yields a pore-free fine-grain casting with mechanical properties approaching those of a wrought product. The squeeze casting process is easily automated to produce near-net to net shape high-quality components.
