Casting of aluminum alloy casting has many advantages, making it a developmentof foundry industry and purchasing customers one of the most popular cast products, with advances in casting technology for aluminum alloy in the future, it will beon a bigger stage to show their presence.

Reducing energy consumption, reducing pollution and saving limited resources is today one of the most important and urgent task facing all countries. Facilitated bythe general trend of automotive products such as lightweight, it can be expected over the next 10 years, light metal casting market in China will be a significant development. Casting producer of aluminium and magnesium alloy castings the proportion between 13%~19%, some countries (such as Italy) is as high as 30%~40%, while China''s aluminum and magnesium alloy castings which not to 10%. Developed more than 90% of aluminum castings for the automotive parts manufacturing sector, in our country, the aluminum alloy castings to form large-scale production andmeet the weight requirements there are many problems to be solved: first, the requirements of the automotive aluminum castings to thin-walled, complex shapes, high strength, high quality development. In order to meet this requirement, should further optimize the casting process and the development of new alloys. Second, from the perspective of design and technology to reduce production costs, such asusing the model for technology and automation technology to increase productivity and extend die life, and the use of integrated design and reduce the number ofparts. Third, using computer simulation technology, reduce the technology development cycle. Finally, efforts to increase aluminum recycling. Secondary aluminum isthe main raw material of aluminum casting, development of foundry industry in China and the importance of using recycled aluminum resources, developed from composite materials and effective separation of dissimilar material combinations ofwaste aluminum technology, and the establishment of a wide range of waste recycling system.
