In this study, 18-inch wheels, magnesium alloy AZ91D was developed and we compared overseas go on sale magnesium wheels and same specifications of the aluminum wheels mechanical properties. Prototype 18-inch magnesium wheels by a low-pressure casting method to achieve the same specifications of aluminum wheels and reduced 26% of the weight, the new edition of magnesium wheels compared to the same level of elongation, tensile strength, hardness. Casting and heat treatment process to improve future need to improve the yield strength is expected.

자동차용 Al Wheel의 반복 금형 주조 공정에 있어서의 적정 냉각조건 확립 및 수축공 등의 주조결함을 제어하기 위하여 3차원 응고, 유동, 응력 해석 프로그램 연동 기술과 자동 금형온도 조절장치를 실제 현장에 적용하여 생산되는 Al Wheel 제품의 최적 주조조건 및 냉각조건을 확립하였다. 주조과정 중의 금형의 온도 변화 및 주물의 응고, 유동 거동은 수치해석 결과와 잘 일치하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 금형온도 자동 조절 장치를 사용함으로서 금형 작업온도의 가열 및 유지가 정량적으로 제어 가능하며, 제품 품질의 유지 및 Cycle Time 최적화를 이룰 수 있으며 궁극적으로는 금형 수명 연장 및 생산성 향상 등을 이룰 수 있었다.

A multi-purpose code MAGMA was employed for mold design and process control in producing Al wheel by lowpressure die casting. Three-dimensional solid modeling was followed by mesh generation of casting and molds(top, bottom and side). The simulation of stability of casting cycle time, mold filling simulation with pressure variation from P1 to P2, solidification simulation by solidification time and feeding criteria, and temperature distribution of molds during processes were studied in this research. The thermal stability of molds was attained after 5 cycles when molds were preheated at $400^{\circ}C$. The pressure increase from P1 to P2 for mold filling was evaluated as slightly higher, and 6 seconds were taken for the mold filling. The cycle time was believed to be designed properly judged from the solidification time of casting and open/close time of molds.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of the low pressure die-cast Al wheels were investigated by microscope, image analyzer, NDT (non-destructive test), and tensile test. The variation of SDAS (secondary dendrite arm spacing), porosity per unit area, quality grade, and tensile properties with the mold temperatures were examined. SDAS was gradually decreased with a decrease in temperature. However, the lowest value of porosity per unit area was observed at the mold temperature of $405^{\circ}C$ and the optimum mold temperature was found to be $405^{\circ}C$. Besides, from the observation of pore morphology, it was also found that the pore formation was mainly caused by shrinkage during solidification. The tensile strength, elongation, and impact toughness were markedly decreased, however the yield strength was nearly constant. The decrease of mechanical properties is attributed to the increase of porosity.
