Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Lighting Parts vs Sand Casting
Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Lighting Parts vs Sand Casting. Aluminum sand casting tooling roughly costs from $500 – $7,500, depending on the size and complexity. Pressure die cast tooling on the other hand costs from $5,000 – $75,000, again depending on the size and complexity of the die cast parts. However, tooling can create from 100,000 parts to as much as 1,000,000 pressure die casting parts.
In sand casting, the molds or patterns are used to make sand molds. The preparation and bonding process of sand molds is the most critical step in the process. This technique is usually used for high volume production.
With die casting, the mold is usually made of metal like cast iron or steel. They are generally not destroyed but are made permanent. There are several types of die casting, the most widely used being high pressure die casting. 50% of light alloy casting production are made from high pressure die casting.
Sand casting and pressure die casting processes vary from some hundred to some thousand parts. The cost of tooling and machinery is required for aluminum sand casting that is not normally required in the die casting process due to its tighter tolerance of the pressure die cast process in making the aluminum 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:
- Aluminum can be stronger than steel
- 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.

The Advantages of Aluminum Handle Hardware Over Steel
The Advantages of Aluminum Handle Hardware Over Steel. There are many places and functions for handle hardware. You’ll find handles in doors, cabinets, drawers, kitchen cupboards, and the list goes on. The question here when picking out handle hardware is, “Which one has more advantages over the other, aluminum handle hardware or steel handle hardware?” According to manufacturers and experts in this industry, there are several materials that are normally used to make handle hardware: aluminum, steel, and brass to name a few. The most common and favorable among the many handle hardware materials is aluminum, and this article will explain why.
- Aluminum parts are lighter in weight as compared to steel parts. Nobody wants to exert too much effort just to pull a handle to open a door or drawer, so people go for aluminum handles.
- Another reason is because of the durability and strength of aluminum handle hardware. Aluminum handle hardware can be made into all kinds of shapes and sizes, so production is easier, faster, and long-lasting. Handles made from other materials are normally welded together, but despite that it is still not as strong as those made with aluminum.
- Lastly, aluminum is cheaper when it comes to production costs as compared to steel. Manufacturers are able to produce up to a thousand and more aluminum handle hardware in a day.

Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Speaker Parts vs Extrusions
Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts vs Extrusions. Audio Speakers and other sound-related components don’t live without going through maintenance and parts replacement. Eventually, after months or years of use, parts need to be replaced with newer ones to continue its lifespan. Many of today’s consumers would turn to die casting to be able to get parts instead of buying a new component every time a part of the system starts malfunctioning, and one of the processes used to create speaker parts is extrusions. Extrusion, if you look it up over the net, is basically a process used to create objects (in this case, parts) of a fixed cross-sectional body. The top advantages of using extrusions are being able to create complex cross-sections and being able to work with materials that are normally brittle and that can easily break.
But because of the limitations involved in extrusions when it comes to shaping and the time spent to produce the parts, manufacturers are now turning to pressure die casting using aluminum as the main alloy. As compared to extrusions, die casting with aluminum makes production faster, allows more net shape, and all the features of the part, from top to bottom, side to side, can be done in one operation alone.
