Aluminium is an exceptional material because of its many advantages. It is prevalent in the construction, infrastructure and transport sectors due to its long life, low maintenance and contribution to energy efficiency, to name a few! DURABLE Aluminium is highly resistant to corrosion and can be used for low-maintenance structures. However, selecting the correct […]
The low melting point of aluminium makes it possible to use a permanent steel mould for castings. An injection plunger pushes liquid aluminium into the mould cavity and compresses the part during solidification in die casting. During solidification, the liquid metal typically reaches speeds of up to 60 meters per second, with pressures reaching 800 […]
This post is a continuation of part 1 on What is Die Casting? Lately, we have gone through an introduction to what die casting is. We will now cover the three variants of this process: 1. Traditional die casting 2. Vacuum die casting (for structural applications) – Alloys for die-casting – Alliance Connect (offering the die […]
