Aluminum Casting

Product Description

Aluminum is well known for being lightweight. In fact, it is almost three times lighter than iron, with a density of 2,700 kg/m3. Remarkably, the low density of aluminum does not affect its strength. Aluminum alloys have a wide range of strength characteristics with tensile strengths ranging from 70 to 700 MPa. At low temperatures, the strength of aluminum increases, while at high temperatures, it decreases.
Aluminum can also be easily machined, and the power required is low due to the lower density. The high levels of malleability of aluminum give it the ability to be extruded easily. This enables the product to be bent and rolled, and is a key characteristic in the creation of aluminum foils.
Aluminum is widely applied in different casting parts serving a range of industries, both non industrial and industrial uses. aluminum foundries use various casting technologies, and quality is one of the key factors in deciding which technology is suitable. Aluminum casting methods vary in different manufacturing processes, from sand casting, die casting, pressure die casting, continuous casting, shell mold casting, etc. Each aluminum casting process will have its advantages and disadvantages. 
Depending on the casting’s size and complexity, we can choose the most suitable method. 
Aluminum investment casting
Aluminum investment casting produces a wide array of complex and lightweight components. By heating the material above its melting point and pouring it into the mold, it will solidify into the required 3D shape. First, a pattern is produced for mold preparation, then wax is injected into the mold. Depending on the project type, die casting may be used. If a stronger casting is required, a semi-permanent or permanent mold casting may be used. Next the mold is sanded and de-waxed. Finally, the aluminum casting is polished and tested and machined into a final product.
Aluminum castings are popular in the automotive, aerospace, and machinery industry. They are used for a number of commercial and industrial applications due to their ability to withstand high operating temperatures, thermal conductivity, and full recyclability. Depending on the intended mechanical properties and project demands, aluminum castings are selected for their lightweight and durable features.
Aluminum Die Casting
Die casting is ideal for large order quantities and large-scale pieces because it delivers consistency and repeatability.
Aluminum die casting delivers ideal tolerance control and surface finish with high volume capacity. The quenching transfer time is less than 15 seconds, delivering consistently precise die cast parts.
Low Pressure Aluminum Die Casting Process
Our die casting machines inject molten aluminum into the die. When the molten aluminum solidifies, the casting is ejected. Complex projects use hydraulic cylinders to achieve perfection and accuracy. The end result is a lightweight and durable product that is fully recyclable and reusable in production.
