Die
casting automation for aluminum
New
automation solutions are expected to come to market in 2023, one of the key
trends in aluminum die casting. Aluminum die casting relies on highly efficient
and accurate industrial automation solutions. We will see new solutions and
partnerships with automation providers, especially on the use of AI and
robotics in industry automation. Die casting being one of the focus applications.
New
aluminum die casting methods
Like most
other manufacturers, aluminum die casting companies are constantly
experimenting with new methods and techniques and looking for new ways to
create high-quality metal products. Many die casting stakeholders are investing
in innovation and R&D owing to market demand. This will definatly improve
efficiency, production costs, and the quality of the end product which overall
great for everyone including the customers.
Low-pressure
die casting
This is a
relatively modern aluminum die casting method where molten aluminum is injected
into a die under low pressure. using a plunger pump or any other mechanism.
Manufacturers today use this method to produce high-strength aluminum parts
that incorporate intricate designs and features.
Vacuum
die casting
Vacuum
die casting has gained popularity in recent years, especially in
electronics and automotive parts manufacturing. This method involves injecting
molten aluminum into a die under vacuum. The vacuum is used to fill the die
cavity thus eliminating the need for external pressure sources. It is favored
because it minimizes porosity and surface defects.
Thinwall
Die Casting
More
metal die casting companies are utilizing thinwall die casting for complex
thin-walled die-cast aluminum parts that have enjoyed great demand in recent
years. Thinwall die casting involves injecting aluminum liquid into a die under
pressure. Thinwall aluminum die casting is likely to enjoy great demand in 2023
as electronic and automotive manufacturers rush to meet demand for parts and
new products.
Squeeze
Die Casting
Squeeze
die casting is another modern method that will enjoy usage in many
industries where intricate parts are needed. It involves using a plunger to
force liquid aluminum into a die under very high pressure.
