Die Casting Technology – Miniature Zinc Castings. The technology of Zinc Die Casting has developed so much in just few years after it was introduced in public. It has contributed a lot in the industry of miniaturization. Now, even the smallest and the most complicated geometrical parts of the zinc can be die casted through a remarkable correctness, as well as several features like multiple cored-through holes, flash-free sculpted shut-offs, very thin walls and formed shapes. A process that is used to create zinc miniature is called Miniature Zinc Castings.
Miniature Zinc Castings is an accuracy manufacturing method, which offers cost-effective production, repeatability and accuracy, improved material properties, complicated geometries and design adaptability. The Miniature Zinc Castings method is particularly useful as a substitute for assembly, stamping and screw machining.
You will be surprised to know that it can only take one pound of modern zinc alloy to create 17,000 completed castings of zinc miniatures. Modern zinc alloy is definitely tougher and stronger than magnesium or aluminum and it provides better flexibility. Zinc parts can be created in smaller sizes, along with greater complication and finer element. The best thing about zinc is that it can be easily painted and plated in addition to the wide-variety of metals to give a scope of finish and feature selections.
There are many benefits that the Miniature Zinc Castings method gives to the users and component designers aside from providing a low-cost of component. Other benefits are finishing uniqueness and exceptional exterior quality, pleasant substantial properties, thin wall divisions, great mechanical properties and low-cost assembly.
