Processing of Die Casting used for Airplane Parts in 2023
Processing of Die Castings used for Airplane Parts. Die Castings used for airplane parts are increasingly demanded for the aircraft industry. This type of constructions need light weight for mobility. Moreover, it requires durability and resistances to several stresses while flying. Among metals, aluminum is processed to serve as frames or skeleton of the aircraft.
In the process of die casting, molten metal is quickly forced into a mold cavity, which is formed by two opposing dies. Very high pressures are maintained until the metal solidifies. As for aircrafts, the strength of aluminum is significantly increased by high pressure casting. It creates yield of 69%. Aluminum die castings used for airplane parts are strong against torsion and expansion stresses. These are important considerations since a flying aircraft is subjected to several forces.
In this machining process, there is always an associated imperfection called porosity. This is the amount of gas that combines with the solidifying metal, as it cools in the mold. Porosity is characterized by the size and number of air bubbles inside the finished product. There are three levels of porosity. The second and third levels are unacceptable when it comes to machining airplane parts. This is to guarantee safety of the passengers. Advanced technology in treating aluminum is applied to minimize the porosity of the frames.
Die castings used for airplane parts are usually made of different aluminum grades. For example, Al 7075 is commonly used for making frames because of its toughness. Al 5052 can be die casted into billets, planes, coils, tubes and bars.

How are Aluminum Military Parts Used in 2023?
How Are Aluminum Military Parts Used? Aluminum is an especially useful material for the military as there are countless military vehicles and equipment that are made from aluminum or with aluminum parts. The history of aluminum military parts can be traced back to 1892 when the French used aluminum for torpedo boats. In 1896, the United States Army used aluminum canteens and aluminum picket and tent pins. Sometime during the 1890s, the US Navy acquired several wide aluminum sheets to construct a large assembly (perhaps a ship superstructure). Aluminum also played a crucial role for Germany during the First World War as this was the material that Germany decided to use for their army tanks when iron and steel became scarce. During the Second World War, aluminum military parts were used for walkie-talkies, fuel drums for air transport, bridges and pontoons, searchlights, and aircraft landing mats. Presently, the military uses aluminum for its armor, vehicles, and missiles. Aluminum is the material of choice for military parts because it meets the military’s requirements for materials to be used for vehicles, weapons, and armor. Aluminum has the ability to improve protection, is light and mobile without compromising protection, is easy to weld yet is strong, and has the ability to resist corrosion under extreme weather conditions, and all these are factors that are taken into consideration when military equipment is manufactured.
