What is Die in Manufacturing

2024-08-14 By Cherry

Die casting is a molding process widely used in manufacturing.

Die casting products refer to metal products formed by

injecting molten metal into a mold under pressure and

cooling and solidifying.

Die casting is a commonly used metal processing method, 

suitable for producing various metal products with complex

shapes and precise dimensions.

Die casting products usually have the following characteristics:

1. High precision: Die casting products can achieve high-precision

size and shape requirements, and can meet the manufacturing

needs of various complex products.

2. High strength: Due to the high pressure of the metal in the

die casting process, its internal structure is dense and

has high strength and hardness.

3. Good surface quality: Die casting products have high surface

finish, no defects such as pores and inclusions, and can

meet high requirements for appearance.

4. Strong plasticity: Die casting products can use various

types of metal materials, such as aluminum alloy, zinc alloy,

magnesium alloy, etc., with strong plasticity and adaptability.

Not suitable for complex shapes: For some parts with

complex shapes, other molding methods may be required.

Application to common die-casting products

1. Auto parts: Die-casting products play an important role

in automobile manufacturing, such as engine parts, transmission

system parts, chassis parts, etc.

2. Electronic product housings: Die-casting products are often

used in the manufacture of electronic product housings,

such as mobile phones, computers, flat-screen TVs, etc.

3. Home appliance products: Die-casting products are also widely

used in the home appliance industry, such as the housing

and parts of refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners

and other products.

4. Industrial equipment parts: Die-casting products play an

important role in various industrial equipment, such as

machine tools, pumps and valves, pressure vessels, etc.

5. Lighting products: Die-casting products are often used

in the housings and radiators of lighting products, such

as LED lamps, street lamps, etc.

6. Communication equipment: Die-casting products are also

widely used in communication equipment, such as wireless

routers, communication base stations, etc.

Analysis of the die-casting product industry chain

1. Raw material supply: The raw materials of die-casting

products are mainly metal alloys, such as aluminum alloys,

zinc alloys, magnesium alloys, etc. The raw material supply

links include mineral mining, smelting, and alloy preparation.

2. Die-casting equipment manufacturing: Die-casting equipment

is a key equipment for the production of die-casting products,

including die-casting machines, molds, etc.

The manufacturing link of die-casting equipment involves

equipment manufacturers, technology research and development,

and equipment sales.

3. Die-casting processing: The die-casting processing link

is the process of injecting molten metal into the mold and

forming a die-casting product after cooling and solidification.

This link includes mold design and manufacturing, metal smelting,

injection molding, etc.

4. Product processing and assembly: Die-casting products may require

subsequent processing and assembly during the production process

to meet the needs of different industries and customers.

This includes machining, surface treatment, assembly, etc.

5. Sales and distribution: The sales and distribution link of

die-casting products involves the establishment and management

of sales channels, as well as cooperation and communication

with customers. This includes sales agents, distributors,

direct sales, etc.

6. Market application: The market application link of die-casting

products refers to the application of products in different

industries and fields, such as automobiles, electronics, home

appliances, industrial equipment, etc. This involves market

demand analysis, product positioning market promotion, etc.

7. After-sales service: The after-sales service link of die-casting

products include product quality assurance, maintenance

technical support, etc., to meet the after-sales needs of

customers.

Conclusion  

In short, die-casting is an indispensable part

of modern manufacturing. With its high efficiency, high precision,

and economy, it provides reliable solutions for all walks of life.

Understanding this process not only helps to choose the appropriate

production method, but also improves product quality and market

competitiveness.
