How Mold and Tool Maintenance Helps in Quality Die Casting
While carrying out die casting, the maintenance of mold and the foundry is of utmost importance. It can improve the production process by increasing the efficiency and thus save valuable time. Due to this, most of the die casting companies operates mold maintenance and tooling department. These specialized departments will help in the maintenance of […]
Read MoreAn Overview of Casting Tin Alloys
Tin is one of the oldest metals used by human beings. The metal is known for its fluidity and low melting point. Owing to the softness and formability of the metal, it is easy to use tin to make alloys with other metals. Tin has a high boiling point and is solderable and non-toxic. Another […]
Read MoreHow Foundries Asses the Right Shape of the Component in High-Pressure Die Casting
Components having different shapes not confined to standard morphology can be made via high-pressure die casting. In the design phase, foundries often collaborate with designers for being creative when it comes to creating the desired component shape. In the case of technical components, die casters opt for the suitable shape provided by Finite Element Method […]
Read MoreWhy Die Casters Integrate Tooling Unit with the Mold Maintenance Unit
Global foundries run mold maintenance units that range from small to complex units inside the facility. The inclusion of the mold maintenance and the tooling unit in the foundry can bring economic windfalls, and can help to monitor time when engineers die cast components in the foundry. The respective units will come in handy at […]
Read MoreWhy is Die Casting an Eco-Friendly Process
One of the major reasons why die casters prefer die casting over other metal shaping processes is that it is eco-friendly. The metal shaping process of die casting can put recyclable materials to good use and it is also capable of significantly reducing waste materials. If the die casting company you are working with is […]

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 […]

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 […]
