Application of Zinc Alloy Die Casting

The popularization and application of zinc alloy die-casting and aluminum alloy die-casting, the die-casting process has become an efficient, less cutting-free metal forming process method with rapid development in modern times, especially for zinc alloy die-casting. For those who do not understand zinc alloy die casting, where is zinc alloy die casting used?

Zinc alloy die-casting is an efficient and less cutting-free metal forming process method that has developed rapidly in modern times. Due to the above-mentioned characteristics of die casting, this process method has been widely used in all walks of life in the national economy. In addition to being used in automobiles and motorcycles, instruments and meters, and industrial electrical appliances, die-casting parts are also widely used in household appliances, agricultural machinery, radio, communications, machine tools, transportation, shipbuilding, cameras, clocks, computers, textile equipment and other industries. Among them, automobile and motorcycle manufacturing are the most important application areas, with automobiles accounting for about 70% and motorcycles accounting for about 10%. Some of the die-casting parts currently produced are as small as a few grams, and the largest aluminum alloy castings have a mass of 50kg and a diameter of 2m.

In the die casting of non-ferrous alloys, aluminum alloys account for the highest proportion, accounting for 60% to 80%. Zinc alloy is second, accounting for 10% to 20%. In foreign countries, zinc alloy castings were rarely used in the past, and were used in forestry machinery, less than 1%. However, in recent years, with the development of the automobile industry, the electronic communication industry and the requirements of lightweight products, coupled with the recent improvement of magnesium alloy die-casting technology, the magnesium alloy die-casting market has attracted much attention. It can be expected that with the increasing depletion of metal mineral resources, magnesium alloy materials, known as “green engineering materials in the 21st century”, will be used in automobiles, 3C (computers-computers, communications-communication equipment and consumer electronics- -Consumer electronics) products, aerospace, national defense and other fields have more and more important application value and broad application prospects.
