Multiple Cavity Tooling
When our customers buy die casting tooling, they have an option to buy single or multiple cavity tools. In die casting, we are limited in the number of parts we make in a die casting shot. “Shot” refers to a single event in the die casting production shot cycle. The die casting shot cycle is: Die Open, Spray, Die Close, Inject Metal, Open Die, Eject Part and Repeat (More in another article). A shot takes about a minute. With a single cavity tool, we make one part each shot, or one part a minute or 60 parts an hour. If our die casting tool has more than one cavity, we make the proportionate number of parts. A two cavity, multiple cavity die casting tool produces 120 parts an hour and four cavity die cast tooling produces 240 parts an hour.
The more parts we can produce in an hour, the lower the labor cost in the die casting part price. Part prices are lower with a multiple cavity tool.

500 Shots Daily
Kinetic Die Casting Company uses a process of making 500 to 1000 aluminum die casting parts every day. Last week, in my multiple cavity die casting tool article, I briefly described the die casting shot cycle as: Die Open, Spray, Die Close, Inject Metal, Open Die, Eject Part and Repeat. This takes about one minute each shot cycle.
- Here are the details of each Step of the die casting production cycle:
- Die Open – The hydraulic system opens the die casting machine platens. The die casting mold is attached to the die platens, opening the die wide so the two halves can be accessed.
- Spray – Molten metal will stick to the steel die if a release agent is not used to coat the tool. The cavities, the slides, the core pins and ejector pins are sprayed also to cool them down.
- Die Close – When the die has been sprayed the machine is closed with hydraulic pressure so the two die halves are closed and sealed together. Sometimes, high pressure nitrogen gas is used to speed the die closing.
- Inject Metal – The metal is poured into the shot sleeve and a piston drives the molten metal into the mold. Hydraulic pressure is used to push the metal into the mold. Higher pressures are applied to push out gasses that cause porosity. High Pressure Nitrogen Gas is used to accelerate the piston faster and to add more pressure to squeeze out gasses.
- Open Die – The die casting machine opens the platens
- Eject Part – The Die casting machines moves a movable platen to push against the ejector plate. The ejector plate pushes the ejector pins. The ejector pins push the part out of the cavity
- – Repeat
In a nutshell, This is the die casting shot cycle. Each shot cycle takes about a minute to complete. We make 500 parts a day with a single cavity die.

Plastic Parts For Military
There many advantages of aluminum military parts over plastic parts. Being in the military force is a life-threatening job. Together with this risk is the honor of saving one’s territory, which is one of the reasons why a number of men choose this as their career path. However, their success does not depend on their skills alone. The equipment to be used should also be considered. Look at these Night Vision Goggles made by Kinetic Die Casting Company. We made over 200,000 sets of these aluminum military parts for our customer.
To help the military in fulfilling their goal, they should know the advantages of aluminum military parts over plastic military parts. Why? Plastic military parts may be cheaper, but it cannot match the advantages given by aluminum military parts. Aluminum military parts can withstand prolong stocking periods. When not in battle, the equipment tend to be stored in the barracks. Unfortunately, some of these fade quickly in terms of quality and usability. It is because some parts are made of a special plastic which is not capable of keeping its condition over time. Aluminum does this, even if exposed to strong chemicals. Moreover, plastic parts are highly vulnerable to damage due to strong impacts. For instance, a rifle had to be dropped. The damage it can give to an aluminum part would not be that severe, but it would be very different for a plastic military part.
These are only a few of the many advantages of aluminum die casting military parts over the plastic parts.

Kinetic Die Cassting Company makes Aluminum Lighting Fixture Parts. Aluminum die casting is a lightweight, non-toxic, and non-magnetic metal. It is also resistant to corrosion and can be easily molded and formed into many different shapes. Additionally, there is plenty of aluminum to be had so issues regarding the availability of the metal are nil. Because of these properties, aluminum is one of the most ideal metals for the production of various goods, such as lighting fixtures.
Die casting aluminum lighting fixture parts can be found in various medical lighting products as well as in medical offices where there are hanging light fixtures made from aluminum. Other examples of aluminum lighting fixture parts are endcaps on light fixtures and housings for various kinds of light fixtures, such as parking garage lighting, street traffic lights, walk lights, and high temperature lights. Aluminum lighting fixture parts also come in the form of decorative lighting poles manufactured from rustproof aluminum that is given extra protection against rusting by a powder coat finish. Additionally, aluminum is utilized for light fixtures themselves, such as bullet light fixtures, wall sconce fixtures, and outdoor coach lights. Even though aluminum is lightweight, the metal is highly resilient against extreme weather conditions and seasonal changes. Additionally, the production of aluminum lighting fixture parts is generally cost-effective as aluminum is quite inexpensive.
