Aluminum Die Casting–Why Use It!

Aluminum Die Casting–Why Use It! Many materials can be used in various metalworking processes including in the popular method of die casting. The most preferred materials for die casting are non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, zinc, copper, lead, magnesium and tin-based alloys. Many manufacturers, nonetheless, favor aluminum die casting because of several advantages.

Manufacturers are able to parlay the metal’s beneficial characteristics by opting for aluminum die casting. For one, aluminum is light in weight but possesses good mechanical properties. Parts with thin walls and complex shapes can be produced at excellent quality and strength by using aluminum alloy. Even at high temperatures, the metal also retains its strength. Aluminum also offers good resistance to corrosion and provides high electrical and thermal conductivity needed in many parts of consumer and industrial products.

Owing to these basic properties, aluminum die casting can produce stronger and more durable components. The malleability of aluminum also allows the production of parts that could be applied with varying types of textures, resulting in fewer finishing touches needed for the end-products.

Aluminum die casting can likewise easily mass-produce parts already tailor-fit for assembly, complete with holes, bosses or studs. These features would contribute to less labor costs and a more efficient production line.

Not only does this system provide an expensive and prolonged process of making just a few outputs, welding also require a lot of hands to work, necessitating a huge amount of labor. With this limitation in the widespread need for lighting fixtures to be made in different dimensions and specific designs, the science of die casting has also incorporated the production of aluminum lighting fixtures.

KDC Closed Labor Day 2015

Kinetic Die Casting Company will be closed on Monday September 7, 2015 in observance of Labor Day.

Some fun facts from the US Department of Labor about Labor Day History:
labor day image

The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later, on September 5, 1883.

In 1884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday, as originally proposed, and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a “workingmen’s holiday” on that date. The idea spread with the growth of labor organizations, and in 1885 Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country.

Continental Eagle Spacer Ring 1Continental Eagle Spacer Ring 2

We produced many aluminum ring spacer parts made from aluminum die casting parts for Continental Eagle over the years since 2004.

Here is an excerpt from their website (coneagle.com): Continental Eagle Corporation, located in Prattville, Alabama U.S.A., manufactures and markets worldwide a premier line of cotton ginning, cotton processing and handling equipment. Continental Eagle has a complete network of sales and service facilities located throughout the United States cotton belt and in the cotton producing areas of the world.

Continental Eagle’s IMPCO division, based in Prattville, Alabama manufactures machinery for the oilseeds processing industry.

Sadly, it seems that Continental Eagle is no longer in business. We still have the die casting tooling that makes the aluminum die casting spacer rings if anyone picks up the business and needs parts. We are saddened at the loss of another American business. Please contact us if you have any details for Continental Eagle Company.
