Magnesium alloy semi-solid injection molding solution

Magnesium alloy semi-solid injection molding (also known as thixomolding) is a revolutionary manufacturing technology specifically developed for magnesium alloys. Unlike traditional liquid die casting, this process feeds magnesium alloy pellets or chips into a screw mechanism, where they are heated to a semi-solid state while the screw's shear action transforms the solid particles into uniform spherical granules. This semi-solid slurry exhibits thixotropic flow – it flows like a fluid under shear stress but maintains its structure at rest. The screw then acts as a plunger, injecting the semi-solid magnesium slurry into the mold cavity at high pressure and speed. Core operating principle: The process integrates slurry preparation and injection into a single unit – eliminating the need for separate melting furnaces. Material yield reaches approximately 90%, a dramatic improvement over traditional processes.
