Application Scope and Development Trends of Die Casting

The Influence of Strength and Material on Quality of Aluminum Alloy Die Castings

Die casting is one of the most advanced metal forming methods, which is an effective way to achieve less chips and no chips. It has a wide range of applications and is developing rapidly. At present, die-casting alloys are no longer limited to non-ferrous metals such as zinc, aluminum, magnesium, and copper, and are gradually expanding to be used for die-casting cast iron and steel castings

The size and weight of die-casting parts depend on the power of the die-casting machine. Due to the increasing power of the die-casting machine, the shape and size of the castings can range from a few millimeters to 1-2m; The weight can range from a few grams to tens of kilograms. Aluminum castings with a diameter of 2m and a weight of 50kg can be die cast abroad. Die castings are no longer limited to the automotive and instrumentation industries, but are gradually expanding to various other industrial sectors, such as agricultural machinery, machine tool industry, electronics industry, national defense industry, computer, medical equipment, clocks, cameras, and daily hardware. In terms of die-casting technology, new processes such as vacuum die-casting, oxygenated die-casting, precision and dense die-casting, and the application of soluble cores have emerged.
