Sand Casting-is a cast part produced by forming a mold with the help of a model or pattern pressed into a sand mixture and then removed.
Die Casting- is the process of forcing molten metal under high pressure into mold cavities (which are machined into dies).
In sand mold casting the molten metal is poured in to the mold cavity , while in pressure die casting the molten metal is forced under high pressure in to the cavity. The sand casting process is used for small batch production where pressure die casting is used for mass production.

The tooling for gravity casting costs less than pressure die casting but the part cost in pressure die casting is much less. see Sand Casting. Die Casting: In the high pressure, requires a die casting machine to inject molten liquid or semi-liquid metal to a higher rate of die-casting mold cavity filling and solidification under pressure, forming and casting methods obtained. Gravity Casting: Uses the gravity or weight of the metal to fill the cavity producing a metal part. It does not require the use of an expensive die casting machine. The tooling cost is lesser for gravity casting because of the lower pressures needed to produce parts.
Pressure Die Casting
To remove any left behind pieces and to slightly cool the die for the next part to be made. With the air is a liquid releasing agent to prevent the die casting alloy from sticking to the molds.

Metal casting can be done thro sand casting ,investment casting , pressure die casting methods
Casting aluminum is when the metal is poured into a mold. Die casting is when you inject the molten metal into a mold to make more detailed parts. Die casting is more commonly done with zinc.
Die casting is done by forcing molten metal under high pressure into a mold. Gravity die casting is a simpler method in which molten metal is poured into the mold rather than using force and high pressure. Gravity die casting is mostly used for only simple shapes, while die casting can be used for much more complex ones.
Casting is the process of pouring liquid metal into a mold. The metal cools and takes the shape of the mold.
The high-pressure die casting is finish injection molding under mechanical high-pressure . Suitable for thin wall casting. The low pressure die casting is that the liquid pressure within the pressure vessel so that the liquid level rise and get the castings. suitable for thick wall castings. Gravity casting is casting with the gravity of the liquid itself. Suitable for general castings.
Castings are generally sound, provided that the alloys used exhibit good fluidity. Aluminum is one of the few metals that can be cast by all of the processes used in casting metals. These processes, in decreasing order of amount of aluminum casting, are: die casting, permanent mold casting, sand casting (green sand and dry sand), plaster casting, investment casting, and continuous casting. Other processes such as lost foam, squeeze casting, and hot isostatic pressing are also mentioned.

Hot chamber die casting In this melting pot is in the machine itself and a goose neck is used to inject the material from melting pot through nozzle into the die.Cold chamberIn this melting pot is outside the machine and a spool is used to put the molten material into the cylinder
