High Quality Die Casting Mold Making Services

Over the years, various methods have been used to manufacture metal components, with die casting molds and CNC machining being the most popular. Die casting is a high-efficiency technique used for mass-producing metal parts. Among the three core elements in die casting production, the die casting mold plays a crucial role. In this process, molten metal is injected into a precision-shaped mold cavity using either low or high-speed casting. The mold, composed of movable surfaces, applies pressure as the metal cools and solidifies. This not only eliminates shrinkage and porosity but also enhances the internal structure, resulting in improved mechanical properties and grain refinement.

Structure of a Die Casting Mold

A standard die casting mold consists of two main components:

  • Stationary (fixed) mold half – mounted on the die casting machine’s fixed platen.
  • Movable (ejector) mold half – fixed on the moving platen and includes the casting ejector system.

When casting begins, the two halves are clamped together by die locking force. The interface between both halves is known as the parting line. Opening and closing operations are performed by the ejector side, while undercuts and cavities are managed by mechanical or hydraulic core slides.

What is a Die Casting Mold?

A die casting mold is a specialized tool used in the die casting process to shape molten metal into complex and precise metal parts. It is typically made from hardened tool steel and designed to withstand high pressure and temperature during the injection of molten metal.

Uses of Die Casting Mould Parts

  • Molding function – accurately fill the liquid metal into the cavity to form complex geometric structures (such as thin walls, threads, and concave and convex textures).

  • Efficiency improvement – short single molding cycle (several seconds to tens of seconds), suitable for mass production (such as automotive parts).

  • Precision control – ensure part size tolerance (±0.05mm~±0.1mm) and surface finish (Ra 1.6μm or less).

  • Material saving – reduce processing allowance and reduce metal waste (such as near-net forming technology).

  • Quality assurance – reduce defects such as pores and shrinkage through cooling system and exhaust design.

Applications of Die Casting Molds

Die casting molds are essential for producing complex, high-precision metal parts across a wide range of industries. Their ability to handle high-volume, repeatable manufacturing with excellent surface finish and structural integrity makes them ideal for the following sectors:

Classification & Types of Die Casting Molds

Die casting molds can be categorized in several ways based on materials, structural design, casting process, and application complexity. Understanding these classifications helps manufacturers choose the most suitable mold type for specific production needs.

By Casting Material

  • Aluminum Alloy Die Casting Molds: The most common type, widely used in automotive and electronic components due to corrosion resistance and lightweight properties.
  • Zinc Alloy Die Casting Molds: Ideal for small, precision parts such as connectors and locks.
  • Magnesium Alloy Die Casting Molds: Applied in aerospace and 3C (computer, communication, consumer electronics) products for their ultra-lightweight and high specific strength.
  • Copper Alloy Die Casting Molds: Suitable for components requiring high thermal conductivity and wear resistance, such as heat sinks and bearings.

By Mold Structure

  • Single-Cavity Molds: Produce one part per cycle; simple structure and low cost.
  • Multi-Cavity Molds: Produce multiple parts per cycle; high efficiency, commonly used for small electronic components.
  • Unit (Modular) Molds: Feature a modular design with interchangeable inserts to produce different parts using the same mold base.

By Casting Process Type

  • Hot Chamber Die Casting Molds: Used for low-melting-point metals like zinc and magnesium alloys. The injection system is immersed directly in the molten metal.
  • Cold Chamber Die Casting Molds: Used for high-melting-point metals such as aluminum and copper alloys. Molten metal is poured into the chamber from an external source.

By Application Complexity

  • Standard Die Casting Molds: Used for producing parts with simple structures, such as housings and brackets.
  • Precision Die Casting Molds: Required for parts with high surface finish and dimensional accuracy, such as optical components and smartphone frames.
