WHAT IS DIE CASTING?
WHAT IS DIE CASTING? The process of die casting provides the backbone to the functioning of the major heavy and even light metal industries and especially in developed economies such as the US. Most of the raw material parts in hardware, auto and locomotive industries are a product of this vital process. Here is simple and short guide get elemental knowledge about this technique.
To define in a simple layman tone, die casting is a process where at high pressure and controlled conditions, molten metal is poured or forced into casts or molds and consequently give them solid definite shapes for desired purposes.
THE FOUR STEP PROCESS
- The cast is readied for pouring in the molten metal. This is done by lubricating the walls of the mold so that when the metal solidifies it is easier to take it out. The lubricant also helps in maintaining the perfect temperature for the process.
- Next the liquid metal is forced into the cast; a more technical terminology would be “shooting” the molten metal inside. It is very important that the constant high pressure is maintained at this stage. The pressure is usually ranged from 1500 to 2500 psi.
- The next step is to open the cast and then the shot/shots are taken out using ejector pins.
- The last step is to separate all the waste or scrap such as gate, runner, sprues form the pure cast of the metal.
The cast which are used are preferably made out of non ferrous metals such as copper, zinc, magnesium, aluminum and the like. In the present day the demand for aluminum products is sky high and so is the supply through aluminum die casting.

Aluminum Handle Construction at Its Finest
Aluminum Hardware Handles – Construction at Its Finest. Aluminum hardware handles are often used in constructing a lot of home furniture and equipment. A lot of people love the composition of aluminum hardware handles as it reprises sturdiness and value that are ideal for every hardware device. Aluminum handles can come in full solid shape and may come in stronger compared to normal tools used for welding. Since these handles are used for many functions and applications, it is always considered as a best purchase for home storage and in toolboxes. A lot of aluminum hardware handles are being sold in most hardware stores. Brackets of this device can also be purchased to aid in machining holes, thereby making most construction functions less expensive due to heavy equipments used for drilling.
In most instances, the aluminum handles available in the market come with brackets. These additional parts weigh almost 1/3 less compared to brackets made of steel. Aluminum-made tools are also known to be specifically conductive in terms of electricity. Since aluminum is relatively more robust than steel, you can expect that your equipment will last for a huge number of years. Kinetic die casting is being used to make these tools the best in quality aluminum hardware handles. The usual process of creating this handle takes approximately eight weeks, whereas the rest of its part samples may take well within another week of full construction. During the process of making an aluminum hardware handle, a die caster will have to use nominal draft to make the output more durable.

Aluminum Handles How to Make Them
Aluminum Hardware Handles – How to Make Them. Handles are made to be pulled, pushed and roughed up. In other words, hardware handles are designed to place pressure upon them. Overtime, these parts can accumulate damage and eventually break. This is why many home designers and manufacturers make use of aluminum to make these handles because this metal alloy has the properties needed for the purpose of hardware handles. Aluminum is hard, tough, durable and very strong. It takes a lot to break this metal alloy. Yet, this metal is very light. At the same time, aluminum is also cheap which makes it easy to mass produce Aluminum Handles through die casting.
The process known as die casting is the best way to make Aluminum Hardware Handles in bulk orders. It starts out with the raw material, aluminum alloy bars, and melts them by subjecting the bars in intense temperatures. After they liquefy, the aluminum liquid is then poured to molds known as castings. These castings will give the metal its shape and size. After the castings are cooled with water, the aluminum in it will begin to harden once again and go back to its solid state, and now it is an Aluminum Hardware Handle.
There are a number of companies out there which provides the service of die casting. It is ideal for manufacturers who don’t have the resources to purchase their own machinery for their aluminum part needs. Furthermore, die casting is a cheap process which can help companies in cutting down their production costs.
