Aluminum Die CastingDie
casting of aluminum, in which molten metal
is injected into steel molds under high pressure,
is a process that consumes almost two-thirds
of the world’s aluminum casting alloy
produced today. The popularity of die casting
results largely from the economic benefit
of its ability to manufacturer components
at very high production rates when compared
to all other casting processes.
Aluminum die casting produces
highly repeatable, thin walled, complex shaped
components. These castings are lightweight,
corrosion resistant and can withstand the
highest operating temperatures of all other
die cast alloys. They also have excellent
EMI shielding properties, high thermal and
electrical conductivity, very good strength
and hardness and are readily painted or plated.
Designs can also incorporate cast-in-place
steel, brass or aluminum inserts to add additional
advantages. |

| Aluminum
die casting is a very flexible process
that is suited to the high volume production
of parts in a wide range of sizes and
configurations. You will find aluminum
die castings in many everyday products,
including aircraft, automobiles, lawnmowers,
dental equipment, pumps, light fixtures,
and power tools to name just a few.
Whatever the alloy or application that
you require, Los Angeles Die Casting
