Aluminum Housing for Portable Devices in 2023
Aluminum Housing for Portable Devices. Portable devices, unlike their bigger counterparts, trade strength for portability. This trade-off is necessary to make the devices portable. Thinner and less dense materials are used to reduce the overall weight of the device. This can be seen in many delicate portable devices which break easily when handled incorrectly. However, there is a method that can be used to protect these devices while still maintaining their portability. This is done through the use of aluminum housings.
An aluminum housing is an enclosure that is designed to protect a device from physical trauma. The housing does this in both its interior and exterior. For exterior protection, the aluminum housing uses its shell as a shock absorber to lessen the impact felt by the device. For interior protection, the device is held in place by screws to prevent the device from moving around while inside the housing. In terms of aesthetics, the aluminum housing has a very plain, straightforward look which may be accented with ridges depending on the manufacturer. They come in a multitude of rich colors which add elegance to the aluminum housing.
Aluminum housings can be purchased in several stores including those that sell devices themselves. These stores however only sell housings that fit the devices they sell. The housings being sold all have predetermined specifications so that they can fit devices from multiple manufacturers. If an individual finds that his device is not compatible with any housing, he may contact aluminum manufacturing plants to have them create a custom housing for his device.

Aluminum Die Casting Parts Draft Angle-Draft Angle in Die Castings in 2023
Aluminum Die Casting Parts Draft Angle – Draft Angle in Die Castings. When someone asks me “what is draft angle in a box?” or “why do I need a draft angle on my aluminum die casting box part?” The technical answer is, all aluminum die castings require a draft angle on the walls of die cast box parts perpendicular to the parting plane or parallel to the slide interfaces. Since I have selling die cast parts for over 20 years, I find simple answers and provide simple calculations for my customers. What does that mean to the typical engineer (any engineer other than tooling or mechanical) or professional buyer?
I try to give examples that most people can relate to, because most people do not have a need to concern themselves with how things are made, only what is made, and will it be what they need. I ask, “Have you ever noticed on a cupcake the bottom diameter is smaller that the top diameter?” or “Have you noticed that a cake pan has sides that slope in toward the middle of the pan?” That would be an extreme example of a draft angle. Aluminum die castings would stick inside the die casting tool, molds, or die casting die if there was not enough draft angle in the tool and part. The typical draft angle for an aluminum die casting part is two degrees per side. The calculation for that is simple if a person is familiar with die casting production part design, but is not familiar to most people.
Picture an enclosure (or Aluminum Box) sitting on a table with the open side up. The aluminum box is 2″ deep inside with the height and width 4″ each way on outside. The walls of the box are 0.10″ thick. Due to the wall thickness, a few things are evident to a part designer concerning this simple box:
- The overall height of the box is 2.10″ tall.
- The interior of the box at the top of the opening is 3.80″ x 3.80″.
A 2 degree draft angle will change the dimensions in the following on the interior and exterior and should be considered if something needs to fit inside the box or outside the box:
- The top inside dimension of the box will be 3.80″ and the bottom inside will be 3.664″
- The top outside dimension of the box will be 4.00″ and the bottom outside will be 3.864″
If the box was designed for the interior of 4″ x 4″ at the bottom: box:
- The top inside box dimension needs to be 4.136″
- The outside top box dimension will be 4.336″.

Processing of Die Casting used for Airplane Parts in 2023
Processing of Die Castings used for Airplane Parts. Die Castings used for airplane parts are increasingly demanded for the aircraft industry. This type of constructions need light weight for mobility. Moreover, it requires durability and resistances to several stresses while flying. Among metals, aluminum is processed to serve as frames or skeleton of the aircraft.
In the process of die casting, molten metal is quickly forced into a mold cavity, which is formed by two opposing dies. Very high pressures are maintained until the metal solidifies. As for aircrafts, the strength of aluminum is significantly increased by high pressure casting. It creates yield of 69%. Aluminum die castings used for airplane parts are strong against torsion and expansion stresses. These are important considerations since a flying aircraft is subjected to several forces.
In this machining process, there is always an associated imperfection called porosity. This is the amount of gas that combines with the solidifying metal, as it cools in the mold. Porosity is characterized by the size and number of air bubbles inside the finished product. There are three levels of porosity. The second and third levels are unacceptable when it comes to machining airplane parts. This is to guarantee safety of the passengers. Advanced technology in treating aluminum is applied to minimize the porosity of the frames.
Die castings used for airplane parts are usually made of different aluminum grades. For example, Al 7075 is commonly used for making frames because of its toughness. Al 5052 can be die casted into billets, planes, coils, tubes and bars.

How are Aluminum Military Parts Used in 2023?
How Are Aluminum Military Parts Used? Aluminum is an especially useful material for the military as there are countless military vehicles and equipment that are made from aluminum or with aluminum parts. The history of aluminum military parts can be traced back to 1892 when the French used aluminum for torpedo boats. In 1896, the United States Army used aluminum canteens and aluminum picket and tent pins. Sometime during the 1890s, the US Navy acquired several wide aluminum sheets to construct a large assembly (perhaps a ship superstructure). Aluminum also played a crucial role for Germany during the First World War as this was the material that Germany decided to use for their army tanks when iron and steel became scarce. During the Second World War, aluminum military parts were used for walkie-talkies, fuel drums for air transport, bridges and pontoons, searchlights, and aircraft landing mats. Presently, the military uses aluminum for its armor, vehicles, and missiles. Aluminum is the material of choice for military parts because it meets the military’s requirements for materials to be used for vehicles, weapons, and armor. Aluminum has the ability to improve protection, is light and mobile without compromising protection, is easy to weld yet is strong, and has the ability to resist corrosion under extreme weather conditions, and all these are factors that are taken into consideration when military equipment is manufactured.
