Competitor Special Offer 2026
Dear Die Casting Competitor – A380 Aluminum Die Casting Parts Shipped To Our Competitor In Two Weeks.
Kinetic Die Casting
All die casting companies get into situations where we cannot deliver aluminum die casting parts to our customers, as we promised. Usually, this is caused by equipment downtime or problematic, long running die casting jobs in production. One of my customers complained last year that a die casting company was requiring a 12 to 14 week lead-time.
Many of our die casting jobs are for less than 1,000 die casting parts in A380 aluminum. We are constantly changing out our 12×15 units using A380 Aluminum once or twice a week. Many of our die casting jobs require 500 die casting parts, or less.
Consider sending Kinetic Die Casting Company your 12×15 unit die tool and we will setup and ship to you your required quantity, up to 1,000 parts made in A380 aluminum, in usually less than two weeks. Also, send us your trim die, if available, and we will die trim your parts. Otherwise, we will break the gates or sand and deburr the parts. You will specify the details in your purchase order. We can ship more than 1,000 parts if needed or establish regular deliveries in smaller quantities.
Of course, we will setup and run larger quantities of 5,000 or more, complete die casting tooling, and/or other die casting alloys. These die casting part deliveries will take a little longer. Call us to discuss your needs.
With that shipment you will also receive a CofC (Certificate of Conformance) with metal certifications from our metal supplier and a Certificate of U.S. Manufacture.
Call us or email us anytime to discuss, Save this email for when you get too busy later this year.

818-982-9200 or sales@kineticdiecasting.com
ps. It is sad that this needs to be mentioned. We have worked with die casting competitors in the past. Kinetic Die Casting has never “poached” customers. We have never contacted your customers directly if you send us a die casting part job to run.

We are told the auction is due to the company relocating operations out of state.

Kinetic Die Casting Company Unveils New LK Die Casting Machine
Revolutionizing Precision Manufacturing: Kinetic Die Casting Company Unveils latest New LK Die Casting Machine (www.kineticdiecasting.com) 818-982-9200 Sales@kineticdiecasting.com
USA Die Castings Parts Prices Request for Quote Form
October 30, 2025 – In the fast-paced world of metal fabrication, where precision meets productivity, Kinetic Die Casting Company is setting a new benchmark with the recent installation of an advanced LK die casting machine. ( Click to learn: What Is Die Casting?) Based in North Hollywood, California USA, this family-owned enterprise, established in 1994, has long been a cornerstone for industries ranging from aerospace and automotive to medical devices and consumer electronics. Specializing in high-quality aluminum and zinc die castings, Kinetic Die Casting Company produces components that demand tight tolerances, superior surface finishes, and lightweight strength—qualities that have earned them a reputation for reliability and on-time delivery.
Unloading New Die Casting Machine
The star of this upgrade is a state-of-the-art 400-ton automated cold chamber aluminum die casting machine, sourced from LK Machinery, a global titan in injection molding and die casting technology. Known for engineering the colossal 4,000-ton “Giga Press” used in Tesla’s revolutionary vehicle manufacturing, LK brings that same innovative DNA to Kinetic’s facility—albeit in a more compact, versatile form. This 2025 model, which arrived 10/30/25 amid much anticipation, represents a strategic leap forward, blending cutting-edge hydraulics, enhanced metal pressure controls, and full automation to deliver unprecedented consistency.
Placing New Die Casting Machine
What sets this machine apart? Check our Frequently Asked Die Casting Questions and Answers Page. At its core is a computer-controlled shot system that meticulously regulates molten aluminum injection, minimizing defects and ensuring parts emerge with flawless dimensional accuracy—down to fractions of a millimeter. Automation extends to loading, extraction, and quality checks, slashing cycle times by up to 20% compared to legacy equipment. For Kinetic’s clients, this translates to higher volumes without compromising quality: low-quantity prototypes can now scale seamlessly to high-production runs, supporting everything from intricate lighting fixtures to rugged military hardware.
But the impact goes beyond specs. In an era where supply chain disruptions and sustainability demands are reshaping manufacturing, Kinetic’s investment underscores a commitment to domestic innovation. By keeping production stateside, the company reduces lead times—often shipping parts the same day they’re cast—and bolsters the U.S. economy. “We’re not just making parts; we’re making possibilities,” says Bob Thomas, President and CEO of Kinetic Die Casting. This machine, fully operational by late November 2025, opens doors for new partnerships, inviting engineers and procurement teams to leverage its capabilities for custom designs.
Looking ahead, Kinetic plans to integrate secondary operations like CNC machining and surface finishing directly into workflows powered by this LK powerhouse. As industries pivot toward electric vehicles and smart devices, machines like this ensure American manufacturers stay competitive on the global stage. With a projected revenue boost and expanded capacity, Kinetic Die Casting isn’t just adapting—it’s accelerating into the future of precision engineering.
