Hot or Cold Zinc. In the industry of die casting, one of the metals that work best in both die casting processes is zinc. Both hot-chamber die casting and cold-chamber die casting machines can use zinc alloy in the die casting process. The low melting point of zinc makes it a versatile metal to use in any die casting process. The zinc die casting process is effective in churning out parts that are more complex in shape and are more tolerant of temperature extremes. This versatility translates to its varied uses in various industries including electronics, sports, medicine, fiber optics, and telecommunications among others.
Hot-chamber method of the die casting process involves the melting of zinc in a chamber to form a pool of molten metal which is injected to fill die casts made of hardened tool metal using and maintaining pressure until the metal hardens to form the desired metal part. The cold-chamber method, on the other hand, requires metal to be melted using a separate chamber as a furnace. The molten metal is then transferred on to another chamber where metal is slowly injected into the tool dies. This method, however, is slower compared to the hot-chamber zinc method as time is required to transfer molten metal into another chamber and injection is done slower.
Furthermore, in any zinc die casting company process, a more extensive range of shapes and sizes can be produced. Various textures can also be achieved with this die casting process. From simple studs to sink faucets and connector housings, most anything can be produced using the zinc die casting process.
