The Art of Aluminum Parts

The Art of Aluminum Parts. With all their intricate details, aluminum die casting parts would sure pass as works of art. People who are clueless about this industrial works of art could even mistake them as art pieces from some posh modern gallery or some installment in a young artist’s collection.

Aluminum components are used as military parts and are utilized by most branches of the United States military. Companies who cater these aluminum die casting parts to the military usually cut off the excess parts of the material after incorporating the military parts with aluminum. Procedures like impregnating the castings, inspection for zyglo, machining the parts according to specifications, inspection and the like usually follow. These are done to seal porosity and avoid defects with each of their products. Even military aircraft parts make use of these parts so companies who make them must make sure that their products have corrosion detection/prevention; crack detection; can withstand high-temperature fatigue and fracture plus high-cycle engine fatigue; has vibration control; real-time three-dimensional flight loads; and wear monitoring, modeling, and simulation; advanced intelligent and flexible manufacturing methods; advances in materials and processes, including coatings.

Agencies like the United States Army, United States Navy, United States Air Force, Defense Logistics Agency, United States Special Operations Command, United States Transportation Command, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Missile Defense Agency, Defense Information Systems Agency, Defense Finance and Accounting Service, and the Defense Commissary Agency are usually the ones who need and purchase these aluminum military parts. With that said, these pieces then can be considered as more than just everyday aluminum parts.

But you have to believe that these aluminum die casting parts are actually used to make stuff from military parts to aluminum housings, roofing tilemolds to amplifier parts, and aluminum handle hardware to automotive parts – mostly things that we use everyday.

Die Casting Guitar Amplifiers

Guitar amplifiers were at first used with bass guitars and electronic keyboards, but when broader-bandwidth sounds are needed, other instruments use a suitable full-range speaker system and different power level. Much more amplifier power is required to clearly reproduce low-frequency pitches produced by bass guitars and electronic keyboards, especially at high volumes.

Sometimes guitar amplifiers used with electric guitars are solid state, because they are easy to repair, lighter-weight, and less expensive. Despite the drawbacks of vacuum tube amps, such as their heavy weight and the need to periodically pay to re-tube and re-bias the guitar amp (every year or two with moderate use), many guitarists prefer the sound of vacuum tube guitar amps, particularly in the genres of blues and rock. There are modern tube guitar amplifier companies that are designing fixed-biased guitar amps that require no tube biasing so long as the proper rating tube is used. There are also tube amps designed to make biasing very simple for the user.

Modern guitar amps use aluminum die castings and a mixture of both tube and solid-state technologies, with 1960s vintage vacuum tubes next to integrated circuits. With the advent of microprocessors and digital signal processing in the late 1990s, modeling guitar amps were developed that can simulate a variety of well-known guitar amplifiers' vacuum tube sounds without necessarily using vacuum tubes. A new guitar amplifier with special processors and software can emulate the sound of a classic guitar amps almost perfectly, but due to the digital element of modeling the response of these amplifiers from the player's point of view is not quite the same. "Hard core" tube guitar amp fans may not be able to tell the difference, in a blind auditory test, but will most always choose to play a tube guitar amp because of its analog sensitivity.

Aluminum Die Casting Heat Sink

What is an Aluminum Heatsink? A Heat sink is an object that ingests and disperses heat which comes from another object by direct or radiant thermal contact. Heat sinks are often used in various functions wherein effective heat dispersion is needed. Few examples are lasers, cooling electronic apparatus, heat engines and refrigeration. You can often see an Aluminum Heat sink attached to a computer’s circuit board.

Normally Heat Sink have a collection of fin-like or comb projections and a single or more than two surfaces. These properties of a heat sink increases its outer face area which touches the air, and as a result, the heat dispersion percentage increases. Since aluminum heat sinks are known to be static objects, a fan is used to help heat sinks by giving better airflow.

Usually, aluminum die castings are used in making heat sinks because this is the perfect material that conducts heat, and it is also lighter and cheaper than other materials. The main advantage of Aluminum Heatsinks is that they may be shaped through the process of extrusion effortlessly, which is why they make the difficult cross sections achievable. The base area of the Aluminum Heatsinks should be smooth and even to guarantee the most advantageous thermal connection together with the other object which needs cooling.

Furthermore, if you match up the process used to make the Aluminum Heatsinks to other Die Casting Heat sink processes, you’ll notice that it only involves less machining, and cooling fins may actually be done while setting up the holes. Additionally, the Aluminum Heatsinks possess a great dimensional constancy.

