The Uses of Aluminum Lighting Fixture Parts in 2023
The Uses of Aluminum Lighting Fixtures. Aluminum lighting fixture parts are electrical devices mainly used for creating artificial light and illumination for homes and buildings. They are used either for indoor or outdoor lighting fixtures. Before the invention of aluminum die casting, lighting fixtures are created through welding techniques, making the system expensive and time consuming. Now, the science of aluminum die casting makes the process easier and a whole lot faster.
Usually, Aluminum lighting fixture parts consist of: a light source (lamp), a light reflector, an aperture (with or without lens), an outer shell or housing for alignment and protection, an electric ballast and connection to a power source. They are often used at the automotive lighting industry, marine lighting, medical lighting and aerospace lighting.
Furthermore, Aluminum lighting fixture parts are lightweight, durable and long lasting, making them ideal for several uses. They are often used to strengthen construction both on the inside and outside many establishments. They allow easier construction for different lighting techniques. This makes them very versatile, and can be used for many purposes: medical offices, parking garage lighting, bullet lights, street traffic lights, walk lights, outdoor coach light fixtures and high temperature light fixtures. They are also available in a wide array of shapes and sizes, ensuring better output and production of different lighting systems.

How Can Trim Dies Save Me Money on Die Casting Parts in 2023?
How Can Trim Dies Save Me Money on Die Casting Parts? – Is a question, I get asked frequently from potential customers and current customers.
I will discuss what a die casting part trim die is and what it does, but first we need to know a little about how die casting parts are made. The Die Casting Trim Die is part of the die casting part tooling package.
- Die Casting is a manufacturing process where a company melts metal, typically aluminum or zinc, and then injects that metal into a die or mold using extreme pressure.
The molten metal is under so much pressure that the metal “flashes” out around the edges of the part inside the die casting mold. This excess metal is also called “flash”. This flash is typically very thin, sometimes paper thin, wall of metal. The flash is frequently sharp and can cut fingers if not handled carefully. After the part cools sufficiently, the flash must be removed before we can ship the die cast part to our customer.
- The most common ways to remove flash are:
- Using a file or sander – Somewhat labor intensive and subject to “artistic interpretation” from the worker. Not always consistent in the process.
- Using a trim die – A trim die cuts consistently .005″ to .010″ close to edge of the die casting part like a cookie cutter. Is also the fastest way to remove flash.
The trim die is in two parts and each half is bolted on either the upper or lower platen of a trim press. The trim press has typically 15 to 20 tons of closing pressure. The press raises and lowers as the worker actuates the buttons. The die casting part fits perfectly in the trim die bottom, the trim die top half closes on the part and uses a cutting edge to cut the excess metal (flash) away from the part.
Because the trim die cuts the flash from the part accurately and consistently, the part quality is always better when a trim die is used to remove the a flash. So, less money is wasted on poor part quality. The trim press also operates faster than the die casting machine so the flash removal takes less time and labor, thus saving money in part production.
Each of our die casting production cells at Kinetic Die Casting Company has at least one trim press to accommodate a trim die for every die casting production part order. Every customer who owns a trim die, saves money on their part price. Call us today for a FREE competitive part price proposal to make your parts 818-982-9200.

Sand Casting Compared to Die Casting in 2023
Sand Casting Compared to Die Casting. If you are wondering which is better- sand casting or die casting – then this is the right article for you. Whether you need to know about sand casting or die casting advantages or a assessment of both, this article will certainly help you.
In order to have a stronger view of what is better, you must first know what these two methods are all about. Sand casting, as its name proposes, forms its mold with the help of a pattern or model which is pressed into a kind of sand mixture. Die casting on the other hand utilizes toughened tool steel as a mold in making its cast parts.
Both processes are decent choices of metal casting method. It just determined by what kind of metal parts you plan to cast or produce. For big hollow metal parts like cast aluminum automobile parts, sand casting is characteristically used. For minor and more detailed metal parts, die casting is the more perfect process. The casting weight range for sand casting is essentially unlimited while die casting has a range from 1oz up to 20 pounds.
When it comes to mass producing parts, which involves intricate details and flat surface, die casting is the more ideal method. It is because die casting process has a dimensional tolerance of as low as .001 inch, while sand casting has a minimum of .010 inches.
Money-wise, initial expenses for die casting are pricier than the first costs used for of sand casting. Nevertheless, in the long run, die casting has a lot inexpensive labor cost associated to the labor cost experienced by sand casting.

Prototype Parts and Die Casting Parts in 2023
Prototype Parts and Die Casting Parts. We can help you develop your metal product with prototype parts. Kinetic Die Casting Company can make prototype metal parts for our customers, to use for evaluation, prior to making die casting tooling.
We have produced many types of “pre-production” or prototype parts for our customers. We have produced the following types of parts:
SLA
SLC
Sand Castings
Prototype machined parts
Custom Metal Parts …… READ MORE
We can take your 3D model and create a Stereo Lithography ( SLA ). SLA is a process that converts a three dimensional (3D) file into a plastic part in a matter of a few hours or days. Kinetic Die Casting has provided many SLA parts to prove a design for our customers.
With the SLA we can then make a SLC or Sand Casting. A SLC is when we coat the SLA with a material to create a “one up” tool …. Metal Prototype Parts
A sand casting will use the SLA to “make an impression in the sand” over an over to make a few parts.
In some cases, we can modify an existing die casting part to use as your prototype. In other cases, we can machine your parts from raw aluminum using a CNC machine.

Optimal Die Casting Production part Quantity in 2023?
Optimal Die Casting Production Part Quantity? “I need to buy several thousands of parts to buy die castings”. That is the most common myth or false belief people have regarding the optimal die casting part production quantity. We believe, the optimum production quantity of die casting parts is, the quantity of parts you need to buy.
Unfortunately, many die casting companies also believe the “high quantity only” myth. Some die casting companies perpetuate that myth to force their customers into buying more parts than they need. They refuse smaller quantity purchase orders unless their customers pay a very high “set-up charge”. Sometimes, they will push out delivery of lower part quantities to over 12 weeks, in an effort to dissuade the lower quantity part purchase orders. Then sometimes the part quality is “lacking” but the parts are needed so badly, the sub-quality parts are accepted because we do not have 12 more weeks to wait for replacement parts.
Kinetic Die Casting is thrilled to accept die casting part purchase orders of any quantity. We will accept part purchase orders with deliveries of 10,000 parts or less. Many of our part purchase orders have part deliveries of less than 1,000 parts. In fact, many of our aerospace part purchase orders have deliveries of less than 100 parts and sometimes less than 10 parts.
Our part deliveries range from four to six (4-6) weeks for raw castings. No matter what quantity you want, as long as it is less than 10,000 parts. In most cases we will ship your parts in less than six weeks, if we do not need to wait for outside processes to hold up our part delivery.
In most production part purchase orders, we ship your parts the day we make your parts. We do not have departmental delays that can take several days or weeks to process the parts after the parts are produced.
Our optimal die casting part production quantity, is the quantity you want to buy. Contact us today for a competitive price. Your delivery will be less than six weeks.
