Title: A General Breakdown of the Die Casting Process


1
Which Metals Work Best for Die Casting in Metal
Fabrication Services Singapore?

  • As of 2018, the worldwide aluminum die-casting
    market size was valued at USD 24.91 billion. it
    had been then projected that the industry will
    experience a ten .1 Compound Annual rate of
    growth from 2019 to 2025.
  • The reason for this rate of growth is that die
    casting is becoming one among the foremost relied
    upon manufacturing methods. Die casting is
    employed within the production of a good range of
    products which will be found in only about any
    industry or vertical you'll consider.

  • Of course, like with other Metal Fabrication
    Company Singapore processes, die cast products
    will only be nearly as good because the metals
    getting used in their production.
  • The source metals will impact the general
    quality, durability, and aesthetic appearance of
    the finished product. As such, this blog will
    explore the varied metals involved within the die
    casting process.
  • Before stepping into the foremost ideal metals
    for die casting, lets first talk a touch about
    the die casting process.

What is Die Casting?
  • Die casting may be a Metal Fabrication Singapore
    process that involves forcing molten metal under
    high into reusable metal dies.
  • Die casting allows for the creation of metal
    parts with accurate dimensions, sharp definition,
    and smooth or textured surfaces.

A General Breakdown of the Die Casting Process
  • Die casting is one among the foremost popular
    Steel Fabrication Singapore methods thanks to its
    simplicity, speed, and stability. Heres a
    step-by-step check out the die casting process
  • A steel mold must be made into two (or more)
    sections to permit for the removal of castings.
  • This mold can produce thousands of castings
    quickly in succession.
  • After being securely mounted into the machine,
    the sections are arranged with one stationary
    section (fixed die half). At an equivalent time,
    the opposite section can move (injector die
    half).

6
A General Breakdown of the Die Casting Process
  • These two halves are clamped together by the
    machine thus, beginning the casting cycle.
  • The die cavity is injected with a molten metal,
    which then rapidly solidifies.
  • Once the die halves are pulled apart, the casting
    is ejected.
  • Dies are often designed to be simple or complex,
    can possess moveable slides, cores, or other
    sections, counting on the castings complexity.

7
The Two Main Die Casting Processes
  • Hot Chamber Die Casting
  • Hot-chamber die casting is simply like other
    sorts of casting therein molten metal is forced
    through the cavity of a pre-shaped mold using
    pressure. However, the difference with this
    method is that the metal is heated inside the
    casting machine instead of a separate machine or
    furnace.
  • Aluminum
  • Hot chamber die casting is employed for the
    subsequent metals
  • Zinc
  • Magnesium alloys
  • Other metals with low melting points
  • Hot chamber machines work for alloys that dont
    erode metal pots, cylinders, and plungers.

8
Cold Chamber Die Casting
  • Contrary to what the name may lead you to
    believe, cold chamber die casting doesnt
    actually involve cold metals. This process
    involves heating metal during a separate furnace
    then transferring the newly molten metal into the
    casting machine.
  • A cold chamber machine is useful for metals with
    high melting points (e.g., aluminum).
  • This process liquefies metal, then ladles it into
    a chilly chamber.
  • In the cold chamber, a plunger operated by
    hydraulics pushes the metal into the die.
