Pressure Die Casting uses high levels of pressure and speed to produce precise, cost-effective metal castings. Pressure die casting is known for its reliability and is ideal for those looking to produce large quantities of identical parts. We have specialized in pressure die casting for over a hundred years and can help you meet your high-volume production needs.
Unlike gravity die casting, where the molten metal is poured into the mold from a vertical position, pressure die casting is automatically injected into a hardened steel mold. Due to the automated nature of the process, pressure die casting is very fast and therefore well suited for large-scale production.
Pressure die casting is well suited for the automotive industry as well as electrical, aerospace, kitchenware and hardware applications.
advantage
Capable of producing large quantities of identical metal parts with high precision
Cost-effective solutions for large-scale production of castings
Molten metal solidifies within seconds or even milliseconds, increasing production speed
Thousands or even millions of components can be produced before replacement is required.
Suitable for many applications
Ideal for highly complex and precise components
Suitable for long-term production or mass production
Tight dimensional control and good surface finish
Thinner casting walls and therefore lighter weight
Most die castings can be plated discreetly without any further processing
shortcoming
Requires complex and expensive equipment
Requires large capital investment to set up
Relatively less flexible than gravity die casting
Not very suitable for limited production or individual casting, the smaller the number, the higher the cost.
