High pressure diecasting of aluminium and zinc alloys

Why aluminium alloys?

- High tensile strenght at low weight
- High natural resistance to corrosion
- High electromagnetic shielding and thermal conductivity
- Nice, smooth and pure surface
- Continuous measurement accuracy, even with large volumes and high complexity
- Easy and precise to finish
- Very durable, aluminum is infinitely recyclable while maintaining physical properties

Why zinc alloys?

- Low fluidity, ideal for diecasting complex and thin parts
- Very suitable for production of small parts with accurate tolerances
- Limited cost of energy because of low melting point
- Easily absorbing shocks and vibrations
- Rapid production, requires little finishing

Disadvantage: not te be used at working temperatures above 100°C.