The Importance of Metal

Important Metals. Manufacturing a die cast metal part needs equipment like hot-chamber or cold-chamber machines. These machines have the die or mold in them, as well as the injection component for a high pressure mechanism. This will push the molten metal into the die chamber and fill the mold. The machine also has a mechanism to separate and eject the finished product.

What is die casting? How do you define die casting? Simply put, die casting is a process of manufacturing metal parts by molding the molten metal. The metals used are ductile, malleable metals with a high degree of heat and electric conductivity, high strength and corrosion resistance, wear resistance, can be easily plated, and with good dimensional stability, namely: aluminum, copper, magnesium, tin and lead, and brass. The metals have low iron content and low melting point, but sometimes ferrous, or iron, metals can be used.

First of all,Manufacturing die cast parts is done in a specialized company with the right equipment and expertise. The finished products are used in a variety of industrial fields: automotive, aeronautics, telecom, factories. Die cast metals are also present in households, in some kitchen apparatus and furniture, bathroom products such as shavers, storage shelves, and even in metal plumbing fixtures. In the field of telecommunications, these die cast parts are present in mobile phone antennas, laptops and computers; and finally they are very popular as die cast toy collectibles.

Metal parts made using the die casting process is everywhere to be found in our modern world. Die cast companies are manufacturing hundreds of products for hundreds of different industries and trades. That is how important these metals are to us today.

Aluminum Hardware Brackets--The Local Favorite

The Strength of Aluminum Hardware Brackets. Often shaped like the letter L, a bracket is a plain inflexible object wherein one limb is vertically attached on the wall while the other limb is horizontally sticking out with the intention of supporting weight or a ledge. Among all kinds of brackets, Aluminum Die Casting Brackets are definitely the strongest and the cheapest. As a matter of fact, the total weight of an aluminum bracket is just 1/3 of the total weight of a steel bracket. The main types of aluminum brackets which are made of high-quality aluminum materials are the multipurpose servo bracket, right angle surface bracket and angle bracket.

The favorite of die casting companies is Aluminum Brackets Hardware because it is strong, lightweight and inexpensive. Also believed to be Aluminum Brackets Hardware are the aluminum lighting furniture brackets, which by the way replaced the former lantern clinching brackets. Moreover, Aluminum Brackets Hardware can be decorated or coated.

A chocolate fountain needs aluminum brackets to support and hold its heater cover, while aluminum brackets at barns are used to hold and secure things on the wall. The small brackets are typically used to hold up mirrors attached on dressers, support two drawers jointly and brace ledges in cabinets. The seat-back tray table of the Boeing 747-700 is braced with a pair of aluminum brackets, sufficiently tough to carry laptops, plates, cups or glasses, and the hands and arms of the plane passengers.

Without any doubt, Aluminum Brackets Hardware has lots of functions especially in newly-built and already built homes as well as aircrafts.

Aluminum Die Casting

Aluminum Die Casting. Aluminum today is a commonly used metal alloy in a lot of products covering numerous industries. It is used in building automobiles, it is used in consumer electronics, and it is used in housing projects and many more. There are several ways to make use of this metal alloy. Manufacturers all over the world have chosen this metal for their products because it is cheap to obtain, it is a lightweight material yet it is very strong and durable. When it comes to their aluminum needs, manufacturers commonly go to an Aluminum Die Casting Company.

An Aluminum Die Casting Company provides a service to manufacturers of manipulating aluminum metals into the desired shape and size. In other words, these companies are responsible for taking a bar of aluminum alloy and turning them into various parts such as heat sinks, lighting fixtures, brackets and automotive parts. They do this through a process known as die casting wherein the aluminum bars are subjected to intense heating until they liquefy. The liquefied aluminum will next be poured into large metal casings known as castings or molds. The liquid metal would take the form of the casting and when it is cooled, the metal will harden into its former solid state no longer a bar, but the intended shape.

Furthermore, the service of an Aluminum Die Casting Company is very valuable to many manufacturers as they provide high quality material at low costs. This is especially helpful for those does not have access to the needed machinery to accomplish die casting.

Lighting Up Your Home with Aluminum Lighting Fixtures

Aluminum Lighting Fixtures to Lighten up Your Home. Lighting fixtures are primarily for creating artificial illumination. A lighting fixture consists of the light source, an opening that could either have lenses or none, a light reflector that controls the light and directs it towards a certain point, an electrical counterweight, a light housing for protective purposes, and a cable connecting to the power source. Lighting fixtures can be classified as either outdoor or indoor lighting fixtures.

