Different Automobile Die Casting Materials

Article Category: Automotive

Author Name: Kinetic Diecasting

Die casting is the process of manufacturing metal automotive parts by injecting the molten metals in the molds under high pressure. The high pressure is important because it can lessen the air cavities that can form during the formation of the parts. There are two methods that can be utilized in diecasting: hot chamber and cold chamber method. They differ in the time needed to complete the cycle and also in the type of materials that can be utilized in the machines. Alloys with `low melting point can be processed in hot chamber and those with high melting point in the cold chamber.

The standard diecasting metals used in die casting are aluminum, zinc, copper, magnesium, tin, and lead. They have different metallurgical properties so the handling in these materials depends on their nature.

Aluminum, copper, and zinc metals are the usual die cast manufacturing alloys utilized in die casting. Aluminum is not processed as pure aluminum because it is prone to hot cracks and shrinkage. So makers combine it with others such as silicon and copper. Uses of aluminum products depend on how much alloying element is alloyed with the aluminum. Engines use aluminum with high silicon content.

Copper is rust resistant and can reduce ductility so it normally alloyed with other metals. Copper products are usually for plumbing and marine applications. Corrosion resistance is important in these things.

Zinc #5 Alloy has high melt fluidity so it can be used in precision parts such as connector housings, gears, and sprockets. It is usually alloyed with aluminum but in low amount only.

The other die cast manufacturing alloys that can be utilized are magnesium, tin, and lead. Magnesium is the lightest metal that can be die cast. Tin and lead, on the other hand, are high in density and can be utilized in products that needed to be rust resistant.

A list of alloys used for die casting The process of preparing metals that are found naturally in the earth's crust for suitable use by man is through mining, extracting, and finally combining these extracted metals into alloys. Most of the common metals in use today are not really in their pure form. They are instead a mixture of this and that metal. This practice of alloying gives us a new and enhanced version of the metals. Certain of these metals in the earth's crust are suitable as die casting material. However, mixing them with other choice metals into a composite make them stronger and more suitable die cast manufacturing alloys.

A list of die cast manufacturing materials would include magnesium, zinc, aluminum, lead and tin and copper metals. Experts in the die cast manufacturing business would be well versed in the individual qualities of these metals. Choosing the right metal alloy for a particular purpose will spell the success of a product. Here is an overview of each die cast manufacturing alloy's qualities and characteristics:

Magnesium materials, when in a composite with aluminum, improve in welding and fabrication. It is perfect for the construction of missiles and planes.
Zinc metals, in composite with copper, are known as brass. When with aluminum it has low melting point as well as low viscosity. Can be manipulated to be strong and malleable at the same time.

Aluminum metals are lightweight and corrosion resistant. Utilized in composite with magnesium, copper, silicon, zinc, manganese. Used in the aerospace, automotive, and marine industries.

A lead and tin material is called pewter. This is a malleable metal. In another form it is a solder, utilized to join metals together. Tin with copper is bronze.

Copper alloys are rust resistant metals. They have high electrical conductivity and are used accordingly.
