High pressure die casting application mainly applies for the automotive industry, aerospace industry, electronics industry, consumer goods and medical devices.
High Pressure Die Casting (HPDC) is a highly efficient metal casting process that is widely used in a number of industries to produce complex and highly accurate metal parts. The process works by injecting molten metal under high pressure into a mold cavity, which is rapidly cooled and formed into the desired part.
