The Impact of Squeeze Casting in AMMC—Review

This current review deals with the influence of squeeze casting on the mechanical property and microstructure of aluminium metals matrix composites. The squeeze casting is also known as the liquid forging technique in which the liquid aluminium matrix is forged by applying squeeze pressure during solidification. Squeeze casting has an ability to offer excellent cast microstructure, which in turn enhances the mechanical property and also avoids conventional process-oriented defects. Squeeze casting improves the heat transfer rate during solidification due to its process capability. The solid solubility of AMMC is excellent than to other casting processes. The optimum governance of the process parameter of squeeze casting influences the performance of AMMC under tribological environment. The several benefits and applications offered by squeeze casting lead to exploring the process. A certain area in the casting process needs to be cautious and reviewed before commercial use of the squeeze casting process.
