• Die-casting alloys are two to three times stronger than engineering plastics and have moduli 30 times higher. • The alloys’ thermal and electrical conductivities let die-cast parts perform double ...

The second process is used in the foundries for producing cast products. This is the oldest and simplest (in theory but not in practice) means of manufacturing shaped components. Other techniques, ...

The question of whether to machine or die-cast during production usually comes down to cost, especially as advancements in die-casting technology now mean there’s little to separate the two ...