Before the introduction of die casting, parts used in lighting purposes were made by welding parts together. This process was impractical; it was slow, expensive, and labor extensive. Today however, lighting fixtures are produced through die casting, a process which involves the pressurizing of molten metals into mold cavities, which is followed by a cooling process. Die casting is extremely advantageous if your objective is to manufacture substantial amounts of small to medium-sized lighting parts with excellent details and features.

Furthermore, Aluminum, a strong, lightweight metal, is the widely-used metal for die cast lighting parts because of its sturdiness, electrical conductivity and good thermal properties. The production of aluminum die castings is also better than with other metals because the former could be produced in net shape, doing away with welding.

Die cast aluminum lighting fixtures are used extensively in the lighting components found in parking garages and medical offices. These are also incorporated in street traffic lights, outdoor lights, wall lighting fixtures and bullet lighting fixtures. Aluminum lighting fixtures are also used for aerospace lighting, medical lighting, automobile lighting and marine lighting.

Manufacture Die Cast Parts

How to Manufacture Die Cast Parts. In manufacturing die cast parts, four major steps are to be followed in the die casting process. The first step involves the spraying of the mold with lubricant in order to control the temperature of the die and, later on, assist in the easy removal of the casting. Once the mold is closed, molten metal is shot directly into the die under high pressure. The pressure is maintained until finally, the die casting successfully solidifies or hardens. When the die is opened, ejector pins release the shot. Scrap material must then be separated from the casting by hand or sawing or by using a hydraulic press or a power press; said scrap includes the runners, sprues, flash, and the gate.

What is the die casting method? What is great about the die casting method is that it does not leave scrap material rotting in the trash. The die casting method is known to be friendly to the environment compared to other casting methods out there. One of the reasons for this reputation is the fact that scrap material in the die casting process is recycled by reheating and remelting them again. This way, no metal is left to waste and no additional harm is directed into the environment in manufacturing die cast parts.

Furthermore, Manufacturing die cast parts calls to action die cast designers and die cast engineers. Die cast parts can come out in varying shapes and sizes, depending on the specifications of the customer. They have multiple finishing options, including those related to surface, texture, and overall look and feel. Die cast designers can think of ways to make the separation of scrap material more accurate so as not to deform castings. Die cast engineers, on the other hand, can think of ways to make production more receptive to greening techniques, which are fast becoming a trend in industrial businesses these days, as prompted by the declining condition of the planet.

The Process of Die Casting

The process of die casting provides the backbone to the functioning of the major heavy and even light metal industries and especially in developed economies such as the US. Most of the raw material parts in hardware, auto and locomotive industries are a product of this vital process. Here is simple and short guide get elemental knowledge about this technique.

To define in a simple layman tone, die casting is a process where at high pressure and controlled conditions, molten metal is poured or forced into casts or molds and consequently give them solid definite shapes for desired purposes.

THE FOUR STEP PROCESS

  • The cast is readied for pouring in the molten metal. This is done by lubricating the walls of the mold so that when the metal solidifies it is easier to take it out. The lubricant also helps in maintaining the perfect temperature for the process.
  • Next the liquid metal is forced into the cast; a more technical terminology would be “shooting” the molten metal inside. It is very important that the constant high pressure is maintained at this stage. The pressure is usually ranged from 1500 to 2500 psi.
  • The next step is to open the cast and then the shot/shots are taken out using ejector pins.
  • The last step is to separate all the waste or scrap such as gate, runner, sprues form the pure cast of the metal.
  • The cast which are used are preferably made out of non ferrous metals such as copper, zinc, magnesium, aluminum and the like. In the present day the demand for aluminum products is sky high and so is the supply through aluminum die casting.

