Cold Chamber Die Castings – A Look at the Procedure. Die casting is a method that is in one way or another similar to that of permanent mold casting. The only point of difference lies in the fact that the metal is actually injected into the mold by using a high pressure. This enables the production of a more accurate dimension and better surface finish, so to speak. On many occasions, the use of post machining can already be eliminated since the output is totally great. Light machining procedures may be required in some instances just for the purpose of sizing up the dimensions. Now the cold chamber die castings are also among the many methods employed these days.

With the popularity of cold chamber die castings comes the usefulness of zinc-aluminum alloys. It is due to the fact that among other alloys, the zinc-aluminum alloys have high melting points. The cold chamber is also known as the cylindrical sleeve and it is where the molten metal is poured. The medium used is either a manual hand ladle or an automatic ladle. There is likewise a hydraulically operated plunger which closes the cold chamber port and then forces the metal directly towards the locked die using high pressures.

In terms of the procedure of cold chamber die castings, the molten cast metal that is inputted into the cold chamber or cylindrical sleeves experiences a reduced time exposure to the plunger or its walls. Along with aluminum alloys, the copper alloys are also used along with iron because of their properties which are very much conducive for use with higher temperatures.
