Compare Extruded Aluminum Heatsinks to Die Casting in 2023
Aluminum is the preferred material used to produce heat sinks because of aluminum’s thermal conductive properties, the weight of the many aluminum alloys and, the natural electrical conductivity of aluminum.
EXTRUSIONS AS HEAT SINKS:
Initially, heat sinks were produced as extrusions. The extrusion process is to heat aluminum to a point just before melting temperature and then “squeeze” or extrude the aluminum through a form creating long aluminum sections that will need to be cut into the proper part lengths. Then the part is machined for mounting holes and other features. There is wasted aluminum because the material cut away cannot be used in the extrusion process again. Also, many times the lengths have left over amounts that are too short to be used to make parts.
DIE CASTINGS AS HEAT SINKS:
In the die casting process, we inject aluminum into a die forming the heat sink. As a die casting part, the mounting holes and special features can be die cast into a “net shape” part. There is not wasted aluminum in the die casting process because the excess aluminum is remelted and used to form additional parts. Also in the die casting process, there are no “left over” sections.
ADVANTAGES OF DIE CASTING HEAT SINKS:
1. Machining holes and features is not necessary saving money in the production process.
2. Time is saved in manufacturing because machining is not necessary.
3. No wasted aluminum.

The advantages of Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts over Plastic in 2023
The advantages of Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts over plastic. If you are to match aluminum audio speaker parts against plastic audio speaker parts, which do you think is better?
First of all, the first thing that you will notice with the two materials is their weight. Plastic is known to be really light as compared to metals. On the other hand, aluminum is also extremely light for a metal. So in the end, both will get points when it comes to lightness.
Lightness is important for speakers since it is easy to move around. It is also light for car audio speakers.
To get a price for aluminum die casting parts or die casting tooling, call toll free 800-524-8083 and ask for sales. Or email us at sales@kineticdc.com for a fast response on a price quote.
Both are easily molded and do not need other processes like welding.
Plastic can be as strong as steel when incorporated with other materials like glass. However, aluminum is stronger than steel while being five times lighter.
Plastic can be made translucent and in different colors so your speaker can sport unique looks. Plastic does not corrode and will last forever. Aluminum does corrode but not as much as other metals. It is quite known for this special property of being resistant to rust.
Both would last forever and are not biodegradable. You can recycle them. But plastic is too difficult and too expensive to recycle. The advantages of Aluminum Speaker Parts over plastic is that it is commonly and easily recycled to produce good quality aluminum again.

Why Use Aluminum Boxes in 2023
Why Use Aluminum Boxes?
The most electronic component would need to be protected by housing that could keep away outside factors like dust, water, moisture, or sudden impact. Aluminum boxes are suitable enclosures for such items.
These boxes are made from aluminum die casts and they have to die cast lids too. They can also be fitted with covers that can be screwed in place to seal the item away from anything that could damage it.
Aluminum boxes are used as the natural ground for electrical components. Since aluminum conducts electricity, the boxes are also used as the grounding planes for the electronic items being kept.
Many companies use these boxes for RF/EMI shielding too. The boxes used are still made using aluminum die-casting. RF (Radio Frequency) or EMI (Electrical Magnetic Inductance) shielding is means of protection or shielding against radio waves and frequencies that may interfere with the electronic components in the box. The box keeps these outside frequencies away from its content.
As an RF/EMI shield, the aluminum box is electrically conductive and can disperse and absorb any of the outside frequencies and thus, protect the electronic component that is kept inside it.
The aluminum boxes can also be used as enclosures for engine compartments, computer components, computer disk drives, communication devices, motors, car transmissions, or electrical junction boxes.
Aside from the natural conductivity of aluminum, it is a choice of manufacturers for their enclosure needs because aluminum parts weigh less than 1/3 the weight of steel. That could be more cost-effective and it allows easier transport of items.

Aluminum Handle Hardware in 2023
New Aluminum Handle Hardware. Aluminum Handles are found everywhere. At home, at the office you might not notice but you find and use it for your everyday needs. As for example, it is used for handles, common furniture, accessories and design for the house like flower pots and curtains. Aluminum handle hardware brackets are top of the line, because it produced in a way that it would last a lifetime. Through die casting, New Aluminum Hardware Brackets parts are produced as a whole, which means it is not many pieces assembled or welded together. For this reason, the brackets are harder to break or destroy. Aside from this die casting also die cast the holes in to place, thus saving time and money for manufacturer in using machining holes.
New Aluminum Hardware Brackets are recommended than steel brackets because it is very light in weight. It is very good in making you keep things in their correct position. To be exact, it is 1/3 less in weight in comparison to its competition- steel brackets. It is also electrical and heat conductive. These type of handle castings can be sturdier than steel, and are easily massed produced every day. Several methods could be done to create new aluminum hardware brackets. Examples are pressure die casting or extrusion.
