Die casting application range

Die casting is one of the advanced metal forming methods. It is an effective way to achieve less chips and no chips. It is widely used and developed rapidly. At present, die-casting alloys are no longer limited to non-ferrous metals such as zinc, aluminum, magnesium and copper, but are also gradually expanded to be used for die-casting iron and steel castings.

The size and weight of die castings depend on the power of the die casting machine. As the power of the die-casting machine continues to increase, the shape and size of the casting can range from a few millimeters to 1 to 2m; the weight can range from a few grams to tens of kilograms. Foreign aluminum castings can be die-cast with a diameter of 2m and a weight of 50kg. Die-casting parts are no longer limited to the automobile industry and instrument industry, but gradually expanded to other industrial sectors, such as agricultural machinery, machine tool industry, electronics industry, defense industry, computers, medical equipment, clocks, cameras, and daily hardware, etc. industry. In terms of die-casting technology, new processes such as vacuum die-casting, oxygen-added die-casting, precision fast-dense die-casting and the application of soluble cores have emerged.
