Why should you use Die Casting Aluminum Boxes?
Why should you use Die Casting Aluminum Boxes? To protect electronic machinery or components from the damages which water, moisture, dust, or abrupt shock can do, one has to use boxes which has the capability to keep the said factors away. This answers the question, “Why should you use Die Casting Aluminum Boxes?” It is because the die casting aluminum boxes can protect components from outside factors since they are made from aluminum die castings and also have die cast lids. The die cast covers can be bolted in place as a way of sealing the item. This will protect the components from factors which causes damages.
Aside from this, die cast aluminum boxes can also be utilized for RF/EMI shielding. This RF (Radio Frequency) or EMI (Electrical Magnetic Inductance) shielding is important if one wants to shield electronic components from unwanted interference which radio waves and frequencies can cause. Through the use of die casting aluminum boxes, electronic components are given RF/EMI shielding since the boxes have the capability of dispersing and absorbing any external frequencies. Utilization as enclosure for computer disk drives, computer components, engine compartments, motors, communication devices, electrical junction boxes, or car transmission is also one of the reasons why these boxes should be used. Since aluminum die cast parts are also less heavy than steel parts, as a manufacturer, it is more beneficial to use this. Aside from being electrically conductive, it will allow easier and less cost of transportation since it only weigh 1/3 of the weight of the steel parts.

The Advantages of Aluminum Chassis Castings Over Steel
The Advantages of Aluminum Chassis Castings Over Steel. High pressure die casting is the process used to make aluminum die cast parts and chassis castings. This process is now becoming more and more popular in several major manufacturing industries because of its many advantages.
Aluminum is a great metal to work with. Unlike other metals, it has plenty of strengths. The metal can be found almost everywhere in the planet. Supply will not run out, so it is easy to acquire and not heavy on your pockets.
Advantages of aluminum chassis castings over steel include:
- three times greater axial load strength
- Faster production rate. In fact, production quantities can be done within a few days instead of several weeks!
- Fewer failures and returns to the OEM
- Weight is lighter by two and a half times for lesser shipping costs
- Less finishing costs
- Raw parts manufacturing costs are much less
- Better looking parts
You can produce aluminum die casts according to your preference and specifications, such as the trim, clean, machine, inspect, powder coat and the package of your aluminum cast parts.
All in all, the use of aluminum castings over still helps you reduce weight, boost strength, and save you more money.

ALUMINUM BOXES AND ENCLOSURES
ALUMINUM BOXES AND ALUMINUM ENCLOSURES. What sensation aluminum has become in the hardware market is no secret. The metal and its derivatives are being widely being used in not only huge companies such as automobiles and aeronautics but also in small scale usage such as boxes and enclosures for mundane activities. Here is guide to the benefiting properties which make aluminum a favorite over its other metal and alloy counterparts, especially when it comes to boxes and enclosures. This article would also successfully hope to throw light on different purpose for which the boxes are being manufactured for.
? DURABILITY
Aluminum is, as of now, the most durable and its product the most stable, as compared to any other metal and its products if gauged on the scale of practical use. The aluminum boxes and enclosure, whether big or small are highly resistant to corrosive reactions and this one property is largely responsible for aluminum’s long life span.
? PROTECTS THE STORED MATERIAL
Aluminum and the derivatives obtained from it have a very low reactivity when they come in contact with air. There may be many elements and metals which are much lighter and durable than aluminum but lose out because they react vigorously when kept in the atmosphere. These highly reactive metals cannot be used to make something for casual use like normal boxes. Aluminum, being low on reactivity protects the stored material inside form reactants and attacks from outside.
? LIGHTER AND GOOD TEXTURE
Aluminum is very light as compared to other alloys/metals. This is one reason that huge enclosures which to be transported over long distances are made out of aluminum so that loading and unloading is a much easier task.
But these quality aluminum products are slightly costlier than those made from other metals but it is just an initial investment.

All-Around Aluminum
An All-around Aluminum. It is a commonly known fact that equipment and accessories that the military use are mostly made up of aluminum parts made from aluminum die casting company. But did you also know that other people get to use these parts, too?
People who are not in the service also make use of these aluminum die cast parts. Aluminum boxes, aluminum enclosure parts, and aluminum box housing parts also make use of these aluminum die casted components. In the automotive industry make use of these enclosures as the engine compartments automobiles and trucks are made up of these. Companies who produce parts for computers as well as communication companies also use these parts as housing for disk drives and enclosures.
Even the food industry makes use of these aluminum die casting parts as heater plates used in chocolate fountains are made up of these aluminum parts. Having these chocolate fountains in your parties and celebrations definitely makes the festivities more fun and memorable. All that made possible by these aluminum parts.
Homes also make use of these aluminum parts. Tiles that are used on roofs are usually made from them as well as roofing tile molds.
Aside from this already long list of things that are made from aluminum die casting parts, there are still a lot more stuff out there that cannot be made without these aluminum parts. Having that said, these aluminum die casting parts then are very important components in the everyday things and equipment that we use. Without them, the everyday comfort that we get from the things that they make up would not be available anymore.

Enclosure Boxes
Aluminum Enclosure Boxes and the many other uses of Aluminum. Aluminum enclosure boxes are becoming a preference for many enclosure manufacturing companies for their packaging requirements. The custom enclosure boxes are used as enclosure housings for various products like electronic enclosure components.
The usual packaging types are made of corrugated paper materials, plastic, turned edge, or wood. The aluminum enclosure is a relatively new option for packaging. The enclosure boxes can be in tote style, two-piece set up, or those similar to the CD/DVD boxes.
Aluminum Alloy is a silvery white metal that is ductile, malleable, and conductive of heat and electricity. In its pure state, this metal is soft. It becomes stronger and harder once alloyed with many other elements. Aluminum is one of the most abundant metals on earth, but it does not occur without combining with others. It can be found in many minerals like clay, bauxite, mica, feldspar, alum, and others like sapphire and ruby.
This metal is lightweight and is commonly found at home, in the kitchen specifically. Pots, pans, beverage cans, and the aluminum foil are made from aluminum. Many of its properties make it the a very good choice for a raw material in making housings or enclosures:
– Attractive
– Non-toxic
– Resistant to corrosion
– Non-magnetic
– Easy to form, cast, or process into different shapes
– Lightweight
– Electrically conductive
Aluminum alloys are commonly used in airplane enclosures, highway enclosures and road signs, bridges, storage tanks, and buildings too. Auto manufactures prefer aluminum enclosures because it is 1/3 as heavy as steel enclosures and that means lower consumption of fuel.
It is not surprising that aluminum enclosure boxes are becoming a new preference for enclosures even for smaller items because of its many beneficial properties.
