Method of controlling pressurizing pin and casting apparatus with pressurizing pin controller

摘要

The disclosed method of controlling a pressurizing pin, which serves to replenish for the necessary locality with molten metal during solidification of molten metal charged in the cavity, features that the operation of the molten metal replenishment by the pressurizing pin is caused when it is detected that the volume of non-solidified metal has become less than the volume effective for obtaining a molten metal replenishment effect. It is thus possible to obtain efficient replenishment for the necessary locality with molten metal by using a pressurizing pin which is limited in size and stroke.
