The difference between aluminum die casting alloy and zinc die casting alloy

Aluminum die casting alloy and zinc die casting alloy have the following differences:

1. Material characteristics: aluminum die casting alloy has good toughness, corrosion resistance and strength, suitable for subsequent processing and surface treatment; and zinc die casting alloy has good liquidity and thin wall casting properties, making it very suitable for high precision small parts.
2. Structural morphology: Aluminum die-cast alloys have high density and welding properties, they can be used to manufacture large parts, such as automobile engine blocks and motorcycle frames; and zinc die-cast alloy is famous for its compact lattice structure, as a highly ductile alternative materials, such as hardware fittings, lamps and sockets.
3. Weight: Aluminum alloy is a relatively light metal and can be used to reduce parts and devices; zinc alloy, although heavier than aluminum, is still lighter than many other alloy materials.
4. Cost: aluminum alloy material is relatively expensive, high manufacturing cost, need more processing skills and upfront cost expenditure; while zinc alloy material prices are relatively cheap, low manufacturing cost, its production capacity and easy recovery is more prominent.

To sum up, aluminum die cast alloy and zinc die cast alloy have different characteristics and advantages, so appropriate materials should be selected according to the specific application requirements.
