Iron-free metals like zinc, tin, lead and magnesium possess unique properties that are brought to use by innovative product-shaping processes.<\/p>\n<p>The most popular metals that are cast for industrial applications are aluminium alloys, copper-based alloys and zinc alloys. Non-ferrous castings can be made by using one of the following three processes; sand casting process, gravity process and high pressure die casting process.<\/p>\n<h2>Processes used in making Non-ferrous castings<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sand casting process<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Considered as one of the simplest mediums for the production of non-ferrous castings, the sand casting process is the most economical process of the three. The castings take shape by pouring molten aluminium, zinc or copper into a sand mould.<\/p>\n<p>The sand casting process is chosen for a few reasons like; producing a small number of castings, for castings with complex or intricate shapes or for huge castings.<\/p>\n<p>With a sand mould, the largest casting sizes can be achieved as they have general versatility. The disadvantage however is that the production times are longer than the other two processes.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Gravity die casting process<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The gravity dies casting process makes use of steel or cast iron moulds that allow aluminium or zinc castings to be produced more accurately and at a lower cost. A better surface finish, as well as excellent mechanical properties, can be achieved through this casting process.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the tooling cost, it is a fraction of what is needed for pressure die casting. Non-turbulent mould filling ensures that the production of gravity castings possesses minimal porosity.<\/p>\n<p>Gravity dies casting machines usually have a range of microprocessor-controlled hydraulics that mechanise the movements of the die. They offer tilt pouring and up to four axes of hydraulic movements.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>High pressure die casting process<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>High pressure dies casting is the shortest route from molten metal to the completed component. It is done by injecting molten metal into a sturdy steel mould and allowing it to solidify under the pressure created inside the mould before ejecting it.<\/p>\n<p>The high pressure dies casting process allows precise, quick and cost-effective die casting production using aluminium or zinc as raw materials. This process meets the needs of hi-tech industries where dimensional tolerances and product appearance are critical.<\/p>\n<p>Most high pressure die casting machines have locking forces that range between 220 and 530 tonnes. The other features of this process include automatic ladling, real-time shot control, automatic casting extraction and cooling.<\/p>\n<p>Aluminium castings produced using one of the above-mentioned processes have applications in the automotive industry for cylinder heads, engines and manifolds. They are also used in electrical appliances, cooking equipment and food packaging industries.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While working with the finest non-ferrous metals, the element of engineering process guesswork is eliminated by adopting specialized casting techniques and methodologies that deliver aluminium components to match client specifications.
