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.

The Uses of Aluminum Lighting Fixtures
The Uses of Aluminum Lighting Fixtures. Aluminum lighting fixture parts are electrical devices mainly used for creating artificial light and illumination for homes and buildings. They are used either for indoor or outdoor lighting fixtures. Before the invention of aluminum die casting, lighting fixtures are created through welding techniques, making the system expensive and time consuming. Now, the science of aluminum die casting makes the process easier and a whole lot faster.
Usually, Aluminum lighting fixture parts consist of: a light source (lamp), a light reflector, an aperture (with or without lens), an outer shell or housing for alignment and protection, an electric ballast and connection to a power source. They are often used at the automotive lighting industry, marine lighting, medical lighting and aerospace lighting.
Furthermore, Aluminum lighting fixture parts are lightweight, durable and long lasting, making them ideal for several uses. They are often used to strengthen construction both on the inside and outside many establishments. They allow easier construction for different lighting techniques. This makes them very versatile, and can be used for many purposes: medical offices, parking garage lighting, bullet lights, street traffic lights, walk lights, outdoor coach light fixtures and high temperature light fixtures. They are also available in a wide array of shapes and sizes, ensuring better output and production of different lighting systems.

Efficiently Manufactured Aluminum Lighting Fixtures
Efficiently Manufactured Aluminum Lighting Fixtures. Aluminum Lighting Fixtures are used in buildings, homes, tunnels and other man made structures that would eventually need artificial lighting because the sun’s rays doesn’t reach them. It is an integral part of any man made building because people rely mainly on their eyes to navigate and accomplish tasks, without lighting they wouldn’t be able to work or get to where they need to. Aluminum Lighting Fixtures are also used in outdoor lighting as well. This means that they will be exposed to sun, rain and other elements which can damage them. They use aluminum so that it can last longer.
Furthermore, Aluminum is one of the most durable and strongest materials that are used today. It is more durable, if not just as durable as steel, but at the same time it is cheaper as well. This metal can be mined all over the world which makes it very accessible. Also, aluminum is just a third in weight compared to steel which makes it easier to work with. In turning the metal into the finished product, nothing is better than using aluminum die casting.
Die casting is a manufacturing process which is similar to permanent mold casting. The first step is the same wherein the material used is melted into liquid form. The difference is that in die casting, the liquid is injected into high pressure molds. They will then be allowed to cool and solidify and the result is that die casted Aluminum Lighting Fixtures are better accuracy in dimensions, smoother surface and much more uniform compared to permanent mold casting.

All You Need to Know about Aluminum Lighting Fixtures!
All You Need to Know about Aluminum Lighting Fixtures! Prior to the invention of aluminum die casting, most lighting fixtures have been exposed to welding techniques so as to produce the essential parts to this type of electrical component. 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.
Aluminum lighting fixtures, as with all other products of aluminum die casting, are made with net shape. In the process of making aluminum lighting fixtures, die caster do not need to perform heavy welding, and can simply mold dies to produce the best lighting fixture in accordance to the requests of their clients. One of the best things about lighting fixtures made from aluminum is that it upholds thermal properties, thereby making it easier for a lot of household equipments and electronic gadgets to diffuse heat. Shipping costs wouldn’t also be a problem for most die casting clients as the material used is guaranteed to be lightweight. Most of the lighting fixtures before used to be made with plastic, however are found not to last long when compared to the longevity of those made from aluminum. The electrically conductive components of these fixtures also compliment the main functions of the outputs made from aluminum die casting.

Blue Light Special on Airport Lights
How Kinetic Die Casting Company helped a Airport Lighting Parts Manufacturer. To get help for your company, use this webpage: Prices for Die Casting Parts. George had an idea on how he could develop a better airport runway lighting product. In the 1990s, Kinetic Die Casting Company received a fax from a company called Airport Lighting Company. At Airport Lighting Company, George, makes the lighting products of many of the airports in America. One of his biggest product lines is the blue light on the side of runways. The product in use is a round steel plate that is machined with mounting holes that are drilled and counter bored. The center was a larger hole that is then drilled and threaded for an arm that stands about a foot tall holding a lamp light fixture with a blue light bulb. These steel round plates line the side of runways for airplanes.
George at Airport Lighting Company has a problem regarding his blue lamp runway light fixtures. Steel rusts. The steel plates he uses for the runway lights rust in bad weather, which causes the plate to collapse if a plane runs over the plate by accident. Aluminum die casting does not rust. Will an aluminum die casting plate be strong enough to hold the weight of an airplane?
George contacted Kinetic Die Casting Company with the question, how strong is aluminum die casting? Our engineer, Dante, created a solidworks model of an aluminum plate with strengthening ribs and gussets. We tested the model using software to test the strength. We sent George the test results and he was ecstatic. He commissioned us to build his tool and has purchased thousands of the aluminum plates. George created his own Blue Light Special on Airport Runway Lights.
Look out of the airplane window the next time you fly, those blue lights may be sitting on an aluminum plate that just may have been made by Kinetic Die Casting Company.
