In order for the working status of the aluminum alloyed hydraulic valve body to be controlled in actual conditions, a new friction and wear

design device was designed for the cast iron and aluminum alloyed valve bodies comparison under the same conditions. The results

displayed that: (1) The oil leakage of the aluminum alloyed hydraulic valve body was higher than the corresponding oil leakage of the iron

body during the initial running stage. Besides during a later running stage, the oil leakage of the aluminum alloyed body was lower than

corresponding oil leakage of the iron body; (2) The actual oil leakage of different materials consisted of two parts: the foundation leakage

that was the leakage of the valve without wear and wear leakage that was caused by the worn valve body; (3) The aluminum alloyed valve

could rely on the dust filling furrow and melting mechanism that led the body surface to retain dynamic balance, resulting in the valve

leakage preservation at a low level. The aluminum alloy modified valve body can meet the requirements of hydraulic leakage under

pressure, possibly constituting this alloy suitable for hydraulic valve body manufacturing.

In order to study the effects of various gating systems on the casting of a complex aluminum alloyed multi-way valve body, both software simulation analysis and optimization were carried out. Following, the aluminum alloyed multi-way valve body was cast to check the pouring of the aluminum alloy valve body. The computer simulation results demonstrated that compared to the single side casting mode, the casting method of both sides of the gating system would reduce the filling of the external gas, while the air contact time would be lower. Adversely, due to the pouring on both sides, the melt cannot reach at the same time, leading to the liquid metal speed into the cavity to differ, which affected the liquid metal filling stability. The riser unreasonable setting led to the solidification time extension, resulting in a high amount of casting defects during solidification. Also, both gating systems led the entire casting inconsequential solidification. To overcome the latter problems, a straight gate was set at the middle pouring and the horizontal gate diversion occurred on both sides of pouring, which could provide better casting results for the aluminum alloyed multi-valve body.
