Die casting is a versatile process for producing engineered metal
parts by forcing molten metal under high pressure into reusable
steel molds. These molds, called dies, can be designed to produce
complex shapes with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability.
Parts can be sharply defined, with smooth or textured surfaces, and
are suitable for a wide variety of attractive and serviceable
finishes. Die castings are among the highest volume, mass-produced items
manufactured by the metalworking industry, and they can be found in
thousands of consumer, commercial and industrial products. Die cast
parts are important components of products ranging from automobiles
to toys. Parts can be as simple as a sink faucet or as complex as a
connector housing. The main die casting alloys are: zinc, aluminium, magnesium,
copper, lead, and tin. Specific dies casting alloys include: ZAMAK,
zinc aluminium, AA 380, AA 384, AA 386, AA 390, and AZ91D
magnesium. Custom Mold Making China Limited also has great mold design and
engineering capabilities in die casting.
