Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Military Parts vs Sand Casting
Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Military Parts vs Sand Casting. The military is an important part of any nation. State of the art technology gives a country a heads up against other possibly invading or threatening army. And with the invention of weapons of mass destruction, powerful nations keep outdoing each other when it comes to military technology.
Mostly, military equipment and weapons are made of sturdy metal. Precision is important, that is why the technology of making military parts is also important.
For aluminum parts, cold chamber pressurized die casting is used. In Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Military Parts vs Sand Casting, surely die casting is the better option. Sand casting is one of the oldest ways of molding heated metal. While this is still a reliable method, its products are not as good as die casting. First, the surface is not as polished. The sizes and parts are also not as accurate as planned. The sand makes the military parts rough in surface. It will need a lot of other processes to make it polished.
With die casting, aluminum parts are sure to be precise in size and parts. Complicated designs are complete, with every crevice and tiny part intact. Sizes will be 99% accurate. This is very important for military parts.

Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Military Parts vs Extrusions
Pressure Die Casting Aluminum Military Parts vs Extrusions. Die casting is a process wherein molten aluminum is injected into a mold with great pressure. Afterwards, they are then set to water cool. When they are opened, they are then ejected. Aluminum military parts are created through this simple and inexpensive manufacturing process. As compared to other processes like sand casting, gravity casting, forging, extrusion, plastic injection moldings and stamping, die casting is inarguably the most efficient process for molding aluminum military parts.
Pressure die casting parts are more recyclable as opposed to forgings and extrusions. Aluminum die casting is efficient and economical when it comes to maintenance, refurbishing, remanufacturing, and repair for extending its life. It is non toxic and practical, and can readily be used again and again.
Pressure die casting is produced faster compared to extrusions. It has more net shape, which means that more features, depressions and angles can be placed in one operation. You can create more complex shapes, have thinner sheets, and more accurate dimensions with high pressure die casting for aluminum military parts. Holes can be cast in place rather than machining them later, adding to a higher production cost. There will be fewer waste products in pressure die casting aluminum military parts as opposed to extrusions.

Why Should You Use Aluminum Military Parts?
Why Should You Use Aluminum Military Parts? Many of the government’s military equipment and weapons are manufactured and made with aluminum parts or die casting parts. There are many advantages when using aluminum to create military parts, and in this article, the most common advantages will be enumerated and explained.
- When forging the military parts using aluminum, the manufacturers are able to produce more complex parts with thinner walls and sections, low finishing costs, and have coring that is normally not feasible in forging. This means that one is able to produce parts that are more difficult than their predecessors but are more tolerable, durable, and of course less costly.
- Aluminum is a more durable, stronger, and more dimensionally stable alloy to use than when using plastic moldings to create military parts. This is because aluminum parts are able to prevent radio frequency, electromagnetic emissions, and other possible effects that could damage the parts. So if you want your military equipment to remain stable and strong despite constant use, this is the kind of alloy and the kind of molding to be used.
- Normally extrusions are used to produce the parts and to give it shape, but with aluminum die casting, the parts are produced faster in terms of speed and with more net shape than usual.

Customer Multiplied Total Sales 5x
About ten years ago, two men named “Brian” and “Ron” working for a machining company in Orange County, California contacted Kinetic Die Casting Company to quote a “Project” for a simple die casting tool to produce from 5,000 to 23,000 sets of parts.
Each set would make up a “Night Vision Goggle Device”.These sets consisted of seven (7) separate parts; the machining company would machine and assemble.
Brian needed these parts delivered very fast. The cost of the tooling needed to be inexpensive in order to be competitive.
We decided to make a “unit die tool” because of the low quantity potential and chose a good toolmaker in the Los Angeles area to make the tool. We opted to trim the parts with a simple “push through trim die” and to hand finish the parts. In order to make the tooling, we used 3D files from their Mastercam to produce IGES files. We added the shrinkage and draft necessary in order for the die casting tool to function properly.
The project went very well. In fact, Brian won additional contracts to produce more Night Vision Goggles. For a few years we were producing up to 5,000 sets or 35,000 parts every week. For three years straight this company was our top customer company and for five years a very good customer indeed.
At the project conclusion Kinetic Die Casting Company had produced over 400,000 sets of parts or 2,800,000 parts from that simple die casting tool for our good customer. This was a huge success for our customer because they grew in sales over 5x in those five years.
