Black technology's strong empowerment

Excellent technology creates a new era of integrated die-casting

At present, in the field of automotive die casting, the quality of structural parts accounts for 20-30% of the quality of automotive maintenance, which is the key area of integrated die casting lightweight. Due to the large size of the product, the long filling stroke, the large difference in thickness, and the relatively dispersed important position, the structural parts have become one of the more difficult categories in the field of auto parts die casting production, but for the processing equipment for the production of structural parts, the imported die casting machine equipment has occupied the majority of the market.


Zhang Hongpeng, general manager of the Tederic Die Casting Machine Division, said: "As a latecomer in the die casting machine industry, we want to challenge high-difficulty molding products. Based on Tederic's native international technical advantages, the IKON450 will focus on the production of automotive structural parts. Equipped with an SNP real-time control injection system and a three-plate direct pressing die closing system, with excellent performance, extreme stability, and reliability, it will redefine the large cold chamber die casting machine, realize domestic replacement of imports, and deduce the classic integrated high-end metal forming equipment.

There is something inside, and the appearance is the highlight.

At the press conference, Zhang Hongpeng announced the core highlight of the IKON - SNP real-time control injection system.

The system is equipped with a custom-developed 10,000Hz scan frequency controller, SmartCast casting process system, fifth-order PID algorithm, MCK large model self-learning algorithm, BLC oil circuit system, custom-developed high-response servo valve, and high-performance check valve. SNP real-time control injection system, with more than 40% of the conventional dynamic injection force, more than 70G ultra-high acceleration, speed, pressure, and position repetition accuracy than the traditional die casting machine has been greatly improved. At present, the IKON three-plate direct pressure clamping system has obtained a Chinese invention patent.


In addition, the clamping force of the IKON clamping system is evenly distributed, and the deviation of the clamping force of the Corinth column is less than 3%. Inorganic hinge structure, close to lifelong maintenance free, with automatic clamping force compensation function, combined with special formula template material, the service life of the clamping mechanism is longer.

Overall, the IKON series of large die-casting machines, with no porosity injection, no flash molding, and stable, durable advantages, is an excellent structural part-forming solution. In the field of ultra-large structural parts, Tederic has the overall turnkey solution capability to meet the design and manufacturing of ultra-large integrated structural parts for new energy vehicles.
