Die Casting Part Pricing-How Die Casting Part Prices are Established in 2022

Die Casting Part Pricing – How to Die Casting Part Prices are Established.

Kinetic Die Casting Company has a specific pricing model that is similar and also different from our competitors. Here are a few issues to think about when asking for a die-casting part price.

  • Die Casting Part Size
  • Die Casting Part Weight
  • Die Casting Material Type
  • Inspection Requirements
  • Die Casting Part Quantity
  • Die Casting Part Tolerances
  • Die Casting Part Specifications
  • Die Casting Tooling Types
  • Additional Labor Needs
  • Die Casting Part Secondary Finishing
  • Other Fees

The die casting part size and weight effect the part price in a few ways, cycle times or parts per hour, the machine tonnage size required to produce the parts and the part material cost, which also relates to the die casting material type.

The inspection requirements can vary depending on if a (1) visual inspection, or a (2) dimensional inspection or a (3) penetration inspection or an (4) X-Ray inspection or a (5) pressure test inspection are required.

The part quantity has an effect because it will determine if some of the many “one time” or “minimum charge” fees are covered in the production lot.

Die casting part specifications and tolerances add additional labor to a simple casting through inspection and documentation.

The die casting tool can effect the part price by how many cavities are in the tool, how many slides are in the tool, whether additional labor can be removed by the tool, and also if a trim die is available. The mold type also has an effect in the set up time for tooling.

Many times additional labor are needed to complete the die casting part, like threading holes, which also adds to the part cost. Can we use high speed production machining or do we need to use CNC machines.

If there is a polish, ball burnish, bead blast, paint or anodize requirement, that will add to the part cost.

Other fees, some die casting companies charge a “Set Up Fees” or an “Environmental Fees” or an “Energy Surcharge Fees” or a packaging or pallet fee, we do not have any of these hidden fees.

    The Advantages of Aluminum Hardware Brackets over Plastic

    Advantages of Aluminum Hardware Brackets over Plastic:


    • Plastic is an insulator, while aluminum is electrically conductive. Plastic will need a special coating to achieve a similar result with aluminum (albeit inferior).
    • Plastic does not ground, thus it requires extra grounding metal straps. Aluminum, being a metal, is easily grounded.
    • Aluminum has a natural shield against RF and EMI, preventing radio frequency. Plastic does not block radio frequency.
    • Aluminum brackets are much stronger than plastic injection moldings.
    • Aluminum metal is stiff, while plastic injection moldings are too elastic for numerous applications.
    • Plastic molded parts do not do well for chrome plating.
    • Plastic can not obstruct electromagnetic emissions.
    • Plastic does not do well with many coatings, while aluminum brackets do better on the department.
    • Aluminum parts are stable, whereas plastic injection parts are not quite dimensionally stable.
    • Plastic molded parts do not do well in conditions of hot and humid temperatures. Aluminum hardware is more heat resistant.
    • One big problem with plastic is that they are not recyclable. Only less than 3% of the plastic will be recyclable. Nearly all metals, aluminum die castings in particular, are always readily recyclable.
    • Aluminum die castings are non-hazardous and pose no problems to the government.

    Aluminum Aircraft Parts in 2022

    Aircraft or better known as Airplanes are large, very large. They are large because they are designed to carry things, lots of things. Airplanes carry mail, gifts, shipments, food, packages, baggage, and people. Airplanes are the fastest transportation for “things” and people today. Airplanes are fast because they travel through the air. Because airplanes are big and travel through the air, airplane construction materials need to lightweight and strong. Aluminum is used for most airplane components because it is lightweight and strong. The overall airplane part weight is kept down so the airplane will be able to carry more “things”. Therefore, aluminum is used a lot.

    Die casting is the preferred manufacturing process for making Aluminum Aircraft Parts. The reason is that the aluminum die casting process has a lot of advantages over other high-volume aircraft part manufacturing processes.

      Aluminum Aircraft Parts Produced as Die Castings:

    1. Die Casting is less expensive because more than 500 or 1,000 parts can be produced each day.
    2. Die Casting hold tolerance typically to +/- 0.002″ after the die casting tool is approved.
    3. Aluminum weighs 1/3 by volume of a similar part in steel.
    4. Aluminum die casting parts are very strong.
    5. Die Castings are produced near “net shape”, reducing additional manufacturing costs.
    6. Die Casting Tooling reliably manufactures parts repeatably over several thousand parts.
    7. Aluminum die castings do not break down over time as other materials break down.
    8. Aluminum die castings have an aesthetically pleasing surface finish.
    9. Die Casting parts look good after paint or polish.

      Kinetic Die Casting Company makes many types of aircraft parts. We make:

    • Airplane distributor caps
    • Aircraft wheel cove locks
    • Cargo Plane bearing housing parts
    • Airplane piston heads
    • Many others….

    The two more common types of die casting aluminum used by Kinetic die Casting Company are A380 aluminum and A413 aluminum. There are reasons to use either metal.

    So here are a few of the details (http://www.kineticdiecasting.com/casting_aluminum.html):

    A380
    Availability – More
    Material cost – Less
    Flexibility – More
    Thermal Conductivity – Less
    Electrical Conductivity  – More
    Pounds/Inch – More
    Pressure Tight – Less
    Surface Polish – Less

     

    A413
    Availability – Less
    Material cost – More
    Flexibility – Less
    Thermal Conductivity – More
    Electrical Conductivity – More
    Pounds/Inch – Less
    Pressure Tight – More
