Finding the right die casting company

Airport Die Casting Part

Finding the right die casting company. If you need to have a series of die cast parts, and you need them fast but you still want to have them in a high quality state, then what you need is the right die casting company. But how will you know if the company you chose can give you the best services? Just take note of the following guidelines:

Customers are always into good die casting companies, and usually the very good ones are those that have very fast die casting parts production and delivery. The standard is that it usually should take about less than 4 weeks for a company to produce and deliver good quality casting parts. Also a good die casting company is one that is able to produce a smaller die casting part production cycle that may typically span from 150 parts to about 5,000 parts or more. To top it all off, the company should produce fewer parts each year, with the range being not less than 100 parts, but must be more than 200,000 parts.

And most of all, the company must be able to add value to the casting parts they produce and ship. The added value can take the form of powder coating, machining, plating, painting, assembly, and packaging which the customers can avail at an affordable cost.

Die casting parts: Using Hot-chamber machines in die casting

Die casting parts: Using Hot-chamber machines in die casting. In order to successfully produce great quality die casting parts, two-types of die casting machines are used, the hot chamber machines, also known as gooseneck machines, and the cold chamber machines. The efficiency of each machine is measured by their ability to apply the needed clamping force for casting. Standard ratings may range from 400 to 4,000 short tons. This article is going to outline the process involved in using a hot-chamber machine for die casting.

Hot-chamber machines works to feed the die by relying on a pool of molten metal. With the start of each cycle, the machine piston is withdrawn and allows the molten metal to rapidly fill the gooseneck. This is also the reason why this is also called a gooseneck machine. The piston, either powered by oil or gas, then pushes the molten metal out of the gooseneck and directly into the die. This system is preferred because of the relatively fast and rapid cycle times it is able to accomplish and the ease by which the metal is conveniently melted within the casting machine. Because the system cannot employ metals with high melting points, and since it cannot also employ aluminum because of its ability to absorb some of the iron in the cast, the hot-chamber machines usually uses tin, zinc and lead based alloys.

Die casting parts: The steps involved in the process of die casting

Die casting parts: The steps involved in the process of die casting. During the die casting process, these are the basic steps that are being followed.

The first part involves spraying the mold with lubricant. This enhances the removal of the casting later on, and at the same time helps control the temperature of the die. The mold is then closed and then molten metal is introduced into the die under high pressures ranging from 1,500 to 25,000 psi. The die is then filled completely, and the pressure is constantly checked and maintained until the casting has securely solidified. The die is then opened, and the shot are then ejected by the use of ejector pins. Shots differ from castings since there are a number of multiple cavities within a die, producing multiple castings in one shot. Ultimately, the scraps are separated from the casting. Scraps include the gates, sprues, runners and flash. The scraps are usually removed by the use of a special trim die located inside a hydraulic or power press.

A more conventional method is employed by separating the scraps by sawing or by hand. This often requires grinding in order to smoothen out the scrap marks. Scraps that come off from this process are usually recycled by re-melting and are then used up again in another die casting process.

Examples of Die Casting: Die Casting 101

Examples of Die Casting: Die Casting 101. When talking about the process of molding metal, the best method to use is die casting. Die casting involves employing molten hot metal and forcing it under high pressure and then pouring it into mold cavities. The most common metals used for die casting are usually non-ferrous metals; these include zinc, aluminum, magnesium, copper, lead, tin, and pewter-based metal alloys. Even though, castings made of iron are possible, this is impractical since iron is a much more difficult metal to manipulate than the others and because it cost more.

The die casting method is especially designed for applications where there is a need for large numbers of medium to small sized parts needed. Die casting method is preferred over all the others since it preserves the surface quality of the metal and at the same time its dimensional consistency.

The flexibility and versatility that come with employing die casting has made it one of the fields of metalworking that has achieved the greatest volume products made in the industry. The science of die casting has evolved to also include injection-molded parts made up of plastic. Plastic is replacing metal die casts since it is cheaper and lighter and is a perfect alternative if the die cast does not require strength or hardness.
