2016 Die Casting Design Competition
Innovative Die Castings Wanted – Submit Your Entry to the International Die Casting Design Competition
In a competitive global market, customers take notice of the best. North American Die Casters Association (NADCA) knows that competition improves the competitor. With its annual Die Casting Competition, it recognizes and rewards the outstanding casting designs of the year.
Entering and winning is one of the best ways to gain visibility with leading decision-makers. The competition is open to aluminum, magnesium, zinc die castings and other alloy families. Any number of castings may be entered. However, a separate entry form is required for each casting or assembly of castings. In addition, the metal surface cannot be improved or concealed by tumbling, shot blasting, coating or other surface treatments.
Judging is conducted by an independent panel of experts from the die casting industry, with no ties to eligible companies. The four equally weighed criteria are ingenuity of casting/product design; overall quality; cost savings; and market-expanding potential. Winning castings will be displayed during the 2016 Die Casting Congress & Tabletop in Columbus, OH and winners will be honored during the Die Casting Awards Luncheon. NADCA’s Die Casting Engineer Magazine, NADCA’s Website and the NADCA Design Website will also feature the winning castings.
This competition helps promote increased use of die castings by recognizing and publicizing outstanding designs. For more information on the 2016 International Die Casting Design Competition please visit, www.diecasting.org/castings/competition or contact Beau Glim at glim@diecasting.org. The deadline to submit your casting is July 1, 2016. Don’t hesitate (Article from NADCA, visit their website for more details)

Golf Products made from Aluminum Die Casting
Golf Products made from Aluminum Die Casting. Golf products are just one of the many things that you can produce with aluminum die casting. This process, known popularly as die casting, involves producing parts made out of strong, cost-efficient, and durable alloys and materials. This is done by forcing molten metal into aluminum or steel die cast molds through high pressure. Interestingly enough, the molds being used can be designed in such a way that they can produce complex shapes that make it more durable, tolerable, and long-lasting. Golf handles, balls, and parts used in golf carts are just some of the golfing equipment that can be made with aluminum die casting.
Because aluminum die casting produces the parts fast and are known to be durable, stable, and can be made into different shapes, most manufacturers of golf products use this method to create their aluminum golf products. Addressing the need to produce golf products that actually improve a player’s game, many companies are now selling aluminum golf products in the market today. Golf players prefer aluminum die castings of their golf products not only because of their cheaper prices but also when molded, shaped, and produced properly, these products can improve their game and lessen their handicaps. Some examples of these golf products are golf ball warmers, the heads of golf clubs, aluminum handles, brackets, and knobs in golf pull carts, and so on and so forth.

Why Aluminum Boxes?
Why Aluminum Boxes? To protect electronic machinery or components from the damages which water, moisture, dust, or abrupt shock can do, one has to use boxes which has the capability to keep the said factors away. This answers the question, “Why should you use Die Casting Aluminum Boxes?” It is because the die casting aluminum boxes can protect components from outside factors since they are made from aluminum die castings and also have die cast lids. The die cast covers can be bolted in place as a way of sealing the item. This will protect the components from factors which causes damages.
Die cast aluminum boxes can also be utilized for RF/EMI shielding. This RF (Radio Frequency) or EMI (Electrical Magnetic Inductance) shielding is important if one wants to shield electronic components from unwanted interference which radio waves and frequencies can cause. Through the use of die casting aluminum boxes, electronic components are given RF/EMI shielding since the boxes have the capability of dispersing and absorbing any external frequencies. Utilization as enclosure for computer disk drives, computer components, engine compartments, motors, communication devices, electrical junction boxes, or car transmission is also one of the reasons why these boxes should be used. Since aluminum die cast parts are also less heavy than steel parts, as a manufacturer, it is more beneficial to use this. Aside from being electrically conductive, it will allow easier and less cost of transportation since it only weigh 1/3 of the weight of the steel parts.

50 Percent Duty on Aluminum Imports

As the White House prepares to submit the Trans-Pacific Partnership to Congress in the coming months, it has been touting its record on trade enforcement to persuade lawmakers to vote for the 12-nation pact. The United Steelworkers union on Monday upped the ante on that front by asking President Barack Obama to impose a 50 percent duty on aluminum imports from China and other suppliers as soon as July.
The U.S. International Trade Commission would normally take up to six months to investigate the Section 201 petition for global import relief and make recommendations to Obama, who would have another two months to decide what action to take. However, the union is asking the ITC to make a finding of “critical circumstances” within 60 days so Obama can act quickly to keep additional U.S. aluminum smelters from closing.
If the trade panel makes that determination, the president would then have 30 days to approve some of type of provisional relief while the Section 201 case proceeds for another six to eight months, Terry Stewart, a lawyer for the union group, said.
The timing isn’t ideal for Obama’s TPP push. The aluminum case potentially puts the president on the spot by forcing him to decide whether to impose the 50-percent “provisional” duty sought by the steelworkers while the Section 201 investigation proceeds. If he decides against it or puts in place some lesser relief, that could jeopardize potential votes for the TPP pact.

Pressure Die Casting vs. Sand Casting
Pressure Die Casting vs. Sand Casting. At lower quantities sand casting is cheaper. Product quantities of over 1000 parts over a few years will cost less as a die casting. Aluminum sand cast tooling roughly costs from $500 – $7,500, depending on the size and complexity. Parts from sand casting cost $10 to $30 each. For 1000 parts the total cost is $37,500. 10,000 parts would cost over $300,000. Pressure die casting tooling on the other hand costs from $5,000 – $25,000, again depending on the size and complexity of the die cast parts. The cost for parts is between $2 to $5 each. 1000 parts would cost $30,000. A savings of $7,500. For 10,000 parts the cost would be $50,000, much less than $300,000 for sand casting parts. Die Casting Tooling can create from 100,000 parts to as much as 1,000,000 pressure die casting aluminum lighting parts.
