The aluminum die casting process

Mold Preparation: The first step in aluminum die casting china is preparing the mold, also known as the die. The mold consists of two halves, the cavity and the core, which are precisely machined to create the desired shape of the final part. The mold is then coated with a release agent to facilitate part ejection.

Molten Aluminum Injection: Once the mold is prepared, it is clamped together, and molten aluminum is injected into the cavity under high pressure. The aluminum is typically melted in a furnace and then transferred to a specialized die casting machine. The injection process ensures that the molten aluminum fills the entire cavity and takes the shape of the mold.

Solidification: After the molten aluminum is injected into the mold, it rapidly cools and solidifies. The cooling time depends on the size and complexity of the part. Cooling channels within the mold help to expedite the solidification process. Once the aluminum has solidified, it forms the shape of the desired part.

Part Ejection: Once the aluminum has solidified, the mold is opened, and the part is ejected from the mold. Ejection pins or ejector plates are used to push the part out of the mold. The part is then separated from any excess material, such as runners or gates, which are recycled for future use.

Trimming and Finishing: After the part is ejected, it may undergo additional trimming and finishing processes to remove any excess material, such as flash or burrs, and to achieve the desired final shape and surface finish. Trimming can be done manually or using automated equipment.

Surface Treatment: Depending on the application and requirements, the aluminum part may undergo various surface treatments, such as polishing, powder coating, anodizing, or painting. These treatments enhance the appearance, corrosion resistance, and functionality of the part.
