How Zinc Die Casting Works

How Zinc Die Casting Works

Zinc die casting is a process that involves four main steps:

1. Preparation of the mold: The mold is made of two halves, the cavity, and the core. The cavity is the shape of the final part, and the core is used to create internal features of the part.
2. Injection: Molten zinc is injected into the mold at high pressure, typically between 1000 and 4500 psi.
3. Cooling: The mold is cooled to solidify the zinc.
4. Ejection: The part is ejected from the mold, and the cycle starts over.

Normally, we use die-casting machines to produce the zamak/zinc metal products.
