Why People Use Aluminum Die Castings. Die casting is a powerful manufacturing process which involves the production of geometrically complex parts made from reusable molds, which is called die. The process of die casting involves the use of metal, a hot furnace, casting machinery and several pieces of die. The metal used, typically a non-ferrous type of alloys such as zinc or aluminum, is melted in the furnace and then injected to the casting machine. There are actually types of machines used in this process, there is the hot chamber die casting machine, used in zinc, and low melting temperature metals and there is the cold chamber machine which is used in aluminum and with high melting temperature type of metals. Both machines have the ability to rapidly cool and solidify the final part of the metal, which is called the casting.

People utilize aluminum in die casting because of its properties. Aluminum is lightweight and has powerful dimensional stability and changeability. This means that the metal can be used in order to create complex shapes and thin sheets of walls. Aluminum also has a good corrosion value and strong mechanical properties. Along the lines of its strength, aluminum also has high electrical and thermal conductivity, making it effective in various electronic projects. This metal can also be used and mixed with other types of metal in order to create stronger types of alloy for other types of projects. Even though aluminum is exposed to electricity and high temperatures, it still retains strength and that is why people utilize aluminum in die casting.
