Maximum Protection
Maximum Protection. Steel is the preferred material to be used as protection for any item. It is relatively cheap but is very sturdy compared to other materials. The only problem encountered with using steel is the weight of the material. Steel, especially compounded ones, is very heavy compared to other materials. This makes it difficult to carry around even if the item contained inside is small. For this reason, it is best to use an aluminum box instead of a steel box with a die cast tool.
Aluminum boxes are containers that are as durable as steel boxes but possess only half their weight. These boxes are used to store items of any kind and value although they are more commonly used to store electronic items. The reason for this is that aluminum boxes prevent the electronic items from malfunctioning due to external magnetic energy. They come in different sizes to cater to the different types of electronic devices. They also come in different colors to give way to the preference of individuals. They can be purchased in DIY stores, hardware stores, and online stores.
Aluminum boxes usually come as DIY kits so that owners are able to customize the enclosure to fit their devices. This is not often the case however since device manufacturers make their own enclosures to fit their devices. In cases where an aluminium box does not fit a device perfectly, contacting manufacturing plants is the most advisable option. Manufacturing plants tend to have schematics of popular devices which means that they can create an aluminium box that will fit the device perfectly.

Tooling Used For Aluminum Die Casting
Tooling Used For Aluminum Die Casting. Tooling is a major requirement in aluminum die casting. During the process of casting, the softened molten metal is injected through custom tooling. The die is then cut into two halves. There is the cover metal die which is mounted on the stationary based platen and the ejector type die, which is actually mounted to a movable platen. Such a design provides the die with the ability to close or open along parting lines. Once the hole is closed, the two die halves will form a type of internal cavity which is filled with hot molten metal in order to form its final casting.
The cavity is formed through 2 inserts. The two inserts are the core and cavity inserts. They are inserted into the cover or ejector die. The cover die provides movement or flow of the molten metal through the injection area. Through a small opening and the cavity, the molten metal will be able to move easily. The ejector die also includes a support plate and a small enclosure called the ejector box, which is well mounted onto the area of the platen. When the clamping separates the 2 halves of the die, the clamping bar will be pushing the ejector plate into the ejector box. The clamps will then push the pins of the ejector to the molded part. The added pressure will eject the clamp from its core insert. In order to perfect the process, multiple cavity die is often utilized and in this type of process the two halves of the die will form several types of identical cavities.

Empire Die Casting Co Files Chapter 11
The leadership at Empire Die Casting Co. of Macedonia has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and hopes to sell the company soon. New Growth Capital Group LLC of Hudson has submitted a letter of intent to acquire the assets of Empire Die Casting for $11.7 million in cash. New Growth Capital Group would be designated as a stalking horse bidder for the auction, and Empire Die Casting would pay a break-up fee of $180,000 if New Growth Capital Group is out-bid.
Carl Harbert, managing partner of New Growth Capital, said the small group of operators is looking to buy companies in which they can remain invested for 30-plus years. Empire Die Casting would be New Growth Capital’s first acquisition.
Robert Hopkins, president of Empire Die Casting, declined to disclose potential buyers of the business, but did say the interested parties plan to keep the aluminum and zinc casting company in Macedonia and to grow it.
Mr. Hopkins said the desire to sell the company has come up in the last two months. He said the company’s owner is looking to retire and get out of the business.
The bankruptcy was filed Oct. 16 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Akron. The company listed assets of between $10,000,001 and $50 million, and liabilities of between $1,000,001 and $10 million. There are about 200 employees at the company’s plant at 635 E. Highland Road.
The bid deadline listed in the bid procedures order is 5 p.m. Dec. 16. Marc Merklin, a managing partner in the Akron office of law firm Brouse McDowell LPA, said the court will hear the request for the bid procedures on Nov. 5. Until then, the terms in the referenced documents are not final.
The main hurdle Empire Die Casting faces is a potential liability in its multiemployer pension plan, which it’s addressing through the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. New Growth Capital’s letter of intent specifies that its proposed purchase would exclude rights, interests and liabilities regarding employee collective bargaining agreements and employee retirement/pension/benefit plans, among other corporate governance materials.
Mr. Merklin said the pension plan has a multimillion-dollar liability and is “unworkable” as is. He said with a multiemployer plan, when one employer withdraws from the plan, it puts pressure on the others. That means penalties for such plans are high.
According to a document included in the Chapter 11 filing, Empire Die Casting had $34 million in sales last fiscal year. The document notes that profitability and cash flow for the company have decreased in recent years due to “production inefficiencies.” The company also saw an increase in indirect costs and “ineffective implementation of a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system,” which made it difficult for Empire Die Casting to manage its costs and pricing.
