What is meant by pressure die casting?
Pressure die casting is the term used when metal is forced under high pressure into a die casting mold or die. The die casting process in USA is "pressure die casting" but referred to simply as "die casting" refer to http://www.kineticdiecasting.com/what-is-die-casting.html
Material used for making dies for pressure die casting of aluminium alloys?
what is material used for making dies in pressure die casting of alumionium alloys
What is the difference between gravity die casting and die casting?
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.
What is used for purification of metal for casting?
The use of a flux to purify metals is a simple, brute force chemical separation hence it helps in the casting process.
Describe the corrosion casting process used to prepare these specific specimens?
The corrosion casting process used to prepare specific specimens is a tissue preparation technique that involves the injection of plastic into blood vessels.
What is the purpose of the flex-plate on 350s with automatic trannys and can new crate motors use the old one even if they give a recommended part number?
The flex plate connects to the crankshaft and bolts to the torque converter. The flex plate also has a ring gear that meshes with the starter. If the flex plate is in good condition it can be re-used. Check the gear to make sure that none of the teeth are worn. If all teeth are still in good shape and there are no cracks in the flex plate it can be reused. very commonly found in older ford f250
Are turbo 350 and 700r4 flex plates different?
I have installed a 700r4 in place of a 350 in my 1959 chev and used the same flex plate with no problem.
Bad knock on engine people say flex plate on 1979 gmc 350 engine?
If it really IS the flex plate, that's a lot cheaper than other problems that could cause a bad knock. The flex plate is a steel plate that bolts to the rear of the engine and has gear teeth around it. The starter engages with the teeth to start the engine. The torque converter also bolts to the flex plate. All power produced by the engine that is used to move the vehicle goes through the flex plate. Flex plates get old and sometimes crack. When that happens you want to get the old flex plate out of there as soon as you can before it breaks completely and destroys the torque converter. A flex plate is relatively cheap, compared to a complete engine rebuild or replacing the torque converter. To replace the flex plate, simply pull the engine (or transmission, whichever is easiest), unbolt the flex plate from the crankshaft, bolt up a replacement and put the transmission (or engine) back. Of course, there is more involved than that, but it's not as bad as some repairs.
How do you tell if a metal casting is magnesium?
Magnesium is only used on very high end cars. It is unlikely it would be on any car cheaper that $90,000 new. A magnesium alloy should have a very deep silver almost tan shine to it (generaly mate or flat). It will have a similar weight to aluminum but should not flex as much. Unless you are dealing with a high quality hardened aluminum casting. Then I cant help you unless I see it.
Where do you find the flywheel on an 86 Chevy Cavalier?
The flywheel- or in your case- it is really called a "flex plate" is bolted to the crankshaft, and it is what is used to bolt the torque converter to the engine. The starter's ring gear is also welded to the flex plate. If in the rare instance you do have a manual transmission, then the flywheel is used to transmit power from the engine through the clutch/input shaft of the transmission. In either case, it is located between the engine and the transmission.
Does a Mercury Villager have a flywheel?
Yes and no. It has a fly wheel if it is equipped with a manual transmission. It has a flex plate for an automatic transmission. But, that's like the term "motor" being used to describe an internal combustion "engine". In my world, a "motor" is connected to an electrical power source. Anyhow, the flex plate (flywheel) is a connection between the engine and the transmission. Every vehicle has one.
What is the difference between a flywheel and a flex-plate?
The flywheel has a machined surface for the clutch to mate to. A flexplate is used for automatics and only needs to provide a connection between the engine and transmission.

What is the process sand casting used for?
Sand casting is used for molding metal shapes and objects. The reason this is called sand casting is because sand is used as a mold. Sand casting is favored by most metal manufacturers because the process of sand casting is very cheap.
In what industries is aluminum casting generally used?
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.
