Do you know the fundamental difference between die casting and other casting methods

　　The fundamental difference between die-casting and other casting methods is high pressure and high speed. The commonly used pressure for die-casting ranges from a few megapascals to tens of megapascals, sometimes reaching a maximum of over 200 megapascals? Do you know what the concept of over 200 megapascals is? You should know that the rice cooker we use at home is measured in kilopascals, so the strength and lethality of the parts produced by die-casting are higher. At the same time, die-casting is integrated molding, and the production efficiency is also very high. It can produce various complex thin-walled parts in large quantities!

　　Zinc alloy die-casting and aluminum alloy die-casting are commonly used in our die-casting production. Generally, the minimum wall thickness of zinc alloy die-casting can be between 0.5 millimeters (0.02 inches) and 1.5 millimeters (0.06 inches), while the minimum wall thickness of aluminum alloy die-casting is usually between 1 millimeter (0.04 inches) and 3 millimeters (0.12 inches). Of course, this also depends on the product structure of the die-casting, the equipment type and technical level of the die-casting plant, If we have been in the die-casting industry for 18 years and equipped with advanced equipment, the wall thickness of die-casting parts can also be evaluated and adjusted according to the product structure. Therefore, if you want to know the minimum wall thickness of your die-casting parts, please feel free to consult with us!
