Die Casting Tooling 2020
Die Casting Tooling. Die casting is a modernization that makes it possible to mass production for manufacturers. It is the procedure of forcing molten metal under high pressure into reusable steel molds. These molds are otherwise dubbed dies. It creates multifaceted shapes with high degree of correctness and repeat-ability.
A die casting tooling is employed for high volume of production and is typically a class “A” complete die. It comes in a variety of sizes and shapes. It is frequently made from steel and often weighs several hundred pounds for a complete mold.
A die casting tooling is utilized to produce a part in a die casting machine. Surfeit aluminium from a die casting tooling is manufactured by a die casting trim, saving as much as 15% in the part price by speeding up the manufacture procedure.
Die casting dies, die casting molds and insert die are also known as die casting tooling. It comes either with single cavity or numerous cavities. If the cavity is soft, it can be damaged and wore off from erosion. It generally needs particular understanding on how to mold tooling for aluminium.
To expand its tooling life, die casting tooling needs heat treatment. Getting a prototype to test and produce a design is prudent because it’s reasonably priced and takes less time to construct. Nevertheless, once damaged, a prototype cannot be customized.
Die casting tooling is a requirement in the manufacturing industry. To get a longer life for the molds, be sure to obtain only from toolmakers that utilizes enough steel. The cost differs for trim dies and cavity inserts.

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.

Die Casting Process
Kinetic Die Casting Company uses the die casting process to make aluminum die castings and zinc die casting parts. The die casting process, simplified, is described as follows:
- Our customer provides us tooling (https://www.kineticdiecasting.com/tooling.html), a die, a mold or inserts that we use to make their parts. We can also produce the tooling for our customers.
- We put together the tooling and mount the tooling in our die casting machine. This takes a few hours.
- We fill a furnace with the proper die casting alloy metal (https://www.kineticdiecasting.com/Alloy_Data.pdf) to make the parts for our customer. The metal takes 4 hours to melt to the casting temperature.
- While the furnace is heating up we heat up the tooling to make the castings.
- When the tooling is hot and the furnace has melted the aluminum, we begin the die casting process.
- We spray the tooling with a release agent so the parts do not stick in the tooling.
- We close the tooling inside our die casting machine.
- The metal is ladled into a shot sleeve, a piston drives the metal into the tooling using great force.
- Our die casting machine opens, the ejector pins push the part out of the tooling
- We begin the process again by spraying the tooling.
- We repeat this process 200 times to 500 times in a 10 hour shift.
- When completed making raw castings, we trim the excess material called “flash”. We use a trim die in a trim press or we sand parts with a belt sander and file them by hand. Sometimes this takes longer than the casting process.
- At this point, some parts are put in boxes and shipped the same day. Other parts are machined. Some parts get painted or chemical coated. All parts are inspected prior to shipping to our customers.
This is a very simplified description of the die casting manufacturing process.
