Sand Casting and Die Casting Light Fxtures KDC
Kinetic Die Casting Company has made Aluminum Die Casting Lighting Fixture Parts from aluminum sand castings. A customer who is a lighting fixture parts manufacturer purchased an aluminum sand casting fixture for one of his lighting products. This sand cast part is an “Aluminum Trolley Mount” used to hold his lighting fixtures from the ceiling in a room. This aluminum trolley fixture has to be strong and look good to be part of his lighting products. He has been using this aluminum sand casting for quite a long time. The initial sand casting cost less to get started with a new product line and die casting cost a little more. The sand casting tooling costs less than $5,000 to get started and the part price in this case is about $70 each part. My customer buys about 50 parts a month. His total cost to purchase these castings in a year after the tooling is paid for would be $70 per part times 12 times per year times 50 parts per month ($42,000 per year). Can this part be cost effectively produced as an aluminum die casting lighting fixture?
Aluminum Lighting Fixture Die Castings
The die casting part will require die cast tooling. This tooling will take about 10 weeks to be made and will cost about $28,000 to be made. This seems too expensive for some but if the annual total cost is calculated it will show that the tooling cost is justified. The part price in this case is $8 each part. A simple calculation will show the cost of the die castings with the die casting tooling will be better than the cheaper sand casting price.
Aluminum Die Castings
Part Price — $ 8
Annual Quantity — 600
Total parts cost — $ 4,800
Tooling cost — $28,000
Total product cost — $32,800
Aluminum Sand Castings
Part Price — $ 70
Annual Quantity — 600
Total parts cost — $42,000
Tooling cost — Paid for already
Total product cost — $42,000
The aluminum die casting option will cost about $9,000 less the first year and over $30,000 less each year afterwards. Die casting aluminum is a better option.

General Information about Die Casting Draft Angles
General Information about Die Casting Draft Angles. Draft Angle is the sloping required in manufacturing aluminum die casting products. Because it facilitates ejection, this feature is often highly considered by aluminum die casting manufacturing companies.
Die Casting Draft Angles apply to both the pattern and the castings. Pattern Draft Angle is the considerable degree of tilt on the surface of the pattern. It allows the ejection of the casting from its mold. Casting Draft Angle on the other hand is the draft angle on the casting itself. It is the actual sloping seen on the castings.
Although the computation of draft angles is frequently generalized, the interior and the exterior surface of the die cast wall are highly considered. The draft angle recommended for the interior wall is twice as much as the external surface to facilitate ejection when the aluminum alloy harden and shrink.
In some instances, most particularly in the production of precision metals used by electronics industries, draft angle considerable varies. It must be specified in the design in order to guarantee efficient and effective performance of electronic gadgets, appliances, furniture and lighting fixtures etc. which uses these materials in their manufacturing process.
Draft Angle is also considered in designing the parting line and determining the parting line tolerance. The parting line is the point where the two halves of the casting mold meet. In most cases this line defines the internal and external surfaces of die cast parts. Minor errors in die casting applications includes errors or faulty in parting line designs.
Tons of aluminum products worldwide are made efficient just because a simple feature like draft angle was never taken for granted.
