Miniature Zinc Parts Everywhere . Aside from the properties of zinc as a perfect die-cast molding material, there are the metal’s other intrinsic and useful characteristics. These are its high resistance to corrosion and to electrical and heat conductivity. Because of these characteristics, die-cast miniature zinc parts are used today in a wide range of applications, especially in telecommunications, computer and electronic and electric applications, automotive and aeronautics, fiber optics, and in a lot more products such as kitchen appliances, consumer products, in mobile phones and laptops and computers, toys and gadgets, screws and bolts and locks and security gadgets. It is used everywhere and its importance to our day-to-day existence cannot be ignored.
The die-casting process of zinc involves a die-mold machine which injects the liquid zinc into the cavities of the mold. A coolant is then applied for the quick solidification of the metal. As the metal cools and solidifies, it acquires the desired shape of the mold. The new product is then taken out or ejected by machine. A mass production of these die cast products is possible. The machines may have very fast cycle times and other features that make it a cost efficient process.
This is the metalworking industry today. It is a far cry and is greatly improved from the first discovery of metals a long time ago. The bonfire was their forge. The products were mere arrow tips for hunting purposes. Copper was their first useful metal. Then the Bronze Age, then the discovery of iron, of steel, and then the industrial revolution that paved the way for the present day metal industry and the possibilities of precision die-cast molding miniature zinc parts.
