What is Die Casting Mold Material?
Specialized materials created for handling the harsh conditions of the die casting process are used to make die casting molds. Molten metal is repeatedly injected, solidified, and expelled from these molds, which withstand extreme temperatures and pressures. Die casting mold materials need to possess a special set of qualities, such as strength, heat conductivity, and fatigue and wear resistance.
Common Die Casting Mold Material
At PCB YOU, we use premium materials to ensure durability and performance when creating molds. Some common materials include:
- H13 Tool Steel: H13 is a chromium-molybdenum steel widely used in the die-casting industry due to its excellent toughness and durability.
- KD61 Steel: SKD61 is a Japanese standard hot-work steel known for its superior high-temperature resistance.
- Special Alloys: In specific cases, molds are crafted from alloys tailored to meet unique performance requirements.
- Graphite: This is ideal for specialized molds that require non-metallic materials with high-temperature resistance and self-lubricating properties.
Types of Die Casting Molds We Can Produce
Die-casting molds, also known as dies, are categorized based on their design, application, and production requirements. Each type serves a specific purpose, enabling manufacturers to produce high-quality metal components efficiently. Below are the main types of die-casting molds:
- Single-Cavity Molds: They produce one part per cycle, which is ideal for simple designs and low production volumes.
- Multi-Cavity Molds: These molds feature multiple cavities to produce identical parts simultaneously, boosting efficiency for high-volume runs.
- Family Molds contain cavities for different parts, enabling the production of multiple components in one cycle. They are cost-effective for assemblies.
- Unit Die Molds: These molds feature a modular design with interchangeable inserts, offering flexibility and reduced tooling costs for custom or small-batch production.
- Trim Die Molds: They remove excess material (flash) from cast parts, ensuring clean and precise finishes.
- Hot Chamber Molds: These molds are designed for low-melting-point metals like zinc. They ensure faster cycles by submerging the injection mechanism in molten metal.
- Cold Chamber Molds: These molds are created using high-melting-point metals like aluminum and copper, with molten metal ladled from an external furnace.
- Insert Molds: They combine pre-fabricated inserts with casting to create composite parts, reducing post-production assembly.
- Progressive Die Molds: These molds can be used to perform multiple forming, trimming, and cutting operations in a single cycle for complex parts.
