Abstract

The invention discloses a crystallization pressurization method for metal mold low-pressure casting molding of an aluminum alloy vehicle chassis casting. The method continues a traditional low-pressure casting process of the aluminum alloy vehicle chassis casting in the phases of liquid rise, mold filling and crystallization pressurization; and the liquid rise pressure and the mold filling pressure are controlled within 18-21 kPa and 30-35 kPa. The crystallization pressurization is divided into two stages according to the condensation ending time of a characteristic part A: in the first stage: in the stage from the end of the mold filling phase to the condensation end of the characteristic part A, the crystallization pressurization pressure is increased to 80-150 kPa; and in the second stage: after the condensation of the characteristic part A is finished, the crystallization pressurization pressure is quickly increased to 160-1000 kPa, and the pressurization speed is 10-40 kPa / s. Then, the pressure keeping stage and the pressure relief are performed. The method prominently improves the condensation feeding effect and the casting mechanical performance, prevents such defects as molten aluminum splashing and casting flanges and burrs, and prominently reduces the requirements on the mold structure and the casting mold clamping force.
