Aluminum die castings: unsung heroes of modern machines
If there are unsung heroes in equipment manufacturing count aluminum die castings in. For despite their wide applications in various types of machines and equipment that make lives both easy and productive every day, these products are rarely seen. For the most part, aluminum die castings are hidden vital cogs that help make cars moving, computers humming, and home and building structures safe and fun places to work and live in.
Aluminum die castings are the product of tried and tested metalworking technology developed and improved over the years. Essentially, die casting involves injecting, through high pressure, molten aluminum or any other metal into specially designed molds or dies to form specific products of various shapes and sizes. Aluminum is most suitable for die casting because it is a malleable alloy with electrical conductivity, is strong, heat-absorbent and corrosion-resistant, and is an abundant material. Hence, aluminum could be a replacement material for steel as well as plastics in many applications for the manufacture of industrial and household equipment.
Another advantage going for aluminum die castings is that they can be easily mass-produced. This leads to economies of scale, making these products less expensive in the long haul. Both decorative and strengthening features could also be incorporated to the molds, further enhancing the cost-effective use of castings made from aluminum.
So today, when you see a car, a computer CPU, street or traffic lighting, sing some praises for aluminum die castings. Chances are great that die casting components, humble they may be within each functioning equipment, are delivering a vital role like any other material to keep harmony and order in modern living.
