Die Casting

 

Start Rapid Limited is a leading die casting service provider in Asia. Our engineers, technicians and quality control expert team work together to ensure that your products are completed on time. As a first-class die casting supplier in China, we focus on new die casting technology to produce complex parts with excellent precision dimensions and smooth surface castings.


We use metals (including zinc, copper, brass, aluminum, magnesium, lead, tin, lead tin alloy, stainless steel, carbon steel, tool steel and cobalt) to cast parts and manufacture high-precision die castings for customers in various industries.


 

What is die casting?

 

Die casting is a metal casting process, which is characterized by applying high pressure to molten metal by using the inner cavity of the mold. The mold is usually made of alloy with higher strength. This process is somewhat similar to injection molding. Most die castings are iron free, such as zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, tin and lead tin alloys and their alloys. Casting include cold chamber die casting machine and hot chamber die casting machine.


The cost of casting equipment and molds is high, so the die casting process is generally only used for mass production of a large number of products. Therefore, die casting is one of the most widely used casting processes. Compared with other casting technologies, the surface of die casting is more flat and has higher dimensional consistency.



Characteristics of various die casting materials

 

Zinc: the most easily die-casting metal, it is very economical to manufacture small parts, easy to coat, high compressive strength and plasticity, and long casting life.

Aluminum: light weight, complex manufacturing and thin-wall casting with high dimensional stability, strong corrosion resistance, good mechanical performance, high thermal conductivity and conductivity, and high strength at high temperature.

Magnesium: easy to machine, high strength to weight ratio, the lightest of commonly used die-casting metals.

Copper: it has high hardness and strong corrosion resistance. It has the best mechanical properties among the commonly used die-casting metals, with abrasion resistance and strength close to that of steel.

Lead and tin: high density, high dimensional accuracy, can be used as special anti-corrosion parts. For public health reasons, this alloy cannot be used as food processing and storage equipment. The alloy of lead, tin and antimony (sometimes containing a little copper) can be used to make manual type and hot stamping in letterpress printing.
