About The Part
The aluminum housing was designed to protect components inside. It expected with minimum vibrations during working, so tight tolerance is necessary, especially for the critical dimensions which bears on parts proper assembly and working directly. Die casting mold design
and Aluminum Die Casting process control are important link for parts quality.
About The Customer
The customer is a worldwide innovation leader in fans and motors with over 15,000 different products, the group has the ideal solution for virtually all air technology and drive engineering tasks. Their business scope includes Agriculture, Air-conditioning and Ventilation, Appliance, Automotive, Commercial Refrigeration, Heating, Industrial, Lighting, IT / Telecom, Medical, Transportation and more. For this project, they would like to start with a prototype Aluminum Die Casting mold to verify the new design and have a low volume manufacturing parts. We quoted to the customer, he was happy with our price and lead-time.
Casting Manufacturer Starts with DFM (Design for Manufacture Ability) Report
TEAM Rapid as a professional casting manufacturer, we can provide strong engineering supports to our customers, this greatly cuts down potential quality risks that limit product launching quickly. For this project, our engineers got back DFM to the customer the same day we received the PO. We list out the suggested parting lines, gate & overflows location, ejector location, draft etc in the report, this could help the customer insight into how we would build his mold.

Kick Off The Tool Building
Customer approved the DFM, they were happy with our tooling proposal. This Aluminum Die Casting mold consists of cavity, core and 1 slider. As the mold would work under harsh condition, the mold needed to be strong enough to withstand high pressure and temperature. Mold heat treatment / hardening is necessary, this process was proceeded after semi machining on cavity, core and slider, fine machining & EDM would be later after mold heat treatment. Building a pressure die casting mold usually takes a long time, it involves a series of processes such as CNC machining, EDM machining, heat treatment, mold fitting etc. At TEAM Rapid, we can shorten the die casting mold rapid manufacturing lead-time to 10-25+ calendar days by our rich experience and superb skill.

Aluminum Die Casting
The die casting mold was on the machine and ready to cast, we poured the melted aluminum from a crucible into the sleeve. The liquid aluminum was injected into the cavity under setting pressure. From clamping, casting, cooling, ejection, we got the cast part successfully. After going a step further casting parameters optimization, the part's cycle time was locked down at 42 seconds. We ran these small batch Aluminum Die Casting parts smoothly at the T1. The gate and overflows were wiped off after ejection by post machining.
