Process

Zinc Die Casting

Zinc die casting is a manufacturing process used to create metal parts and components from zinc alloys. It is similar to aluminum die casting but uses zinc as the primary material.

Zinc alloys are applicable in part manufacturing due to their ductility, impact strength, and low melting point. Furthermore, the casting process occurs under lower heat due to the material’s low melting point. Hence the name “hot chamber die casting process.

Furthermore, the hot chamber process contributes to the extended lifespan of the die, longer intervals between retooling, and cost savings when compared to other materials used in die casting.

Applications

Zinc die casting finds application in a wide range of industries and products due to its versatility, durability, and precision.

Automotive Industry

Such as door handles, interior trim, brackets, and engine components, thanks to their strength, corrosion resistance, and ability to replicate intricate designs.

Electronics Industry

Zinc die casting is employed for housing and components in electronic devices, including connectors, brackets, and heat sinks, as it provides efficient electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.

Appliances

Household appliances like washing machines, refrigerators, and ovens use zinc die-cast parts because they are strong, resist rust, and are easy to finish

Industrial Equipment

Various industrial machinery and equipment incorporate zinc die-cast parts for their robustness, precision, and resistance to harsh environments.

Trimming, Deburring & Machining

After casting, excess material and sharp edges are removed to achieve the desired shape and enhance safety. Additional machining operations, like drilling, tapping, and milling, may be conducted for precise dimensions and features.

Aluminum Die Casting Service

For aluminum and other alloys with higher melting points, the cold chamber die casting process is used. In this method, the molten metal is ladled into a separate chamber, and then a hydraulic piston injects it into the die. The use of a separate chamber keeps the molten metal away from the machine’s plunger and nozzle, which prevents exposure to high temperatures that could damage those components.

Surface Finishing

Applying various surface treatments to improve aesthetics and protect against corrosion. This includes processes like polishing, buffing, shot blasting, and sanding.

Tolerance

Tightest tolerance: ±.0008’’ (0.020 mm) Tighter tolerances are examined on a case by case basis with your technical drawings. Kintech’s CNC machining service can produce CNC parts with tolerance as low as ± 0.0002 in. Without a drawing, all CNC parts are produced to our ISO 2768 medium standard. We can also machine to tighter tolerances, ±0.025mm or ±0.001″, with an attached engineering drawing calling out critical features.
