Performing
well under
conditions
of high
impact and
impulse
loading
with
excellent
wear
properties,
their high
ductility
allows
them to be
formed
after
casting to
allow easy
joining
operations.
They have
good
thermal
and
electrical
conductivity,
and accept
a wide
range of
platings
and
finishes
with
ease.
Zinc alloy
is also
completely
recyclable.
Diecasting
is the
fastest
net shape
forming
process, a
superior
alternative
to
machining
and
pressings,
extrusions
and
fabrications.
Intricate
components
are
produced
with
tolerances
as close
as if
machined,
giving
part to
part
consistency
shot after
shot.
With its
long
tooling
life and
rapid
production
rates,
diecasting
offers the
most cost
effective
manufacturing
process
for high
volume
products.
Zinc
diecasting
offers a
large
degree of
design
freedom.
Practically
any idea
or design
can be
diecast,
allowing
complex
assemblies
to be
redesigned
to a
single
diecasting.
Material
reducing
thin
walled
designs is
encouraged,
and
machining
is
frequently
eliminated.
