Renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, creep resistance, and thermal conductivity, magnesium alloys find applications in the aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries.
This process ensures the production of intricate and durable parts with precision, making it a preferred choice for applications where lightweight materials and structural integrity are crucial.
Beyond aluminum and magnesium, zinc alloy die casting is a significant player in metal die casting. This process involves injecting molten zinc into molds, producing durable components with high precision.
Known for its cost-effectiveness, zinc die casting finds applications in the automotive, electronics, and consumer goods industries.
The versatility of metal die casting extends to various alloys, allowing us to choose materials that meet specific performance requirements, making it a vital technique for producing diverse, intricate parts across multiple sectors.
Material Used In Die Casting
Metal die casting normally utilizes a large number of materials, each offering unique physical and mechanical properties to enable itself in almost every conceivable application. Our commonly used materials include:
- Aluminum alloys are the most common and widely used and sometimes are followed by silicon and copper. Lightweight alloys offer a perfect amount of corrosion resistance, and casting ease, and possess excellent mechanical and physical properties, as well as dimensional stability, which are preferred for die casting.
- Zinc alloys may be considered slightly below from the majority of aluminum alloys. Ductility is high and impact strength is excellent, making these alloys suitable for a wide range of products. Zinc alloys can be cast with thin walls and excellent surface smoothness making preparation for plating and painting relatively easy.
- Magnesium offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio, ideal for lightweight components. Corrosion resistance is achieved by enforcing very strict limits on three metallic impurities—iron, copper and nickel.
- Brass combines copper's conductivity with zinc's machinability, suitable for decorative applications.
- Copper known for its high thermal and electrical conductivity, often used in electrical components.
- Lead-based alloys, often mixed with antimony, are used in certain applications that require specific properties, such as low melting points.
- Tin is not commonly used alone in die casting due to its low melting point. However, it is often alloyed with other metals to create solders, which are used for joining components in electronics and other industries.
Quality Control For Die Casting Alloy Parts
We implement a comprehensive quality control system that helps guarantee that die-casting alloy parts meet the highest industry standards, function as intended, and have consistent quality throughout production.
- Rigorous testing of the alloy material for composition, purity, and conformity to specifications.
- Regular assessment and maintenance of dies to ensure accurate and consistent casting.
- Precise measurement of the finished parts to ensure they meet specified tolerances.
- Evaluation of the surface quality and appearance of the cast parts.
- Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Techniques such as X-ray or ultrasonic testing to identify internal defects without damaging the part.

Die Casting FAQS
Common die casting processes include High-Pressure Die Casting (HPDC), Low-Pressure Die Casting (LPDC), Vacuum Die Casting, Hot Chamber Die Casting, Cold Chamber Die Casting Process, Thixomolding, Squeeze Casting, and Centrifugal Casting. These versatile methods cater to diverse alloy properties and contribute to efficient, precision component manufacturing.
Aluminum die-casting alloys exhibit exceptional characteristics, making them a preferred choice. They operate effectively in high temperatures, boast exceptional corrosion resistance, and are lightweight with high strength and hardness.
Featuring a fine strength-to-weight ratio, EMI/RFI shielding properties, good finishing characteristics, high electrical conductivity, full recyclability, and environmental friendliness, aluminum die-casting alloys stand out for diverse applications.
Defining the process cost of die casting alloys involves considering essential factors in overall production costs. The alloys cost is depended on weight.
For hot-chamber casting require smaller machines with rapid production rates are suitable, while cold-chamber machines are used for larger castings.
Material costs, die maintenance, and replacement expenses vary, with zinc alloys having lower costs due to their non-corrosive nature. Aluminum alloys incur higher costs due to hardness and temperature properties.
Precision magnesium, zinc, and ZA alloys can reduce or eliminate the need for additional surface finishing tasks.
Ultra-small die casting often favors some aluminum and zinc alloys, benefiting from specialized, highly automated machines for cost-effective production.
The silicon content in aluminum die casting alloys, reaching up to 11.7%, is exemplified in commonly used alloys like AlSi12.
This inclusion offers advantages such as enhanced fluidity, reduced solidification shrinkage, improved pressure tightness, decreased hot shortness, increased modulus of elasticity, lower specific gravity, reduced thermal expansion, and improved corrosion resistance.
Elevating silicon content beyond 11.7% to around 16.5% enhances fluidity and abrasion resistance due to the presence of primary silicon in the alloy, positively impacting the die casting process parameters and overall castability.
Most common aluminum die casting alloys, including those used in die casting, do not typically undergo heat treatment. Low temperature aging treatments may be employed for stress relief or dimensional stability.
T2 or T5 tempering results in properties similar to a full T6 temper. While heat-treatable alloys like AA365 are available, die casting is generally not gas, arc welded, or brazed.
The impact strength and dent resistance of Die Casting alloys are crucial factors in determining the material’s durability and performance. These properties are especially important for components subjected to mechanical stress. Factors such as storage capacity, wall thickness, and alloy composition influence the overall structural of elastic energy of die-cast parts.
Die-casting alloys exhibit favorable bearing properties and wear resistance, making them suitable for applications requiring low friction and prolonged durability.
The alloys’ composition and microstructure contribute to their ability to withstand wear and provide reliable performance applied to various industrial and automotive components.
Die-casting alloys generally exhibit good machinability, with some variations. Aluminum alloys offer excellent machinability, while zinc alloys and magnesium alloys show moderate machinability, providing versatility for different applications.
