Magnesium train component die casting mold
Moldie designs and builds high pressure die casting (HPDC) molds for rail / train component programs. We deliver production-ready mold tooling matched to your drawings and casting process.
What this mold is for
This page covers mold tooling for magnesium rail / train components used in CNC-machined assemblies. Casting alloy choice (e.g. AZ91-class magnesium) is specified for the part; mold steels, bolsters, and heat treatment are specified separately for the die.
Tooling scope
- DFM review for magnesium HPDC flow, filling, and CNC stock allowances
- Mold design: parting, gating, runners, overflow, venting, and ejection
- CNC machining of cavities/cores, fitting, and assembly
- Tryout support and dimensional feedback for first samples
Materials note
Part alloy (magnesium) and mold steel (tool steel with appropriate hardness for die casting dies) are listed as separate items. Do not treat part-alloy hardness requirements as mold-steel heat treatment.
