Zinc Die Casting Services
Zinc alloy die casting is a kind of precision casting method, which uses high pressure to force metal melt into complex metal mold. Materials worked with are iron, SG iron, ductile iron, steel, stainless steel, aluminum and aluminum alloys, brass, bronze, copper, nickel, titanium, neoprene, ethylene-propylene, nitrile, silicone, styrene-butadiene, natural rubber, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, ABS, PVC, and nylon. Also capable of molding, CNC machining, stamping, tooling, and finishing.
Zinc is the fourth most popular material in the metalworking industry that are shaped into die cast products. Because of its low melting point, it is among the easiest and least expensive (in terms of die caster energy consumption) metals to die cast. Zinc die castings are applied in contexts throughout industry, commerce and even in consumer products contexts such as Machinery and Auto industries. Zinc alloy die casting is no better than other molding technology. If you want to make good die-casting products, not only you should have a good die-casting machine, but also combine the mold, die-casting machine and die-casting process to make a good product.
Features Of Zinc Die Castings
- Good strength and hardness
- Good casting performance, can be used for casting precision parts with complex shape and thin wall, and the casting surface is smooth.
- Surface treatment: electroplating, spraying and painting.
- During melting and die casting, no iron absorption, no corrosion, no mold sticking.
- High dimensional accuracy and stability.
- It has good room temperature mechanical properties and wear resistance
- Low melting point, melting at 385 ℃, it is easier to form than aluminum alloy die casting.
Zinc Die Casting Process
The zinc die casting process involves injecting molten zinc alloy into a steel die cavity, which is designed to create parts with precise shapes and dimensions. This high-pressure process begins with melting the zinc alloy, which is then forced into the die at high speed, allowing for rapid solidification and excellent dimensional accuracy.
The quick cooling of the molten metal against the cooler steel die results in superior mechanical properties, making zinc die castings stronger and more durable than those produced by other casting methods. Additionally, zinc die casting is known for its ability to produce complex geometries and thin-walled sections, which can significantly reduce material costs and weight.
Zinc Die Casting Applications
1. Automotive Industry
Zinc die casting is widely used in automotive components due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and ability to produce complex shapes.
- Door handles
- Lock housings
- Carburetors
- Fuel system components
- Engine parts
- Brake parts
- Window cranks
- Decorative trim pieces
2. Electronics and Electrical Components
Zinc’s excellent thermal and electrical conductivity makes it ideal for electronic and electrical applications.
- Connector housings
- Heat sinks
- Switchgear components
- Electrical enclosures
- Casings for electrical devices
- LED lighting parts
Zinc Die Casting vs Aluminum Die Casting
Both zinc die casting and aluminum die casting are widely used in manufacturing, but the best choice depends on your specific application, cost considerations, and durability needs.
