About this document
Gravity Die Casting Design Guidelines by M Praveen is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides guidelines for designing rigging systems, which include gates, runners, risers, and sprues, for light alloy castings. It discusses rules for orienting the part in the mold, placing the parting plane, and designing the sprue. The sprue should be sized to limit metal flow rate and located far from gates. It is tapered to reduce turbulence and avoid air aspiration. Rectangular sprues are generally better than circular ones for limiting turbulence. Standard-sized sprue wells and filters a
