Abstract

Al used in automobiles is mostly material, and according to the innovation of technique is in rapid development. Al die casting is an important field as today's trend of lightweight on automobiles. Valve housing in steering system improves driver's controling. The valve housing which is widely reliable to the most automobiles are developed this moment in our automobile industry. Therefore, they are produced by casting method which cost three times or even more expensive in production. If valve housing which is a part of steering system is produced by gravity casting, the space for manufacturing equipment will be increased, and more time and workers would be brought into service. For such reason, die casting would replace gravity casting in order to minimize cost of time, manpower, and working space. This study is the forming analysis of the 2 cavity die casting for automobile valve housing.
