Read MoreExtrapolating the Corrosion Resistance of Chromium Plating for Zinc Die Casting
A corrosion test known as Salt Spray Test is conducted to test the coatings on the automobile parts, for testing salt or mist resistance, in particular. The Salt Spray Test can be used to extrapolate the corrosion resistance of materials such as electroplated chromium, phosphate surfaces, nickel, copper, zinc, and aluminum alloys. The machinery for […]
Read MoreBenefits of Deploying Robots in Die Casting
Aluminum is a much popular metal used by die casters and it melts at a temperature of about 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit or 650 degrees Celsius. Carbon steel is another die casting metal that melts at about 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit (1,500 degrees Celsius). These are high temperatures and that makes die cast foundries very unpleasant places […]
Read MoreWhy A380 is so Popular among Die Casters
Die casting is a highly complex metal shaping process, which requires great attention to deals. In addition to that, the metals and alloys that are used for different die casting processes also need to be selected wisely. This is why it is best to seek the help of experienced die cast mold making companies, as […]
Read More3 Main Benefits of Using Anodized Aluminum for Light Fixtures
Black hard anodizing is a post-treatment process in die casting. All aluminum materials can be color anodized, but if you choose black hard anodizing, the die cast light fixtures used will stay corrosion free and won’t discolor easily. Most aluminum reflectors can be prototyped and be made as short-run parts without the need for hard […]
Read More5 Process Enhancing Products Used by Die Casters
Die casting is a complex process of shaping metals, alloys, and other components into desired shapes. Die casters strictly follow a set of processing steps and seek the help of most modern and intricate machines to ensure that the final product is of superior quality and it meets all the requirements of the customer. In […]
Read MoreWhat is Type II Anodizing and What are its Benefits
Anodizing is an electrochemical process using which aluminum is being turned into aluminum oxide on the surface of a component. Anodizing is done to raise the thickness of the natural oxide layer on the surface of metal parts. Since Type II anodizing is common, die casters can make a porous surface finish, which can accept […]
