Die Casting Process

Die-casting is a manufacturing process that involves injecting molten metal with low melting points such as zinc and aluminum into steel molds. 

Mold Preparation

The mold is cleaned and coated with a release agent to prevent sticking.

Making the Gating System

The gating system is the network of channels that allows the molten metal to flow into the mold cavity. It consists of a sprue, runner, gate, overflow and vent.

Die Casting Mold Holding

The mold halves are clamped together in a die casting machine that applies high pressure and controls the injection speed.

Injection of Molten Metal

The molten metal is forced into the mold cavity through the gating system. The injection pressure and speed depend on the type of metal, mold design and casting size.

Solidification

The molten metal solidifies in the mold cavity as it cools down. The solidification time depends on the metal composition, temperature and thickness of the casting.

Removing the Castings

After solidification, the mold halves are opened and the castings are ejected by pins or air jets. The castings may have excess metal attached to them from the gating system, which can be trimmed off later.

Our Die Casting Services

CCS provides many types of professional die-casting services to meet the different needs of our customers.

Hot Chamber Die-Casting

We specialize in hot chamber die-casting services, including melting the metal or alloy in a furnace and then injecting it into the mold cavity using a piston. This process is commonly used for materials with low melting points such as zinc and magnesium.

Cold Chamber Die-Casting

Cold chamber die-casting servicesare also provided in CCS, which involve melting the metal or alloy in a separate furnace and then transferring it to the injection chamber using a ladle or automatic pouring system. This process is commonly used for materials with high melting points such as aluminum.

Low Pressure Die-Casting

CCS is expert in low-pressure die-casting services, which involve pouring the molten metal or alloy into a sealed furnace under low pressure, and then injecting it into the mold cavity. This process is used to reduce turbulence and gas porosity, resulting in high-quality parts with fewer defects.

Vacuum Die-Casting

CCS may provide vacuum die-casting services, which involve creating a vacuum inside the mold cavity before injecting the metal or alloy. This process is used to reduce gas porosity in the final product, resulting in higher-quality parts.

Metal Die Casting Materials

Die casting is a manufacturing process that can be used to produce parts from a variety of metal alloys.

Aluminum

Aluminum is one of the most common die casting metals. It is a lightweight and versatile material that can be easily cast into complex shapes. It is widely used in the automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics industries.

Zinc

Zinc is another major category of die casting metals.It is a low-cost and easy-to-cast material that is commonly used for small to medium-sized parts in the automotive, electronics, and construction industries.

Magnesium

Magnesiumis another popular die casting material. It is a lightweight and strong material that is commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries, particularly for parts that require high strength and low weight.

Copper

Copper is a high-conductivity material that is commonly used for electrical and thermal components in the automotive and electronics industries.

Brass

Brass is a durable and corrosion-resistant material that is commonly used for decorative components and plumbing fixtures.

Lead and Tin Alloys

Lead and tin alloys are low-melting-point materials that are commonly used for plumbing and other low-stress applications.

Surface Treatment

Supported Die Cast Surface Treatments

After the die casting process, the surface of the metal parts may require additional finishing or surface treatments to improve their appearance, durability, or performance.

Polishing is a surface finishing process that involves removing surface imperfections and roughness to create a smooth and shiny surface. It can improve the appearance of the die-cast parts and make them more aesthetically pleasing.

Powder coating is a process that applies a layer of dry powder to the parts’ surface and then bakes them to create a durable and attractive coating. It can improve the durability and corrosion resistance of the die-cast parts.

Plating means coating the surface of the parts with a thin layer of metal, such as chrome, nickel, or zinc. It can improve the die-cast parts’ appearance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance.

Anodizing is an electrochemical process that creates a protective oxide layer on the surface of aluminum parts. It can improve the corrosion resistance and surface hardness of the die-cast parts.

Painting is a layer of paint or coating to the surface of the parts to improve their appearance and protect them from corrosion.

Sandblasting is a surface finish process that involves blasting the surface of the parts with abrasive materials, such as sand or glass beads, to remove surface imperfections and create a uniform finish.

Heat treatment involves heating and cooling the die-cast parts to improve their hardness, strength, toughness, or ductility. It can also relieve internal stresses and improve dimensional stability. Some examples of heat treatment are annealing, quenching, tempering, and aging.

Service Flow

CCS Die Casting Service Flow
