Abstract (en)

After a cavity 2 of a die-casting mold 1 is evacuated to exclude gas, oxygen gas is blown into the cavity 2, and then an molten metal 5 is forcibly injected into the cavity 2. The cavity 2 is decompressed to a degree of vacuum not more than 100 millibar by evacuation through a suction nozzle 11. The oxygen gas is blown through a nozzle 14 into the cavity 2 so as to increase a pressure of the cavity 2 higher than the atmospheric pressure. When the molten metal 5 is injected into the cavity 2 clarified in this way, inclusion of gas is perfectly prohibited. As a result, an obtained die-cast products is free from defects such as blowholes or porosity caused by inclusion of gas and so useful as a functional member as well as a structural member. <IMAGE>
