Die Casting Aerospace Parts
Kinetic Die Casting Company makes several types of Die Casting Aerospace Parts. These aerospace die casting parts are used for many types of purposes. Some of these parts are used on many types of aircraft, such as: airplanes, jet planes or helicopters.
Aircraft manufacturers typically specify aluminum die casting to make the aerospace parts because aluminum is lightweight and inexpensive as well as very strong.
- Lightweight – Aluminum weighs only .098 pounds each cubic inch of material as compared to zinc which weighs about 2.44 pounds each cubic Inch.
- Inexpensive – Aluminum is the third most common element on earth, so it is more available than other materials. Aluminum is used in over 80% of all die castings produced in the world.
- Strong – Aluminum parts can be geometrically designed to be stronger than steel. Look up “aluminum is stronger than steel” on Google to see the results.
These aerospace parts range from: airplane engine piston heads, airplane distributor cap housings, fuel system parts, detention ring parts, cargo loading housings, lighting fixture parts, electronic enclosures, electronic housings, motor housings and various other aluminum die casting parts.
The companies that trust us to purchase their die casting parts from Kinetic Die Casting Company are many.

Aluminum Aircraft Parts Die Castings
Aircraft or better known as Airplanes are large, very large. They are large because they are designed to carry things, lots of things. Airplanes carry mail, gifts, shipments, food, packages, baggage, and people. Airplanes are the fastest transportation for “things” and people today. Airplanes are fast because they travel through the air. Because airplanes are big and travel through the air, the airplane construction materials need to lightweight and strong. Aluminum is used for most of the airplane components because it is lightweight and strong. The overall airplane part weight is kept down so the airplane will be able to carry more “things”. Therefore, aluminum is used a lot.

Die casting is the preferred manufacturing process for making Aluminum Aircraft Parts. The reason is because the aluminum die casting process has a lot of advantages over other high volume aircraft part manufacturing processes.
-
Aluminum Aircraft Parts Produced as Die Castings:
- Die Casting is less expensive because more than 500 or 1,000 parts can be produced each day.
- Die Casting hold tolerance typically to +/- 0.002″ after the die casting tool is approved.
- Aluminum weighs 1/3 by volume of a similar part in steel.
- Aluminum die casting parts are very strong.
- Die Castings are produced near “net shape”, reducing additional manufacturing costs.
- Die Casting Tooling reliably manufacturers parts repeatably over several thousand parts.
- Aluminum die castings do not break down over time as other materials break down.
- Aluminum die castings have an aesthetically pleasing surface finish.
- Die Casting parts look good after paint or polish.

Aluminum Aircraft Parts
The United States leads the world in manufacturing aircraft and associated systems. Military aircraft form the backbone for both national defense and projection of power. These air vehicles are essential to air superiority, strike, airlift, early warning, reconnaissance, command and control, ground attack and sea control. Fully one-third of the DOD annual budget($85 billion per year) supports aircraft expenses. Improvements in air vehicle cost and capability therefore offer significant leveraging potential for reducing defense expenditures.
Sweeping global changes in recent years have presented considerable challenges to the US aeronautics industry. Perhaps most significant is the end of the cold war, bringing dramatic cuts in defense spending including development of new aircraft and engines.
Kinetic Die Casting produces Aluminum Aircraft parts for military parts companies.

Metal Working for Aircrafts: Die Castings Used for Airplane Parts.
Metal Working for Aircrafts: Die Castings Used for Airplane Parts. When it comes to aircraft assembly parts, the most important considerations are safety, strength and reliability. The metal parts will sustain turbulence in the upper atmosphere, and they will experience inertial forces and several stresses. This is why die castings used for airplane parts are in-demand nowadays. Metal parts produced by die casting are characterized by high tensile strength, and resistance to torsional, flexural and tensional stresses.
In die casting, a pre-determined amount of molten metal is injected into a mold cavity. That cavity is formed by the cover die and the ejector die, which contain the shape of the target product. While the metal is cooling and solidifying, intense pressure is applied to compress the dies. Other than just shaping, this is a strength enhancing process. Yield can be expected to reach 69%.
Aluminum and magnesium are popular metals for die castings used for airplane parts. They are very durable, stable and with high melting points. Aluminum in particular is very light, comparable with treated plastics. These metals are used for frames and fixtures for the plane, and for fittings that connect bars and handles. Die casted Mg and Al is also present in the engine and mechanical rods.
Die casting is versatile because it can produce simple and complicated designs alike. Parts-supplying companies can finish hundreds of parts within minutes because the process is efficient for large-scale productions. Die castings used for airplane parts include plain sheets, billets and rods. More detailed castings include engine blocks, turbines and mechanical fixtures.

The Many Advantages of New Aluminum Aircraft Parts
The Many Advantages of New Aluminum Aircraft Parts. For many years now, the military and commercial aircrafts are heavily relying on the use of cast aluminum. This metal basically makes up the 80% of the general structure of the plane by weight. Perhaps the reason why cast aluminum is so popular in the aviation industry is because it has the properties that are essential for an airframe. The new aluminum aircraft parts are currently being produced to meet the demands of today’s aircraft builders.
The use of aluminum aircraft parts has seriously created an impact on the aviation industry. For one, the manufactured parts allowed the builders to cut on material expenses. They are simply ideal for large-scale fabrication of airframes. Aircraft builders have found out that they will save more on manufacturing expenses if they utilize the new aluminum aircraft parts.
Aircraft parts that are made of aluminum are actually produced through the process of die-casting. The advantages of this procedure are clearly evident. Die cast aluminum parts have accurate dimensions just like the original pieces. Aside from that, they usually come out of the molds with smooth surfaces.
The die casting companies are the main producers of aircraft parts. They can customize and duplicate a variety of component parts for their clients. They manufacture different sizes and shapes, and they can even assist their clients in formulating new design concepts for their aircrafts.
