Abstract : The work in this paper describes the design and simulation of high-pressure die casting die (HPDC) for pinion housing for the automotive part. The material used for pinion housing is Aluminum alloy 6061. The casting simulations are based on ADSTFEAN casting simulation software. The work includes mathematical calculations for die performance parameters such as fill time, fill rate and design of the gating system, plunger velocity, and machine’s capacity. The study of fill time, product quality prediction, and optimum runner size is based on ADSTFEAN casting simulation system. Furthermore, simulations are carried out to decide the number of gate locations for better filling of the die.
