System Approach to Die Casting Equipment
Many engineers who design parts to be die cast with die casting equipment have no idea how large, how thin, how precise, and how complex light metal castings can now be made with the aid of vacuum. For example, some components that have previously been made from two castings can now be redesigned into one. Parts that were machined after casting, can now be cast with the required close tolerances. Making walls thinner can reduce weight. Structural integrity can be improved and scrap reduced by eliminating porosity.
The number of ways to add value to the products is limited only by the imagination of the die caster, his knowledge of what now can be accomplished and his determination to succeed.
