Why is Aluminum not Suitable for Die Casting?

By Henry / June 3rd, 2024  

In fact, this statement is one-sided. To be precise, it is that the current die-casting machine cannot die-cast pure aluminum, not that it cannot die-cast aluminum 

alloy. The reasons why the die-casting machine cannot die-cast pure aluminum are as follows:

1. The melting point of pure aluminum is relatively high, usually above 600 degrees Celsius, while the melting point of aluminum alloy is relatively low, generally 

500 degrees Celsius is sufficient. Die-casting pure aluminum will waste a lot of energy, and the work efficiency is very low.

2. The material properties of pure aluminum determine that it cannot be used to make high-level die castings. 

Because pure aluminum does not contain silicon, its fluidity is very poor, which makes it difficult to die cast. Even if it is die-cast, it can only meet the 

requirements. Products with lower quality requirements are difficult to put into mass production.

Of course, most of the time, our aluminum alloy die-casting machines use aluminum alloys with appropriate grades as die-casting materials instead of pure 

aluminum. 

LK Lijin’s cold chamber die-casting machines not only have a complete range of models but also they can die-cast more than 90% of those on the market. 

Aluminum alloy die-casting parts, such as pots, lamps, auto parts, motorcycle accessories, etc., can also be customized according to your needs. 

The operation is extremely simple, and you can get started after 30 minutes of training.
