KDC Closed Labor Day 2015
Kinetic Die Casting Company will be closed on Monday September 7, 2015 in observance of Labor Day.
Some fun facts from the US Department of Labor about Labor Day History:
The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later, on September 5, 1883.
In 1884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday, as originally proposed, and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a “workingmen’s holiday” on that date. The idea spread with the growth of labor organizations, and in 1885 Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country.

Kinetic Die Casting Company and Continental Eagle Corporation
Kinetic Die Casting Company was contacted by C&D Die Casting Company that was in Chatsworth California in November 2004 (History of Kineticdc). C&D was letting us know that many of their customers were needing aluminum die casting parts.
One of those customers was:
Continental Eagle Corporation (coneagle.com).
Postal Address: Post Office Box 1000 Prattville, Alabama 36067-1000 USA
Location Address: 201 Gin Shop Hill Road Prattville , Alabama 36067-1000 USA
Telephone: (334) 365-8811 Facsimile: (334) 361-7627
We produced many aluminum ring spacer parts made from aluminum die casting parts for Continental Eagle over the years since 2004.
Here is an excerpt from their website (coneagle.com): Continental Eagle Corporation, located in Prattville, Alabama U.S.A., manufactures and markets worldwide a premier line of cotton ginning, cotton processing and handling equipment. Continental Eagle has a complete network of sales and service facilities located throughout the United States cotton belt and in the cotton producing areas of the world.

Continental Eagle is certified in accordance with the International Standards Organization 9001 Quality Management System. Continental Eagle’s IMPCO division, based in Prattville, Alabama manufactures machinery for the oilseeds processing industry.
Sadly, it seems that Continental Eagle is no longer in business. We still have the die casting tooling that makes the aluminum die casting spacer rings if anyone picks up the business and needs parts. We are saddened at the loss of another American business. Please contact us if you have any details for Continental Eagle Company.

Aluminum Die Casting–What You Need to Know!
Aluminum Die Casting–What You Need to Know. The manufacturing process involved in aluminum die casting is roughly the same as that used in the production of pre-fabricated concrete building materials such as the hollow blocks that commonly go into the construction of houses. The big difference of course is in the material used. Water, cement and aggregates such as gravel and sand are used In pre-fabricated concrete, while in aluminum die casting, molten aluminum is the base material.
Also, High pressure is used to inject the molten aluminum into a steel die cast mold or die cast. This high-pressure injection system is necessary to immediately fill the entire cavity of the die before any part of aluminum casting hardens or solidifies. Immediate filling of the die cavity help prevent discontinuities in the aluminum die casting. To further help ensure that the aluminum casting is injected even into difficult-to-fill sections of dies with thin parts, the molds are designed with vents to allow air to escape during the injection process.
Furthermore, most of the molds used in the aluminum die casting are water-cooled to help hasten the production process. Once the injection is complete, the molds are opened and the die castings are ejected. The finished aluminum castings may amount to thousands or hundreds depending on the design of the die cast.
Kinetic Die Casting Company makes Aluminum Casting Parts. As a die casting company, we make these parts every day and ship thousands of these aluminum die castings every week.

Blue Light Special on Airport Lights
How Kinetic Die Casting Company helped a Airport Lighting Parts Manufacturer. To get help for your company, use this webpage: Prices for Die Casting Parts. George had an idea on how he could develop a better airport runway lighting product. In the 1990s, Kinetic Die Casting Company received a fax from a company called Airport Lighting Company. At Airport Lighting Company, George, makes the lighting products of many of the airports in America. One of his biggest product lines is the blue light on the side of runways. The product in use is a round steel plate that is machined with mounting holes that are drilled and counter bored. The center was a larger hole that is then drilled and threaded for an arm that stands about a foot tall holding a lamp light fixture with a blue light bulb. These steel round plates line the side of runways for airplanes.
George at Airport Lighting Company has a problem regarding his blue lamp runway light fixtures. Steel rusts. The steel plates he uses for the runway lights rust in bad weather, which causes the plate to collapse if a plane runs over the plate by accident. Aluminum die casting does not rust. Will an aluminum die casting plate be strong enough to hold the weight of an airplane?
George contacted Kinetic Die Casting Company with the question, how strong is aluminum die casting? Our engineer, Dante, created a solidworks model of an aluminum plate with strengthening ribs and gussets. We tested the model using software to test the strength. We sent George the test results and he was ecstatic. He commissioned us to build his tool and has purchased thousands of the aluminum plates. George created his own Blue Light Special on Airport Runway Lights.
Look out of the airplane window the next time you fly, those blue lights may be sitting on an aluminum plate that just may have been made by Kinetic Die Casting Company.

The Uses and Needs of Aluminum Boxes
Aluminum Boxes Uses and Needs. When it comes to storage options, most people prefer to go the plastic or wooden way since of the ease and convenience. But rising trends indicate that more people, especially the men are longing for metallic boxes more because of several factors that include strength and durability. An Aluminum box is the best when you are looking for durable storage. Aluminum has two qualities that make it the metal of choice. It is light and easy to work with, but it is also strong and very durable. In the world of storage and body building, that is a magic combination.
There are different uses that you can put aluminum boxes into and it all depends on your intentions. Most of these are used in storing equipment when taking a road trips since they are strong enough to hold when things get a little bumpy. Some have taken to making these boxes large enough to make a little enclosure at the back of pick up trucks. Their workability is what makes aluminum the metal of choice. In the making of large transportation enclosures especially of animals, it is aluminum that is preferred. It does not add too much weight and that is the main reason whey it is chosen.
But when it comes to household settings, these boxes receive a fair share of attention too. Some are made small for storage of collections such as magazines and comic books. The aluminum boxes make for excellent storage since they protect the enclosed material from the elements for a couple of years. Besides, they are made rust proof which makes them more durable. For mailboxes, heavy duty or not, the aluminum boxes are excellent at carrying out the function with little flaw. One big advantage of using aluminum boxes is that they are good at taking sudden impact. Keeping away water, dust and moisture are other key advantages. If you want to store electronic components, you should use aluminum boxes since they keep away radio frequencies and Electromagnetic inductance. However to make sure that this is achieved there need be aluminum die casting so that the conductivity can work to your advantage.
Findings indicate that aluminum is about a third the weight of steel which means some boxes will be easy for you to carry. Aluminum boxes can be found with ease since there is availability of the metal in most places. They are not too expensive given their qualities. Besides, they are not easy to break into and that means that they are good at keeping thieves away. If an aluminum box was to be placed on the outside, away from shelter, it is able to withstand every kind of force that nature throws at it. In light with that, it is easy to understand why one would feel the obligation to get an aluminum box.
Next time you are out searching for a storage container or box, think aluminum and you can rest assured that you will not be disappointed.
