Aluminum is hard, tough, durable and very strong, however it is very light and cheap. All these features makes it ideal to mass produce aluminum Handles. Majority of aluminum handles are made through die casting, which supports the production of bulk orders. Aluminum die casting is a manufacturing process that can produce aluminum handles using reusable molds, also called dies. The complete manufacturing process involves the use of a furnace, aluminum ingots, die casting machine, and mold. Solid aluminum ingots are melted in a heating furnace under high temperature, and then injected into the dies under the workforce of die casting machine. Once the liquid aluminum solidifies, the solid aluminum handles are formed.
Aluminum die casting process can effectively cast out the holes into place without the additional machining, which helps save cost. Also, aluminum handles cast in one piece are are stronger than a steel welded part. With the help of die casting molds, the manufacturing process is more stable and high efficient than other industrial processes. In addition, it is easier to polish aluminum handles to achieve a smooth and shining surface finish. The rate of manufacture die cast aluminum handles can reach a few thousands in a day.
