Aluminum Car Parts

Most of the parts made for cars (automobiles) are made from aluminum. Aluminum is a light and strong metallic alloy. Aluminum is corrosion resistant and also durable. When cars were first on the road, most of the parts were made from iron or steel. It was thought at the time that steel and iron were strong and that parts for cars needed to be strong. It would surprise most people the percentage of aluminum car parts are in many automobiles.

Heatsink Heat Dissipation

Heat dissipation is the job aluminum heat sinks perform. Heatsinks are typically used in locations where heat needs to be dissipated such as in hydraulics and more typically in electronics applications. In hydraulic applications, heatsinks use air cooling or water cooling to assist in extracting the heat from the protected device. In electronic applications, heatsinks are more commonly expected to work using air-flow to extract heat.

Aluminum heatsinks are commonly made using aluminum die casting. Aluminum die cast heat sinks are manufactured near net shape, meaning these heat sink parts require very little additional machining to use in the desired application. These aluminum heatsinks can be produced at the rate of thousands each day. In many cases, these heat sinks can be installed and used without any additional finish such as powder coat or anodize.

Some heatsinks have been used in computers to remove heat from the electronic circuitry, this extends the life of the “motherboard”. One of the early applications of a heat sink was the aluminum shroud on the television picture tube to extend the life of the picture tube. Now, aluminum heatsinks are designed in most electronic applications to protect the devices from the heat that is naturally generated when electricity interacts with electronic circuits. Many times these heatsinks are incorporated in the enclosure or housing that holds and protects the electronic circuits. This would take advantage of incorporating two devices into one, thus saving money doing so.

When fluids are placed under extreme pressure, heat is generated. Heatsinks are used to prevent damage to the bearings or other moving parts in the hydraulic device.

Aluminum Die Casting History

Aluminum Die Casting has evolved from the original low-pressure injection method to techniques including high-pressure die casting. These modern processes are capable of producing high integrity, near net-shape aluminum die castings with excellent surface finishes.

Aluminum Die Casting has been around a long time. The earliest examples of aluminum die casting by pressure injection – as opposed to casting by gravity pressure – occurred in the mid-1800s. A patent was awarded to Sturges in 1849 for the first manually operated machine for die casting printing type. The process was limited to printer’s type for the next 20 years, but development of other shapes began to increase toward the end of the century. By 1892, commercial applications included parts for phonographs and cash registers, and mass production of many types of parts began in the early 1900s.

Today, Aluminum Die Casting is used in many aluminum part manufacturing products, such as: Automobile parts, Airplane parts, Light Fixture parts and Hand Tool parts.

There are Aluminum Die Casting manufacturing companies all over the world and in almost every continent. Look at the products in your home, car or where you work and notice the many aluminum die casting parts used in the products manufacture.

Aluminum Plate Castings

Aluminum Plates are many times made by diecasting the part. This aluminum plate was die cast because there is a lot of detail on this side. Aluminum Plate Diecasting

This aluminum plate is very strong and can withstand thousands of pounds of force from the top and the ribs prevent the plate from colapse. This aluminum plate is another example of how diecasting can be a better resource than other aluminum manufacturing processes.
