Aluminum Die Cast Tooling. Aluminum die casting is a metalworking process mainly used to create several small to medium sized parts. This process results in parts with the almost exact same dimensions, smooth surface finish and with incredibly high detail. …

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.

How Are Diecast Heating Plates Used?
How Are Diecast Heating Plates Used? Diecast heating plates are used to increase the temperature of certain objects, which are done for testing and other experimental purposes. Depending on the design and purpose of the heating plate, it can also be used to substitute other things such as grill rocks or electrical stoves. A typical heating plate for example has a large surface of about 300 x 300 mm and is founded on a platform that allows you to set up and adjust the heating capacity of the plate. You can adjust the heating capacity from 25% to 100% depending on how you want it. Other features that are found in heating plates include:
- Digital temperature display
- Easy-to-use electronic controls for adjustments
- Homogeneous distribution across the entire plate to prevent external factors from affecting the results, and of course,
- Safety features to prevent accidents such as burns due to accidental skin contact.
Normally heating plates are made with plastic moldings, particularly the area where the screen and the controls are found. But now diecast aluminum heating plates are being used because the alloy being used is more durable, it can last longer, the parts can be molded and replaced in case there are damages, and it is more cost-efficient.

Consumers Prefer Die Cast Parts
Consumers Prefer Die Cast Parts. Die cast consumer parts are now the popular choice among the general public, including households and businesses. First of all, the consumer parts produced through die casting are of better quality than those produced by stamping, forging, extrusion, mold casting, and other manufacturing processes.
Various companies today are contracting die casting companies to produce consumer parts that are to be used for modern industrial purposes. Examples of the die castings used by consumers today are found in cellular phones, computers, automobiles, industrial machines, and even in toys, plumbing components, and kitchen metal parts. Truth is, almost every important thing we use in our daily lives has die castings installed in them; we are just unaware of how these were manufactured and what processes were done to incorporate these die castings in them.
Majority of these are aluminum die castings. This is due to obvious reasons. First, aluminum is one of the most abundant metals on earth. Its supply is almost unlimited. Due to this high supply, aluminum is less expensive compared to other metals. Aluminum is also a very light metal, making the whole production process easier, faster and cheaper. Especially in the manufacture of cars, this light weight of aluminum contributes greatly to the ability of the car to get better fuel economy. Other advantages of aluminum include the fact that it is recyclable, malleable and corrosion-resistant. Given these benefits, it is no wonder why major manufacturing companies are now turning to aluminum as an alternative to other metals such as steel or iron.
