Know More about Aluminum Die Casting

Although there are various other metals used in different industries, aluminum has

been capable of leaving its marks in different sectors. Whether it is the IT industry

or the automobile industry, it has successfully provided to each of the industry the

basic raw material. Aluminum is a great conductor for heat, electricity, and

electronic transmission; it is very light and can be molded easily into desired

shapes. To serve various needs of the industry, aluminum is treated in different

manner. Most often used methods are the Aluminum extrusion and Aluminum die

casting.

Aluminum extrusion is the process in which aluminum is molded into a single shape

without any joints or cuts. It is most preferred method used for automobile and

construction of buildings. However to create small and intricate parts, aluminum die

casting method is the most preferred one. This process helps in making complex

shapes, repeating them on mass basis without causing any error in the design or

shape.

Mostly the electronic parts and aluminum parts are created using this method. Die

casting helps in creating expensive parts at a very competitive price, therefore

helping a manufacturer provide affordable high quality parts to their clients. Since

the cost of the automobile parts and electronic parts are increasing day by day, this

method has contributed in keeping the cost in control.

Under this method, aluminum is processed into shape using the cold chamber

machine high pressure die casting since it has a high melting point. While choosing

the die casting, every physical property of the metal is considered in it. The molten

metal will be fed into the cold chamber in a proper amount which is further forced

into shape using the hydraulic plunger using very high pressure. Here are some of

the qualities that make aluminum die cast the right choice for industry are:

Its light weight in comparison to other metals such as zinc and brass,

therefore easy to handle in industry.

In comparison to other alloys, it is quite strong therefore making it the most

preferred option for creating automobile parts.

Its ability to resist corrosion makes it ideal for various industries.

No hassle in painting or polishing for a presentable appearance.

Heat and electricity conducting ability.

Aluminum Die casting is the best method to create small yet complex products.

However, it is essential to keep the physical properties of the metal or alloy in mind

while exerting pressure in the cold chamber to avoid cracks or design defects.
