High Pressure Die Casting is an extremely efficient manufacturing method for producing various high pressure die casting parts forms. The process forces molten metal at high speed, and high pressure into a closed steel die cavity. The die has a stationary and moving half, both of which are mounted to the die casting machine’s platens. The die casting machine has an injection end that uses hydraulics and pressurized gas to move a piston forward, injecting the molten metal into the closed steel die. The die casting machine also has a clamping end that utilizes hydraulics and mechanical toggles to absorb the injection pressure and hold the die shut while the part solidifies. The process is capable of turning molten metal into a solid near-net-shape part in seconds.
The main metal used with this high pressure die casting parts are aluminum.We casts aluminum and employs both cold chamber and hot chamber high-pressure die casting processes.
High Pressure Die Casting can produce large, light-alloy high pressure die casting parts in high volumes at great speed and efficiency. The high pressure die casting process also delivers parts with superior surface finish, excellent uniformity, and optimum mechanical properties.
High-Pressure Die Casting is that it generally doesn’t require much machining thanks to excellent dimensional accuracy and smooth surfaces. Compared to other manufacturing processes, high-pressure die casting is an efficient, economical process that:
Produce strong, lightweight parts that require less machining than fabricated parts
Create complex and intricate shapes in a single piece, eliminating the need for assembly or welding
Offer a more broad range of shapes that other metal manufacturing techniques
Achieves close tolerances

Why does die casting require high pressure?
High-Pressure Die Casting can produce large, light-alloy parts in high volumes at great speed and efficiency. The HPDC process also delivers parts with superior surface finish, excellent uniformity, and optimum mechanical properties.
What is die casting structural parts?
What is Structural Die Casting? This is the process of creating complex components by forcing molten metal into molds that are called Dies under pressure. The molten metal then solidifies into a cast. It is mostly applied in the automotive and aviation industry to make complex parts that are eventually joined together.