    Aluminum Die Casting

    Aluminum die casting and Aluminum Die Casting Parts. The aluminum die casting process is one that began over a century ago. It is now widely used all around the world and is in fact one of the most popular casting methods in modern times. Aluminum die casting parts are known to offer more advantages than their counterparts; those produced using other casting methods, including stamping, sand casting, forging, and permanent molding, among others. As an art, Aluminum die casting continues to develop as a craft. In its early years, aluminum die casting alloys were limited to compositions of lead and tin, followed by the switch to aluminum and zinc die casting. Then came the preference for copper and magnesium, until the birth and evolution of modern alloys which are now being used today. Moreover, the aluminum die casting process no longer uses the injection method which was stated earlier. Nowadays, the process has changed from using low-pressure methods to high-pressure casting, semi-solid aluminum die casting, and squeeze casting. Plus, it has become more efficient in terms of speed in the production and choices in the end products. Thanks to technological advancements, the aluminum die casting process is now capable of producing strong, dimensionally precise, and high-integrity aluminum die casting parts that boast of superior surface finishes and shapes, sizes, and thicknesses of all kinds. Furthermore, the future of aluminum die casting is teeming with promise, based on the rising demand for die cast parts. There are ongoing refinements in the aluminum die casting process itself, beginning with the alloys used and the final stages of production. Aluminum die casting applications are presently enjoying considerable expansion into almost every market that uses metalwork, and aluminum die casting experts are nowhere near stopping their high-volume existence.

They couldn’t be more wrong. Die casting company makes parts are made using a process that is strict, accuracy-conscious, and perfection-oriented. This process is no less than die casting, one of the most preferred methods in casting these days because of the vast number of advantages they offer to both consumers and manufacturers.

    Die casting is an old process that involves the injection of molten metal into reusable molds, also known as dies, with the use of high pressure. There are different kinds of metal that can be used in the process; they may be ferrous or non-ferrous. Held under high pressure, the chosen metal remains in the chamber until it solidifies or hardens into a net-shaped part and becomes what becomes known as a die cast part. Precision is the key in making die cast parts that are shaped and measured to perfection.

    Furthermore, the die casting process is regarded in the metalworking industry as the most versatile one. No other metal casting process existing today allows for a wide array of options in sizes, shapes, design intricacy, measurement preciseness, and dimensional tolerance. There are so many things that can be done using the process in order to satisfy consumer needs for both commercial and industrial purposes. Homes and offices, as well as private and public entities, can benefit greatly from the choices available. The process of making die cast parts is indeed a valuable one.

    Roofing Materials

    Roofing Materials. Damage from extreme weather conditions such as storms and hurricanes can play havoc on inferior roofs. This means that using quality roofing materials should take precedence when you are a contractor building a house, or in the process of a roof remodeling project.

    Concrete roofing tiles have evolved through the years as one admirable type of roof tile materials. They used to be manufactured in the form of huge sheets of tiles in the past, but were found to last on an average of only 10 years. When they were made in smaller roof tile sizes, they could last for more than 20 years and were considerably hardier compared to the larger sheets.

    An advantage that manufacturers discovered about concrete roofing tilemolds materials is that they took to pigment easily. This meant that the tiles could be manufactured in a variety of different colours, making them more versatile as decorative pieces, as well as making them attractive on roofs. In addition, their durability kept them resistant to breakage, and their heavy weight kept them from suddenly blowing away in a strong wind.

    Furthermore, a lot of people in the roof tile industry realized that with only a minimum investment and a small shop, they could start a business producing concrete roof tiles. All they needed was a small start-up cost, which included easily-purchased equipment, mixes, and other supplies.

    Aluminum Manufacturing is Essential!

    Aluminum Manufacturing is Essential. Aluminum is the thirteenth element in the periodic table. Aside from nitrogen and oxygen, this metal is one of the most abundant elements that can be found in the Earth’s crust. This metal is an important component in manufacturing transport vehicles, building construction, packaging and many more. Kinetic Die Casting Company is an aluminum parts manufacturing company.

    Heavier vehicles require more fuel to accelerate. With that concept, manufacturers choose aluminum because it is light weight. Aluminum manufacturing of auto vehicle parts results to low fuel consumption. Also, aluminum plays an important role not only on land vehicles but also in the aircraft industry because 80% of most planes are made up of aluminum.

    Also, it doesn’t require further painting and weight of airplanes because it can resist corrosion. Paint in airplanes is considered as unnecessary weight.

    Furthermore, Aluminum is also best known for its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. It is better to use this as a conductor instead of copper. It is the frequently used material in major electric transmission lines. Aluminum part manufacturing somehow is responsible why you can turn on your lights, your computer, and microwave at home.

    Because of Aluminum's ductile property and low melting point, it can be processed and formed in many ways. This metal is an excellent reflector of light and heat as well. Most reflectors used in rescue blankets and light fittings are made up of aluminum.

