Aluminum Die Casting–A Brief Description
Die Casting, A Brief Description:
Diecasting is a manufacturing procedure in which molten metal is injected, under pressure, into a hardened steel die or also called mold. Dies are often water-cooled. Dies are then opened, and the die castings are ejected (many times thousands of parts each day, sometimes only a few hundred). Once the tooling is paid for, die casting is a very inexpensive aluminum part manufacturing process.

Kinetic Die Casting Company makes Superior Quality Aerospace Die Castings.
Our customer recently sent us a die casting tool to produce die casting parts. He recently experienced a reject from his customer and he needed our help.
Honeywell Aerospace (aerospace company) uses a quality inspection document, EMS 230, to accept or reject high pressure die casting parts. Our customer supplied die casting parts to Honeywell and these castings were rejected for “Cold Shots”.
Cold Shots are imperfections in the metal flow into die casting parts due to the metal freezing or solidifying prior to the metal filling the die casting cavity. It usually happens when the metal flow is limited or the metal is not the proper temperature or the die casting mold is not the proper temperature. As a great quality die casting company, we solve these issues every week. We control the metal temperature with thermocouples and we control the die temperature in our die casting process.
It can also happen if the die casting tooling or the die casting part is poorly designed. The die casting process needs metal to flow rapidly into the die casting tool to make solid die casting parts. Design of the tool or part can limit that fluid process.
This is what happened in this case:
* The die casting tooling gates into a section of the die casting part of about 0.030″ thick wall thickness. This is thinner than recommended for the metal to flow into the die casting. This restricts the metal flow.
* There are sections of the die casting that are over .200″ thick. Consistent wall thicknesses are critical for sound die castings.
* The prior die casting company added overflows and vents that worked against each other by filling the tool from two or three directions. These gates, vents and overflows created turbulence in the shot process which cause the metal to cool prematurely.
What did Kinetic Die Casting Company do for our new customer?
* We made some fast tooling changes to improve the metal flow in the die casting tool.
* We made great quality die casting parts for our new customer.
* We did this in less than three weeks for our happy customer.

Examples of Die Casting Handle Parts
Examples of Die Casting Handle Parts. Die casting is a process wherein molten metal or metal compound is pressure-cast into a cavity to form various metal parts. Materials used in die casting are mainly alloys of the following metals: zinc, tin, copper, pewter, aluminum, lead, and magnesium. Die casting is very popular in the production of small metal parts or small machines. Plastic parts are also making their way into the parts market but many still prefer metal parts as it is more durable and produces less carbon footprint. The following are some of the examples of die casting handle parts and their applications.

Die cast metal parts have a certain charm that you just can’t find in plastic molded parts. The above mentioned examples of die casting handle parts prove that metals are still the number one choice if you want a more modern and elegant look in any architecture.
