Innovative solutions for reliable and efficient die casting
The purpose of vacuum in a die casting system is to evacuate a given volume of air from the mold cavity and the shot sleeve within the shortest possible period of time. This avoids air inclusions in the castings.
The Pfeiffer Vacuum multi-stage vacuum process is available in Vacu2 and Vacu2 eco versions.
