Notes:
The preliminary experimental results on microstructure evolution and simulation of analternative semisolid route to manufacture near-net shape components are reported. The rheocastingfor semi-solid alloys was first performed by conventional mechanical stircasting (MSC), followedby direct shaping of the SSM slurry into a high-pressure die-casting machine (HPDC), thusavoiding the storage and reheated to the semisolid state of the ingots prior the shaping process.To assure high quality for the semisolid slurry, the microstructural evolution was characterized bydigital image analyses. The HPDC process of a simple part, simulated using CFD tools (Flow-3D®-Flow Science Inc.) is also reported. By means of such simulation the integrity of shapingcomponents was studied
