Die Casting Tooling in 2022
Die Casting Tooling. Die casting is an industrial process used by manufacturers which involves forcing melted metal into Die Casting Tooling or also known as molds under extremely high pressure. This process is commonly used in cases where a manufacturer would need a large quantity of small-sized or medium-sized parts. This process can make use of ferrous metals but it usually uses nonferrous materials such as copper, zinc, aluminum, and magnesium among other metals. Die casting is a great process to use where the manufacturer needs to maintain a smooth surface, good quality of parts, and a fairly uniform outcome for each part. There is little or sometimes no need for post-production machining to uniform the parts.
There are two ways to achieve this process; the first is to use the hot chambered machine and the second is to use the cold chambered machine. The former is used for metals with lower melting points and can fill in the cavities of Die Casting Tooling faster compared to the latter. However, there are metals that hot chambered machines cannot handle so cold chambered machines are used in their place.
When it comes to Die Casting Tooling, there are different sizes and shapes to choose from. There are also different styles to use and the cost will vary based on the simplicity or complexity of the mold. They are built usually from hardened steel which takes a lot of time to finish. This is the main part of the whole die casting process and is the most important part.

What is the Quality of Die Casting Parts in 2022?
Die Casting Part Quality, What Is The Quality Of Die Casting Parts?
Die casting parts are formed in a die casting tool to a specific shape and size. The variance of one die casting part to another part from the same tool after the tool is proven is very little.
The typical dimensional tolerance for a die casting part is about +/- .002″ from point to point over a short distance. Once the die casting tool is proven, the dimensions from point to point vary only a little. The blue print tolerance for a two decimal dimension (.xx) is usually +/- .015″ and the typical three decimal dimension (.xxx) tolerance is +/- .010.
The biggest variance on a die casting part are measurements:
1. From one side of the parting line to the other, or
2. Dimensions measured from a slide to another part feature.
PARTING LINE
The parting line is the area on the part where the two sides of the tool meet and create a seam in the material.
SLIDE
A slide is a solid member in the tool that creates under cuts. An undercut is a feature that can not be created by pulling the tool apart or a feature that is not perpendicular to the parting line.
Other issues such as POROSITY or FLATNESS or WALL THICKNESSES will be discussed in other newsletters.
