Abstract The relationship between structure morphology of semi-solid aluminum alloy die-casting sample and filling condition was studied. By systematical structure analysis and computer simulation of the filling process, the quantitative relationship between microscopic morphology (such as solid fraction, grain size and shape) and formation state was studied. The results showed that the billet microstructure must have fine and round grains for the die-casting of complex shapes. It is necessary to optimize injection speeds to escape the non-uniform distribution of the solid fraction in complex and changeable mold cavity.
