Zinc Die Casting Process
The process of die-casting is a common forming process for most metals. This is a casting method, which employs the use of dies for molding to be done. The casting method is employed when no other practical means of forming the metal is applicable. This is denoted when any of the following conditions are observed: when the desired product or shape is too large for other practical processes; when properties such as strength and quality are not very important considerations; and when the alloying metal incorporated has very low ductility making hot working or cold working hard to employ.
For practical and economical reasons, the zinc die casting process is considered in most industrial applications, specifically in the automobile industry, where zinc is widely used. In the zinc die casting process, the zinc metal is prepared for melting inside the furnace, where the melting temperature is achieved. The zinc has to be melted in such a way that it assumes the liquid state. The molten metal is then poured at a high velocity into a set of metal dies, which are maintained at a certain pressure. The metal is then allowed to cool until it completely solidifies within the die. When complete solidification is ensured, the dies are opened, and the molded zinc metal is removed.
The zinc die casting process is proven to be cost effective and economical over the other forming processes of metals, most especially when it requires the molding of large parts, and when strength is not of utmost consideration.
