Die Cast Parts Tooling for Making Die Cast Parts. The process of making of aluminum die cast parts entails value for product quality, above else. With this in mind, aluminum die casters tend to give premium on following specifications right to the tilt. The basic agenda on the list is die construction, which is primarily made of die casting tooling. Tooling for Die Casting aluminum is made of alloy tool steels in at least two sections, namely the fixed die half and the ejector die half. In modern times, dies may carry cores, movable slides, or other sections for the production of threads, holes, and other features for the attainment of the desired shapes.

The fixed die casting tooling mold half has a shot hole that makes it possible for the molten aluminum metal to enter the die and fill in the cavity. On the other hand, the ejector die half has runners and gates that lead the molten metal aluminum right into the cavity. Aside from these two sections involved in the aluminum die casting process, dies also consist of locking pins (for purposes of securing the fixed die half and the ejector die half), ejector pins (for purposes of making the removal of the aluminum cast part easier), and openings (for purposes of cooling and lubricating the molten aluminum metal or aluminum casting).

When the chamber closes, the fixed die half and the ejector die half become one and remain locked together, thanks to the chamber’s hydraulic pressure. After a certain amount of time elapses (depending on the total projected surface area and the pressure required for the injection of the metal into the cavity), the aluminum die casting process is completed and high quality die cast parts are produced.

Kinetic Die Casting owns several Die Casting Tooling Mold Bases that we use to produce aluminum die casting parts. These die cast mold bases are convenient for use for customers who own die casting tooling inserts but not a die cast mold base to use in a die casting machine. Some of the moldbases we own are as small as 12″ by 12″ and are as large as 36″ by 36″. Kinetic Die Casting also owns DME unit dies and MUD bases. DME unit dies are available in many sizes. Kinetic Die Casting primarily uses two DME Unit Die sizes:

Kinetic Die Casting will mount “customer owned” die cast tooling inserts into our mold bases so we can produce aluminum die casting parts. We can mount inserts ranging in sizes from 3″ to 20″ and all sizes in between. If a customer contacts us and they own die casting tooling inserts only, we can make parts for them. We have also made die cast tooling inserts for customers that will fit our mold bases. The tooling inserts are many types, like:

Die Casting Tooling is the greatest cost barrier to producing aluminum die cast Custom Metal Parts. The die cast die mold base is a very large percentage of the die cast tool cost. Kinetic Die Casting uses our die casting mold bases to save money for our customers, so they can get the die casting parts they need.
