The part : This high performance self-drilling insert for plaster board (partition, lining, ceiling) is always delivered with its self-tapping screw, forming two parts. The insert is composed of two rigidly attached and then articulated (body and toggle) and is...
Elta’s faucet construction is known as shell technology. It features a die-cast zinc cover, or escutcheon, over a brazed copper and brass assembly. The thin zinc cover is much more uniform than brass; it provides near net shape die casting with tolerances of 0.005...
Key benefits: Outstanding control of each step and parameters involved in the full process i.e. from design to final part to achieve “the perfection” Same surface quality and appearance obtained on all the 6 cast parts of this assembly Fingers print surface free !!...
A two-piece holder was developed for a precision scientific instrument. Both castings have detailed features requiring tolerances of +/-0.00025 in. Extrusion could not be used because it could not hold the tolerances, while CNC and wire EDM were not cost effective. By...
Automatic closing mechanisms for swing doors have to be adjustable and brake the movement of the door. The mechanism must be strong, resistant, reliable and compact enough to be housed in a casing. Pressure injected zinc alloy casings offer undeniable advantages such...
Strength , a tolerance for accurate detailing, its non corrosive properties compared to aluminium, and production speeds faster than plastic made diecast zinc the obvious solution when it came to the manufacture of Unicast’s “Ezi – Fill” fuel...
Key benefits: Excellent example to substitute Brass No secondary operation : screw thread directly as cast Redesigned concept : switching fom machined part to casting technology Split core technology
The part is a device component warranting the operators security during the intervention on high-tension lines. Reasons for choosing zinc alloy: Complex tool design Combination of thin wall casting and rigidity Dimensional requirements e.g. internal and external...
Elements of an equipment (TYCAS) to detect the positions of approaching aircraft according to new security norms of the IATA. Economy of the process compared to traditional machining despite limited series, and to pressure diecast aluminium due to off-mould...
Ignition switch corrosion was the source of customer frustration and concern. Standard panel nuts, like the ones used to secure the ignition switch to the riding mower control panel, are made of stamped steel. The die cast company’s technical staff proposed...
Initially, the Q-LOK design was all plastic for low-impact sports. However, for high-impact sports such as soccer and football the added strength of zinc alloy was necessary to meet impact requirements. Die-cast zinc provides the receptacles with superior corrosion...
When the AKZO Salt Company had problems getting roof-bolt wedge anchors from its malleable-iron foundry supplier, it opened the door for zinc alloy. Mine management set out to find an alternative source for these vital parts, but were unable to find another ferrous...
The 3 parts form a subassembly that allows measuring the thickness of ophthalmic lenses before edging. The frame ensures the palpate lever guidance in the ophthalmic glass machine tool. Then, the glass is machined with the contour note during the palpate operation....
A cylindrical zinc pressure diecast component with an internally die cast thread. The function is to tighten the fitting on to the hose. Zinc Alloy No. 3 was chosen because of its stiffness and bright finish which is unaffected by ultra violet light. Special...
The 2 parts are used as casing including and protecting the electric system of traffic lights. The material properties provides protection against vandalism and have much longer lifetime than polymer materials and due to thinner sections, lighter than the previous...
