How to Use Aluminum Aircraft Parts?
How to Use Aluminum Aircraft parts. The popular aircraft airframe has been the most challenging function for aluminum alloys; to account the progress of the high strength alloys is as well to account the progress of airframes. Duralumin is the first high strength, high temperature treatable aluminum alloy and was utilized originally for the structure of stiff airships. Duralumin was actually an aluminum-copper-magnesium alloy. It was initiated in the country of Germany and expanded in the United States of America as alloy 17S-T. It was employed first and foremost as a sheet and plate.
Throughout the 20th century, aluminum turned out to be an important metal in aircraft. The cylinder mass of the engine that controlled the plane of the famous Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk in 1903 was a one piece die casting in an aluminum alloy consisting of 8% copper. The aluminum propeller blades emerged as early as 1907 and aluminum seats, covers, cast brackets, cowlings, and comparable parts were regular by the start of the World War I.
In the year 1916, L. Brequet created a scouting bomber that identified the primary utilization of aluminum in the functioning configuration of a plane. By the end of the war, Germany and the Allies used aluminum alloys intended for the constructional scaffolding of fuselage and section assemblies.

Methods for Making Aluminum Hardware
Methods for Making Aluminum Hardware. Hardware brackets are produced and used in many industries today, which is why it is a very important component that should be made and processed properly and correctly. Aluminum brackets are made as parts for lighting fixtures, automobiles, and even in construction because its main purpose is to keep all the parts stable, steady, and as much as possible, long lasting. Before, manufacturers would use steel to make these hardware brackets and would have to weld the pieces together. But these welded pieces become weak overtime, which makes it expensive, time-consuming, and you’d have to exert a lot of effort just to maintain it.
Therefore, this is why many manufacturers now see the advantages they get when they use aluminum die castings to make their hardware brackets. Die casting involves a process of forcing molten metal under high pressure to be able to produce complex yet more tolerable molds to create parts and housings for different things such as military weapons and die casting lighting fixtures. When making hardware brackets, manufacturers would create them using the process of aluminum die casting, afterwards shaping it easily into parts that they know would make it sturdier, more long-lasting, and of course cost-efficient as compared to steel.

Why Aluminum Boxes?
Why 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.
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.

Pressure Die Casting vs. Sand Casting
Pressure Die Casting vs. Sand Casting. At lower quantities sand casting is cheaper. Product quantities of over 1000 parts over a few years will cost less as a die casting. Aluminum sand cast tooling roughly costs from $500 – $7,500, depending on the size and complexity. Parts from sand casting cost $10 to $30 each. For 1000 parts the total cost is $37,500. 10,000 parts would cost over $300,000. Pressure die casting tooling on the other hand costs from $5,000 – $25,000, again depending on the size and complexity of the die cast parts. The cost for parts is between $2 to $5 each. 1000 parts would cost $30,000. A savings of $7,500. For 10,000 parts the cost would be $50,000, much less than $300,000 for sand casting parts. Die Casting Tooling can create from 100,000 parts to as much as 1,000,000 pressure die casting aluminum lighting parts.

Mothers Day 2016 and Candy
In six days – Sunday, May 8th is Mothers Day 2016.
Why do we celebrate Mothers Day? For “the person who has done more for you than anyone in the world” – Anna Jarvis. The US holiday of Mother’s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at Saint Andrew’s Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Saint Andrew’s Methodist Church has an International Mother’s Day Shrine now to remember. Her campaign to make “Mother’s Day” a recognized holiday in the United States began in 1905, the year her mother, Ann Reeves Jarvis, died. The mother, Ann Jarvis, had been a peace activist who cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the American Civil War. Ann created Mother’s Day Work Clubs to address public health issues. Anna Jarvis wanted to honor her mother by continuing the work she started and to set aside a day to honor all mothers.
Traditional gifts to Mothers include: flowers, candy, a dinner at a nice restaurant or a spa treatment. Whatever you decide to do for your mother, remember to do something.
