Metal Die Casting Services is a popular method for making large quantities of intricate metal parts because it’s versatile, reliable, and precise. It reduces the need for extra steps in manufacturing, though some parts may still need additional machining for precise tolerances. After casting, parts can be finished to match those made with CNC machining.
Like injection molding, die casting involves creating a mold tool, or die, which can have one or more cavities. This process is effective for softer alloys like aluminum and zinc because they melt at lower temperatures. Molten metal is injected into the die cavity, taking the shape of the part before solidifying.
Die casting can be done under lower high pressure, using a spoon or plunger to inject the metal. It consistently produces complex, precise parts in large quantities. Modern techniques like squeeze casting and semi-solid metal casting ensure high-quality parts for various industries.
Our project managers and experts personally review and manually quote each die-casting project to ensure we meet your unique needs while providing a fast and easy manufacturing experience.
| 6061 | 6082 | 6063 |
| The most versatile of the heat-treatable aluminum alloys, this grade retains most of aluminum’s good qualities. It offers a wide range of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It can be fabricated using the most commonly used techniques and has good workability in annealing. | Aluminum 6082 is a medium-strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance and the highest strength among the 6000 series alloys. Known as a structural alloy, 6082 is most commonly used for machining in plate form. As a relatively new alloy, its high tensile strength has allowed it to replace aluminum 6061 in many applications. | |
| 7075 | 5052 | |
| Aluminum 7075 is one of the highest-strength aluminum alloys available, featuring an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. It is ideal for highly stressed parts and is typically used in the aviation industry for complex structures and high precision. | This is the highest-strength alloy among the non-heat-treatable grades, with fatigue strength higher than most other aluminum grades. It has good resistance to marine atmosphere and saltwater corrosion and excellent workability. |
Once satisfied with your samples, we move forward with production and deliver the parts. You own your tooling and can easily re-order as needed to meet demand.
Upload your files through email and configure your project. Our team will consult with you to ensure your specifications, lead time, and price fit your project needs. We will provide a production feasibility for approval before kicking off tooling.
Once your project is kicked off we will build a high-quality die. After the tooling is created we will send out part samples, called T1s, for approval.
Once satisfied with your samples, we move forward with production and deliver the parts.
The versatility and high production potential of die casting enable it for various applications and industries. Die-casting products that are small to medium in size with complex features are typically well-suited for the process. Examples include consumer and industrial products, automotive parts, aerospace components, and parts for medical devices.
Die-casting products are a great option when you need high-volume metal parts that may be too large for similar high-volume processes such as Metal Injection Molding (MIM).
Creating the die requires upfront time and resource investment, but once it’s created, tens of thousands of identical parts can be manufactured at a relatively low per-part cost. Die casting may be more cost-effective in terms of volume, but CNC machining offsets the die cost.
