Die casting products, notably in the automotive industry (engine blocks, gearbox casings), consumer electronics (smartphone housings), industrial machinery (pumps, valves), aerospace components, and household goods (light fixtures, door handles).
Other products include medical devices, hardware, and even elements in energy systems.
Die casting is widely used across various industries due to its ability to produce complex parts with high precision.
What is Die Casting?
First, the die casting process melts metal from solid to molten.
Then, similar to other molding methods, a die casting machine injects the molten metal into a mold that consists of two parts, and a hydraulic press clamps them together.
Operators either heat the metal or let it cool as it flows into the cavity between the two parts, depending on the product being manufactured.
Additionally, workers sometimes water-cool the parts through a process called “quenching” to speed up solidification and produce more products in less time.
Since die casting produces low-cost and high-volume light metal components, manufacturers commonly use fully automated and intricate production lines that can consistently create highly precise and strong metal components.
However, some other processes involve higher-cost parts, sometimes of lesser quality, and often have a slower manufacturing pace.
