History of Aluminum Die Castings

Kinetic Die Casting Company would love to give out more Almond Roca. Place your purchase orders today or click to get Die Casting Prices. Aluminum Die Casting has evolved from the original low-pressure injection method to techniques including high-pressure die casting. These modern processes are capable of producing high integrity, near net-shape aluminum die castings with excellent surface finishes.

Aluminum Die Casting has been around a long time. The earliest examples of aluminum die casting by pressure injection – as opposed to casting by gravity pressure – occurred in the mid-1800s. A patent was awarded to Sturges in 1849 for the first manually operated machine for die casting printing type. The process was limited to printer’s type for the next 20 years, but development of other shapes began to increase toward the end of the century. By 1892, commercial applications included parts for phonographs and cash registers, and mass production of many types of parts began in the early 1900s.

Today, Aluminum Die Casting is used in many aluminum part manufacturing products, such as: Automobile parts, Airplane parts, Light Fixture parts and Hand Tool parts.

There are Aluminum Die Casting manufacturing companies all over the world and in almost every continent. Look at the products in your home, car or where you work and notice the many aluminum die casting parts used in the products manufacture.

Manufactured Aluminum Hardware Handles

Manufactured Aluminum Hardware Handles. When it comes to manufacturing, one of the best metals to use in certain parts and products is aluminum. This metal is ideal because it is relatively easy to acquire, hence it is cheap. Companies can mine them almost everywhere. Not only is aluminum cheap, its characteristics are of high quality. This metal is comparable to steel when it comes to strength and durability. In terms of weight, aluminum is also significantly lighter than steel as well. This is why it is used in making hardware handles.

First of all, Aluminum Hardware Handles are designed so that it can take high amounts of punishment. It is used to be pulled, pushed, turned and takes much abuse in order to open doors and other entry ways. In using Aluminum Hardware Handles, manufacturers can be sure that it will last longer compared to other materials because of its characteristics. And by using die casting, they can also produce them faster and with better consistency.

Secondly, the manufacturing process known as die casting uses heat and pressure to make the parts or products, in this case, Aluminum Hardware Handles. The process starts with the raw aluminum, it is then subjected to an intense amount of heat in order to melt it. The liquefied metal is then injected into molds where its cavities give its shape. Using pressure of up to 30,000 PSI, the liquid metal is forced into every nook and cranny of the mold. After the mold cools down, the resulting Aluminum Handles have accurate dimensions, consistent and with great surface quality.

The Different Types of Die Cast Tooling

The Different Types of Die Cast Tooling.  Die cast tooling are the dies and the molds used for die casting. These die cast tools many forms namely Trim Dies used for die cast parts, Die Cast Family Mold Tooling, Complete Class “A” Die Cast Mold Tooling or Die Tooling, Unit Die Tooling, Prototype Die Cast Tooling Inserts and Die Cast Tooling Inserts.

The die cast tooling inserts since among all the die cast tooling, these are the least expensive. These actually are just enough steel to create cavities plus extra steel to put up with the fluctuations of the temperature of molten metal injecting under force. To extend the tooling life, the inserts should be heat treated to reach their proper hardness, not too hard and not too soft. Making it too soft will cause it to easily get damaged or easily wear from erosion and making it too hard, on the other hand could result to the steel cracking due to high temperature. Toolmakers who do not use enough steel in the inserts may reduce its potential life.

Furthermore, the die casting tooling inserts need to be supported by a type of holder so that metal could be injected into it and also to provide a sort of a path for the metal to pass and go in while the gases escape. These gases should be removed because it can produce porosity. This holder of inserts are called unit die, family die or mold base.

You will need to ask expert toolmakers to do this job for you. You just simply need to look online for you to find the expert that could help you. Varying websites of different die casting companies can be found in the internet. All you need is to choose which is the one nearest you.

Aluminum Manufacturing

Aluminum Manufacturing. Aluminum is widely used in die casting because of the properties that it possesses. Aluminum is useful even in everyday life because that is why die casting companies produce die cast parts made from this alloy. Aluminum alloy is lightweight and has good corrosion resistance. It can also take high temperatures so the things that need to be heat resistant are usually made of aluminum alloy. The things that also need high corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity are made of aluminum. Due to its high dimensional stability, aluminum alloy is used to make thin walls and complex shapes.

Furthermore, Aluminum die casting part types can depend on the combination of alloying elements such as silicon and copper. Zinc can also be used as alloying element to aluminum. The combination of the properties of the different alloys allows the production of high quality products. Silicon increases melt fluidity that is why complex parts such as connector housings and thin walls are made of aluminum with silicon. When copper is used as the alloying element, the part has increased hardness and decreased ductility.

Aluminum part types can be differentiated on the amount of alloying element present. Aluminum types are Alloy A380, A360, A369, A390, A413, and A518. They are series of aluminum alloys so expect to see alloy types with decimals. The Alloy A380 is the most common aluminum alloy used in die casting. Lawnmower housings and gears are usually made of AA 380. Escalator parts and conveyor parts are usually made of Alloy 518. Parts that need high corrosion resistance are made of Alloy A360 aluminum parts.

Parts differ in the content of alloying element that makes the aluminum part types. They also cater to the different needs of the consumers and the producers as well. These are the most common Aluminum Alloy Types.
