Die Casting Tooling 2020
Die Casting Tooling. Die casting is a modernization that makes it possible to mass production for manufacturers. It is the procedure of forcing molten metal under high pressure into reusable steel molds. These molds are otherwise dubbed dies. It creates multifaceted shapes with high degree of correctness and repeat-ability.
A die casting tooling is employed for high volume of production and is typically a class “A” complete die. It comes in a variety of sizes and shapes. It is frequently made from steel and often weighs several hundred pounds for a complete mold.
A die casting tooling is utilized to produce a part in a die casting machine. Surfeit aluminium from a die casting tooling is manufactured by a die casting trim, saving as much as 15% in the part price by speeding up the manufacture procedure.
Die casting dies, die casting molds and insert die are also known as die casting tooling. It comes either with single cavity or numerous cavities. If the cavity is soft, it can be damaged and wore off from erosion. It generally needs particular understanding on how to mold tooling for aluminium.
To expand its tooling life, die casting tooling needs heat treatment. Getting a prototype to test and produce a design is prudent because it’s reasonably priced and takes less time to construct. Nevertheless, once damaged, a prototype cannot be customized.
Die casting tooling is a requirement in the manufacturing industry. To get a longer life for the molds, be sure to obtain only from toolmakers that utilizes enough steel. The cost differs for trim dies and cavity inserts.

The Die Casting Part Production Process Explained 2019
What is the Die Casting Process? The Die Casting Part Production Process Explained.
Kinetic Die Casting Company uses a manufacturing process called “Die Casting” to make aluminum die casting parts and zinc die casting parts. But, what is the die casting part production process? Here is a GIF image I have on our home page to demonstrate:
demonstration of the die casting process
“Aluminum die casting is an aluminum metal parts production process where molten aluminum metal alloy is injected into a steel die, under extreme pressure, to manufacture aluminum parts” (Substitute the word “zinc” for “aluminum” in zinc die casting part production process)
Another GIF example example is on this web page:

Cold Chamber Die Casting Process
The image pictured above depicts a Cold Chamber Die Casting Machine as it makes parts. The term “Cold Chamber Die Casting” refers to a separate metal melting furnace. The High Pressure Die Casting, cold chamber die casting process follows this sequence:
Look at the die casting machine image above
- The die casting machine opens the die casting mold.
- The prior part is removed and the die cast mold is sprayed for the next part
- The aluminum is poured using a ladle into a shot cylinder
- The shot piston injects the metal into the die casting mold.
- The machine opens and the process starts again.

500 Shots Daily
Kinetic Die Casting Company uses a process of making 500 to 1000 aluminum die casting parts every day. Last week, in my multiple cavity die casting tool article, I briefly described the die casting shot cycle as: Die Open, Spray, Die Close, Inject Metal, Open Die, Eject Part and Repeat. This takes about one minute each shot cycle.
- Here are the details of each Step of the die casting production cycle:
- Die Open – The hydraulic system opens the die casting machine platens. The die casting mold is attached to the die platens, opening the die wide so the two halves can be accessed.
- Spray – Molten metal will stick to the steel die if a release agent is not used to coat the tool. The cavities, the slides, the core pins and ejector pins are sprayed also to cool them down.
- Die Close – When the die has been sprayed the machine is closed with hydraulic pressure so the two die halves are closed and sealed together. Sometimes, high pressure nitrogen gas is used to speed the die closing.
- Inject Metal – The metal is poured into the shot sleeve and a piston drives the molten metal into the mold. Hydraulic pressure is used to push the metal into the mold. Higher pressures are applied to push out gasses that cause porosity. High Pressure Nitrogen Gas is used to accelerate the piston faster and to add more pressure to squeeze out gasses.
- Open Die – The die casting machine opens the platens
- Eject Part – The Die casting machines moves a movable platen to push against the ejector plate. The ejector plate pushes the ejector pins. The ejector pins push the part out of the cavity
- – Repeat
In a nutshell, This is the die casting shot cycle. Each shot cycle takes about a minute to complete. We make 500 parts a day with a single cavity die.

Heatsink Metal Flow Video
Kinetic Die Casting Company (www.kineticdc.com) uses metal flow software to check die casting tooling metal flow into a die casting mold making two cavities of a Heat Sink Part
(Metal Flow into Mold or Die Casting Tooling).
This is an Aluminum Heat Sink Die Casting Part for the lighting industry.

Two cavity aluminum heat sink die casting molds. This 5 seconds of video happens in a small fraction of a second as the metal is injected under extreme pressure. The metal flows very rapidly into a die casting mold using 2,000 pounds per square inch of hydraulic pressure that is accelerated in high shot assisted by 700 pounds of high pressure nitrogen gas inside a die casting machine.
