Brackets are the common hardwares to creat different products for a lot of industries. The fuction of brackets is to ensure that the components will not move and stay in place. Typical application of brackets are like lighting fixtures, aircrafts, chocolate fountains, automobiles and constructions. Its purpose is to make sure that other parts in the product does not move and stays in place. For example, brackets are used in construction becuase it can keep the beams in the proper…

Handles are the common hardware used for home and industrial applications. People may see handles in different types of materials, such as wood, plastic, stainless steel, brass and aluminum. Among all the materials, handles made from aluminum is the most popular, so you can find aluminum handles are installed everywhere that requires the manipulation of the human hand in pulling or turning. For example, aluminum handles are used to open or close house and car doors. The same thing goes…

Gravity die casting and low pressure die casting all belong to metal mold casting process, both are used to produce aluminum castings. They all use metal mold for manufacturing, typical used mold material is H13 in China. Gravity die casting and low-pressure die casting process can produce the same grade of cast aluminum alloy. Besides, these two aluminum casting methods have similar features in pouring temperature, mold opening time, and mechanical properties (density, strength, etc). Gravity die casting and low-pressure…

What is Aluminum Die Casting? Casting is a process of metal smelting and processing, usually using the gravity of the metal in the mold for casting. But, aluminum die casting is not done by gravity, but by applying pressure. It’s kind of like injection molding. But it has a high technical content of core pulling, cooling and other systems. In general, the material is delivered through a central entrance into a cavity to be cast and “injected” to form parts.…

Aluminum Casting & Its Processes Casting is first & most widely used method of forming aluminum into products. Although there have been advancements in technology, the basic idea remains same: To duplicate a pattern, molten metal is poured into a mold. Aluminum die casting, aluminum gravity casting, and aluminum sand casting are three most common aluminum casting processes. Aluminum Die Casting During Under pressure, aluminum die casting process presses molten aluminum into a steel die. Due to the high tooling…

Among all the metalworking processes, casting is the most flexible method for creating metal components with complex shapes. Due to the good castability of aluminum alloys, it has been one of the main casting metals. Aluminum casting alloys offer a range of advantages, including good corrosition resistance, high fluidity, low melting point, short casting cycles, good as-cast surface finish and chemical stability. About 30% of all aluminum products are manufactured by casting and most of complex pieces are produced in…
