文摘The microstructure and mechanical properties of nodular cast iron produced by the melted metal die forging process （MMDF for short） were experimentally researched.The main obtained results are ： the nodular cast iron produced by this process can be machined as easy as traditional one only if holding at the remained temperature for 4 h ; its strength and plasticity are obviously higher than those of traditional ones ; the graphite size arrived at grade 8 , and the graphite spheroidizing arrived at grade 1 or 2 , but a streamline molded distribution of the graphite slightly appeared.Both of the strength and plasticity increased with the pressure when the pressure holding time was larger than its critical value.A new way to produce high properties nodular cast iron was provided.