    Aluminum foil is very common to each home. This is also made up of aluminum and its non-toxic. Once the food is wrapped, the aroma nor the taste doesn’t come out. That is why it is very ideal to use in packaging products such as pharmaceutical or food. Also, this metal is also used in canning the processed food in food manufacturing plants.

    Aluminum manufacturing makes possible some simple but important functions in our daily lives.

    Die Cast Tooling Info

    Die casting tooling is also known as die casting dies, die casting molds or insert die. Die casting tooling also comes in different sizes, values, and styles. Die casting tooling comes either with a single cavity or multiple cavities. The cost for die cast tooling varies for trim dies and cavity inserts. Tooling can be damaged and wear off from erosion if the cavity inserts are soft. It requires expertise and understanding on how to mold tooling for aluminum. Kinetic Die Casting Company makes die cast tooling. Tooling insert is the cheapest form of die cast tooling. It requires heat treatment to extend its tooling life. The die cast tooling insert can wear away and be easily damaged due to erosion of the molten metal. There are die casting toolmakers that don’t use enough steel. Therefore it results to low potential life of the inserts. Furthermore, Inserts must be mounted into a holder that allows the aluminum to inject into the insert. A pathway should be provided for the metal to go in. These holders are commonly called as family die, unit die or mold base. If you can’t get yourself good quality die casting tooling inserts for your aluminum because it is expensive, try to get a prototype. The prototype insert is can also be used to test and create a design. It is somehow less expensive compared to a hardened cavity insert and it takes less time to produce. However, this tool can be damaged easily and since it is not as good as a steel insert, it can’t be modified. Kinetic Die Casting manufactures aluminum and zinc die casting parts.

    Aluminum Die Casting has a Low Carbon Footprint!

    Low Carbon Footprint of Aluminum Die Castings Should Be Marketed to Industry. The die casting industry has long been built on recycling. The metal alloys used by the die casters are produced from recycled raw materials, created with far less energy than is required for virgin alloys. More than 95% of the aluminum die castings produced in North America are made of post-consumer recycled aluminum, helping to keep the aluminum content of municipal solid waste to less than 1%. In response to questions from NADCA member companies about the carbon footprint of automotive die castings compared to alternative materials and processes for automotive components, this Carbon Footprint study by William A. Butler was authorized. Specifically, the study compares the cradle-to-grave carbon footprint of aluminum and magnesium die cast components with the carbon footprint of injection molded plastic components. The results of the study provide environmental impact information to the die casting industry, provide a baseline for further component carbon footprint evaluations in the future and identify opportunities for industry improvement in the environmental impact of die casting operations. One of the most significant study results is that — neglecting the contribution of product use to the total carbon footprint — aluminum die casting has the lowest carbon footprint because of its use of secondary aluminum alloys and its ability to be recycled. NADCA members can download The “Carbon Footprint” of Aluminum and Magnesium Die Castings Compared to Injection Molded Components at www.diecasting.org/members.

    Heat Sinks for Your Convenience

    Aluminum Heat Sinks for Your Convenience. Aluminum heat sinks have the ability to absorb and disperse heat from another object through thermal contact since aluminum has good electrical and thermal properties. This amazing characteristic makes aluminum heat sinks ideal for cooling purposes. An aluminum heat sink is a piece of molded aluminum usually placed on top of a processor. In most cases, you would first have to remove the heat sink before you would be able to see the processor.

    Whenever or wherever a need for effective heat dispersal exists, there will undoubtedly be aluminum heat sinks installed. Refrigeration is the foremost industry that employs the use of heat sinks. The aluminum heat sinks produced these days come in various shapes, forms and sizes. The standard heat sink though, contains long fins and thin protruding extensions for directing the heat coming from the processor to the cooler setting inside the heat sink. Majority of today’s heat sinks available in the market are furnished with fans that blow cool air towards the fins to disperse the heat more efficiently. These fans are usually situated on top or in the middle of the fins.

    Furthermore, Die Cast Aluminum Heat Sinks are designed in such a way that less machining is necessary. The production rate averages from 250 to 2,500 heat sink parts a day. Another great think with aluminum heat sinks is that they are completely lighter than their stainless steel equivalents, having a specific gravity of 0.10 pounds per cubic inch. They are also easily grounded since aluminum is electrically conductive.

    Also, Aluminum heat sinks are used in cell phones, motor housings, circuit boards, refrigerators, airplane parts, satellite components, automotive, lighting parts, microwaves, etc.

    Kinetic Die Casting manufactures products like heatsink die casting, aluminum housings, and lighting fixtures.
