(typically less than 1 bar above atmospheric pressure) is also referred to as “low pressure die casting”.

process in which molten metal is poured into a permanent metal mould and solidified under high
pressure (typically 7 MPa)
3.6
investment casting
precision casting formed by a three step process comprising:

5.4 Casting process designations
The following abbreviations shall be used as designations for the different casting processes:

heat treated and fully artificially aged.
6 Chemical composition
6.1 General
Chemical composition shall be expressed in accordance with the writing rules given in EN 1780-3. The
chemical composition of aluminium castings shall be in conformity with the limits specified in Table 1.
NOTE Table 1 also includes the chemical compositions of ingots used to produce castings. These are shown in
brackets where they differ from the casting limits and are taken from EN 1676.
The chemical analysis of elements for which specific limits are given in Table 1 shall be carried out. By
agreement between supplier and purchaser other elements may be determined. This particularly
applies to modifying or refining elements such as sodium, strontium, antimony and phosphorus.
Alloying elements and impurities shall be expressed in the following sequence: silicon, iron, copper,
manganese, magnesium, chromium, nickel, zinc, lead, tin, titanium, other elements each/total,
aluminium.
Additional specified elements with specific limits shall be inserted, in alphabetical order with respect to
their chemical symbols after titanium, or be specified in footnotes.
6.2 Samples for chemical analysis
When a chemical analysis is carried out by spark emission spectrometry, samples shall be taken from
the melt at the time the castings are made and shall be cast into a metallic die.
If chemical analysis by emission spectrometry is carried out on a casting, it is recommended that a part
of the casting is remelted and cast into a metallic die to minimize the unavoidable segregation effect.
The content of certain elements such as sodium, strontium and magnesium, is normally reduced by the
remelting, and chemical analysis of such elements should be made directly on the casting.
For sampling the use of EN 14361 is recommended. For chemical analysis the use of EN 14242 and
EN 14726 is recommended.

NOTE 1 Figures in brackets are ingot compositions (prefix EN AB instead of EN AC) where they differ from the casting. See EN 1676 for information.
NOTE 2 Limits are expressed as a maximum unless shown as a range.
a
“Others” does not include modifying or refining elements such as Na, Sr, Sb and P.
b
For alloys with Mg ≥ 3 %, the alloy may contain a maximum Be content of 0,005 % which is not considered as an impurity.
c
Sr addition is recommended.
d
These grades of unalloyed aluminium are specified in EN 576, and included in this document due to its importance for electrotechnical applications.
e
B max. 0,04 %; Mn + Ti + Cr + V max. 0,030 %.
f
B max. 0,04 %; Mn + Ti + Cr + V max. 0,020 %.
g
“Others” includes all the elements which are not listed in this table or without specific values.
h
Refining agents such as Ti, B or master alloys containing nucleating particles such as TiB shall not be considered as impurities. Nev
