RF/EMI Shielding Die Casting Parts in 2023
RF/EMI shielding Die Casting Parts. Die Casting Parts RF/EMI Properties.
Aluminum is one of the most abundant “metallic” materials on earth. Aluminum is also one of the most electrically conductive materials. Because aluminum is electrically conductive, it is a natural shield for radio frequency waves.
Aluminum Heat Sink Die Casting
Kinetic Die Casting Company produces many types of aluminum die casting parts. Many times, an aluminum housing or enclosure was made from aluminum because of the natural electrical conductivity of aluminum.
The picture at the top of this newsletter is an electronic enclosure that was die cast in A413 aluminum because of its electronic EMI/RF properties. Perhaps, you should consider aluminum if you are thinking of designing a new electronic enclosure.
Kinetic Die Casting manufactures aluminum die castings creating aluminum die casting boxes, aluminum handle hardware, and aerospace die casting. If you would like to get a quote, please visit our website: Kinetic Die Casting Company

Aluminum Die Casting Parts Draft Angle-Draft Angle in Die Castings in 2023
Aluminum Die Casting Parts Draft Angle – Draft Angle in Die Castings. When someone asks me “what is draft angle in a box?” or “why do I need a draft angle on my aluminum die casting box part?” The technical answer is, all aluminum die castings require a draft angle on the walls of die cast box parts perpendicular to the parting plane or parallel to the slide interfaces. Since I have selling die cast parts for over 20 years, I find simple answers and provide simple calculations for my customers. What does that mean to the typical engineer (any engineer other than tooling or mechanical) or professional buyer?
I try to give examples that most people can relate to, because most people do not have a need to concern themselves with how things are made, only what is made, and will it be what they need. I ask, “Have you ever noticed on a cupcake the bottom diameter is smaller that the top diameter?” or “Have you noticed that a cake pan has sides that slope in toward the middle of the pan?” That would be an extreme example of a draft angle. Aluminum die castings would stick inside the die casting tool, molds, or die casting die if there was not enough draft angle in the tool and part. The typical draft angle for an aluminum die casting part is two degrees per side. The calculation for that is simple if a person is familiar with die casting production part design, but is not familiar to most people.
Picture an enclosure (or Aluminum Box) sitting on a table with the open side up. The aluminum box is 2″ deep inside with the height and width 4″ each way on outside. The walls of the box are 0.10″ thick. Due to the wall thickness, a few things are evident to a part designer concerning this simple box:
- The overall height of the box is 2.10″ tall.
- The interior of the box at the top of the opening is 3.80″ x 3.80″.
A 2 degree draft angle will change the dimensions in the following on the interior and exterior and should be considered if something needs to fit inside the box or outside the box:
- The top inside dimension of the box will be 3.80″ and the bottom inside will be 3.664″
- The top outside dimension of the box will be 4.00″ and the bottom outside will be 3.864″
If the box was designed for the interior of 4″ x 4″ at the bottom: box:
- The top inside box dimension needs to be 4.136″
- The outside top box dimension will be 4.336″.

Aluminum Auto Parts Reduce Car Weight by Half in 2023
Aluminum Auto Parts Reduce Car Weight by Half
The automobile manufacturing industry has been using aluminum auto parts for many years now. Most of the cars that have been produced in the last few decades have parts that have been made from aluminum die casts. These parts include valve covers, aluminum alloy wheels, carburetors, and some specialty hardware components.
The concept was already afloat in the 1950s and 1960s when a researcher created car parts out of metal sheets that can be stretched five times more than those formed by standard techniques in molding. This made the conclusion that aluminum is a more cost-effective material in manufacturing auto parts.
Carmakers are aware that they will easily be able to shape aluminum auto parts as techniques are continuously being developed. Car parts made out of aluminum would be lighter and therefore, more fuel-efficient. The problem is that the metal often tears whenever they are stamped into shape. An automobile body’s weight can be reduced to half if aluminum will be used instead of steel. However, aluminum is still quite hard to form and shape.
Scientists have developed a process that combines the traditional metal stamping processes with electromagnetic forming technology. This hybrid of technology can then produce excellent auto parts without the aluminum getting torn in the process. The tool stamps the general shape of the automotive part while the electromagnetic pulses are in charge of helping form and refine the details.
With studies being conducted nonstop to perfect the processing of aluminum without tearing it, soon more and more aluminum auto parts will be incorporated into newly manufactured cars.
