The metal injection can be roughly divided into four steps;
1. liquid injection process: the liquid metal is injected into the mold cavity with only a small pushing force due to the good fluidity of the liquid metal.
2. And (3) a mold filling process: as the die cavity is progressively filled with metal, the shot runner resistance increases, requiring higher pressures to fully fill the die.
3. And (3) extrusion process: the mold cavity is completely filled with metal and the surface of the casting has partially solidified. To make the casting fit finely to the mold cavity and to compensate for shrinkage porosity during solidification, the shot system needs to add a large shot force, e.g., above 80Mpa, for several seconds.
