Aluminum Die Casting Parts from a USA Die Casting Company in 2023
Aluminum Die Casting Parts from a USA Die Casting Company? Aluminum diecasting is the least expensive manufacturing process for producing high quantities of intricate aluminum parts. Aluminum die casting is a metal part manufacturing process in which molten aluminum is injected into a steel die or mold to produce up several thousand parts a week. Many times the die cast tool will produce over 100,000 parts before it will need to be replaced.
Aluminum Diecasting is a worldwide competitive manufacturing process. American businesses will search the world over for the lowest die casting prices; they will even order die castings from a non-American source to save a few dollars. These savings sometimes do not include the cost of excellence, the customs and freight charges, and finally, the cost of increased die casting inventory. Our quality and delivery of die castings are in many cases far superior. We not only save our customers the cost of inventory, in many orders our deliveries can be ahead of schedule.

How Can Trim Dies Save Me Money on Die Casting Parts in 2023?
How Can Trim Dies Save Me Money on Die Casting Parts? – Is a question, I get asked frequently from potential customers and current customers.
I will discuss what a die casting part trim die is and what it does, but first we need to know a little about how die casting parts are made. The Die Casting Trim Die is part of the die casting part tooling package.
- Die Casting is a manufacturing process where a company melts metal, typically aluminum or zinc, and then injects that metal into a die or mold using extreme pressure.
The molten metal is under so much pressure that the metal “flashes” out around the edges of the part inside the die casting mold. This excess metal is also called “flash”. This flash is typically very thin, sometimes paper thin, wall of metal. The flash is frequently sharp and can cut fingers if not handled carefully. After the part cools sufficiently, the flash must be removed before we can ship the die cast part to our customer.
- The most common ways to remove flash are:
- Using a file or sander – Somewhat labor intensive and subject to “artistic interpretation” from the worker. Not always consistent in the process.
- Using a trim die – A trim die cuts consistently .005″ to .010″ close to edge of the die casting part like a cookie cutter. Is also the fastest way to remove flash.
The trim die is in two parts and each half is bolted on either the upper or lower platen of a trim press. The trim press has typically 15 to 20 tons of closing pressure. The press raises and lowers as the worker actuates the buttons. The die casting part fits perfectly in the trim die bottom, the trim die top half closes on the part and uses a cutting edge to cut the excess metal (flash) away from the part.
Because the trim die cuts the flash from the part accurately and consistently, the part quality is always better when a trim die is used to remove the a flash. So, less money is wasted on poor part quality. The trim press also operates faster than the die casting machine so the flash removal takes less time and labor, thus saving money in part production.
Each of our die casting production cells at Kinetic Die Casting Company has at least one trim press to accommodate a trim die for every die casting production part order. Every customer who owns a trim die, saves money on their part price. Call us today for a FREE competitive part price proposal to make your parts 818-982-9200.

Sand Casting Compared to Die Casting in 2023
Sand Casting Compared to Die Casting. If you are wondering which is better- sand casting or die casting – then this is the right article for you. Whether you need to know about sand casting or die casting advantages or a assessment of both, this article will certainly help you.
In order to have a stronger view of what is better, you must first know what these two methods are all about. Sand casting, as its name proposes, forms its mold with the help of a pattern or model which is pressed into a kind of sand mixture. Die casting on the other hand utilizes toughened tool steel as a mold in making its cast parts.
Both processes are decent choices of metal casting method. It just determined by what kind of metal parts you plan to cast or produce. For big hollow metal parts like cast aluminum automobile parts, sand casting is characteristically used. For minor and more detailed metal parts, die casting is the more perfect process. The casting weight range for sand casting is essentially unlimited while die casting has a range from 1oz up to 20 pounds.
When it comes to mass producing parts, which involves intricate details and flat surface, die casting is the more ideal method. It is because die casting process has a dimensional tolerance of as low as .001 inch, while sand casting has a minimum of .010 inches.
Money-wise, initial expenses for die casting are pricier than the first costs used for of sand casting. Nevertheless, in the long run, die casting has a lot inexpensive labor cost associated to the labor cost experienced by sand casting.

Prototype Parts and Die Casting Parts in 2023
Prototype Parts and Die Casting Parts. We can help you develop your metal product with prototype parts. Kinetic Die Casting Company can make prototype metal parts for our customers, to use for evaluation, prior to making die casting tooling.
We have produced many types of “pre-production” or prototype parts for our customers. We have produced the following types of parts:
SLA
SLC
Sand Castings
Prototype machined parts
Custom Metal Parts …… READ MORE
We can take your 3D model and create a Stereo Lithography ( SLA ). SLA is a process that converts a three dimensional (3D) file into a plastic part in a matter of a few hours or days. Kinetic Die Casting has provided many SLA parts to prove a design for our customers.
With the SLA we can then make a SLC or Sand Casting. A SLC is when we coat the SLA with a material to create a “one up” tool …. Metal Prototype Parts
A sand casting will use the SLA to “make an impression in the sand” over an over to make a few parts.
In some cases, we can modify an existing die casting part to use as your prototype. In other cases, we can machine your parts from raw aluminum using a CNC machine.

Kinetic Die Casting April 2023
All of our customers are manufacturers. This year is challenging to many manufacturing companies. Both good and bad challenges. A few of our manufacturing company customers are struggling to stay in business. A few of our customers are faced with higher production and delivery demands than ever before. At Kineticdc, we are not different from other manufacturing companies. We are having negative challenges with unusually high natural gas costs, difficulty in finding and training qualified labor workers as well as experienced die casting managers. We are also struggling with our cash flow as a result of all the negative issues above. The good challenge is that we are headed in 2023 to the best manufacturing year ever by working extra hours and more production shifts for our customers’ increased demand.
Thank you for trusting us to make your production parts of aluminum and zinc die casting parts.
