You probably already noticed that we are big fans of Die Casting technology, and as a proof we would like to take you on a tour around our High Pressure Die Casting facility. This is an excellent opportunity to show off the facilities and equipment and introduce some of the standard procedures that are strictly adhered to here.
High Pressure Die Casting is one of the most popular manufacturing techniques for a wide range of aluminium products. This manufacturing technology allows to produce complex shapes and supports very tight dimensional tolerances. Additionally, you can achieve smooth surface finishes, preparing the product for further treatment. HPDC is also suitable for relatively thin-walled components to be cast, which can be problematic with other casting techniques.
- Tight dimensional tolerance
- Smooth surface
- Complex shapes
- Thin-walled products
- Fast turnaround cycle
- Large and small items
One of the main drawbacks of HPDC process is the comparatively high startup and operation costs. The dies are costly to make and more complicated than semi-permanent or sand moulds. However, by outsourcing this process to Asian suppliers your business can benefit from increased product turnaround time and lower production costs.
