Methods for making Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts
Methods for making Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts. Aluminum is considered one of the major materials used for speaker parts. It is less likely to rust like other metals and is light weight like plastic. It also has good thermal properties, being able to withstand heat and loud music.
Aluminum is also a recyclable. Like aluminum soda cans, aluminum speaker parts can be sent to recycling plants or junk yards to help ease the waste load of cities. And unlike others, aluminum has a high percentage of recycled use – most of it is turned back into usable aluminum. There is less than 20% that is turned into a sooth-like substance. This can still be re-used by mixing it into concrete.
Aluminum, as compared to other metals, is easier to form and mold. Unlike steel and other metals, aluminum does not need to be welded.
So, what are the Methods for making Aluminum Speaker Parts?
It is actually quite easy. You just pre-heat and melt pure aluminum or an aluminum alloy and through die casting, you inject the aluminum (using high pressures) into the created metal mold. This is through using cold chambers. You can even die cast pipes, tubes and holes into the aluminum speaker parts. Afterwards, you can just buff the aluminum part and ready it for shipping.

More Efficient Way of Producing Speaker Parts
More Efficient Way of Producing Speaker Parts. Advancement in technology has been continuously coming in the society. People have easier and faster means of doing everything as compared to the traditional ones. One of the advancements that occurred is the production of different industrial parts made from different metal alloys. There are also different ways of manufacturing these products like die casting and sand casting. With casting procedures, even the smallest part of equipment can be created with the finest details depending on what type of procedure is used. The common metal alloy used in these procedures is aluminum because it is durable and easy to mold. Manufacturing aluminum parts is also inexpensive as compared to other metals.
In the music industry, pressure die casting is also prevalent because the parts of the equipments are made of metal like that of speakers and amplifiers. Aluminum pressure die casting is perfect for producing speaker parts because these parts are small and the material to be used should be heat-resistant. Other casting procedures like sand casting cannot produce such detailed parts. Since amplifiers and speakers need precise parts, aluminum pressure die casting should be used. Besides, aluminum die casting is much inexpensive as compared to sand casting. The tools to be used are way cheaper and the procedure is much faster in aluminum die casting.

Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts vs Gravity Casting
Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Audio Speaker Parts vs Gravity Casting. Pressure die casting is a manufacturing process used to create aluminum brackets, parts, chassis, audio speakers and more. These metal parts can be seen almost anywhere and everywhere, making them integral in our day to day lives. Pressure die casting initially melts the aluminum metal. The molten metal is then injected into a mold under great pressure. Afterward, it is set aside to cool for a while. When the Mold is opened, it reveals the finished die casting. Because of this fast and easy process, thousands of parts can be made every day.
Gravity casting uses the similar manner as sand casting. It uses the force of gravity rather than high pressure to fill the mold with the molten aluminum metal. Gravity casting is most fitting for mass production and full mechanized casting. One advantage over gravity casting is that they usually give a better surface finish and mechanical properties, due to its slower cooling rates compared to pressure die casting.
Compared to gravity casting, pressure die casting requires less machining. Die castings can cast holes depending on how and where you want it. Die castings give closer and more accurate dimensions, plus it can be produced at a larger scale, with less labor costs per casting.

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.

Examples of Aluminum Heat Sinks Die Castings
Examples of Aluminum Heat Sinks Die Castings. Heat sinks are devices used to remove heat emitted from parts of electronic applications or appliances. Examples of these are your mobile devices, computers that run 24/7, audio amplifiers, and the like. Though heat sinks have already been made and used prior to the development of aluminum heatsinks, they didn’t last long plus they were more expensive and had limitations in terms of thermal conductivity. When manufacturers of heat sinks started producing them but made with aluminum, people discovered the benefits they got from them such as the increase in durability, cost efficiency, and better thermal conductivity.
Another significant benefit when using aluminum heat sink die castings is the ability to conduct electricity. This means that you don’t have to keep adding copper plating, the heat sinks are easily electrically grounded, and you can prevent further danger when dealing with large amounts of electricity.
There are many examples of aluminum heat sinks that are being used by people everyday. These people normally use electronic applications that emit large amounts of heat from their interior parts and components, so it is only safe to use these heat sinks to prevent breakdowns or malfunctions. Examples of these include CPU heat sinks, refrigeration, cooling electronic devices, and motherboard heat sinks. You will also find aluminum die casting heat sinks being used to cool down PCs, cell phones, and other equipment.
