摘要

Process for operating a die casting machine comprises using an automatically closing valve (14) which closes at the end of the mold filling phase. An Independent claim is also included for a die casting machine for carrying out the process comprising a melt storage container (2) coupled with a filling chamber (4) in which a plunger is moved. The plunger presses an amount of melt from the storage container into the filling chamber and then into a mold hollow space (11) of a casting mold (8).
