Precision and strength are important design considerations for the minicartridge tape drive. The capstan retainer is a good example. This part is actually two separate components cast together–a Torx head screw with an integral retainer sleeve. To produce the...
Central support unit for mounting all optical, electrical and mechanical components for the imaging plate technology in use in dentistry. In medical technology, die-cast zinc is used for many years. Overall, however, this area of application is less known. The...
Doppelscharniergelenk “C-Hinge” als Türscharnier für Waschmaschine mit erweitertem Öffnungswinkel. Das bislang eingesetzte Stanzbiegeteil konnte durch das günstige Warmkammerverfahren wirtschaftlich darstellbar durch ein Zinkdruckgussteil ersetzt werden,...
Deutliche Kosteneinsparung durch Substitution einer nachträglichen mechanischen Bearbeitung. Process: Zwei im Bauteil innen liegende und um 110° zueinander versetzte Hinterscheidungen, die mit Hilfe zweier im Durchmesser 17 mm Formkern integrierten Schrägschieber...
Key benefits: Close cooperation between diecaster and customer : clipping system Modern assembling technology : no screw = no creep!! This excellent product is the result of the perfect knowledge of tooling and casting
The lever was originally designed as a steel sand casting with machining operations to size the shaft, pivot hubs and cable connection holes. The final operation was a zinc plating. After a value analysis of an all-metal foot pedal control system, the materials...
Zinc die casting offers numerous advantages over aluminum extrusion in a number of heat sink applications. Die-cast zinc heat sinks offer one-piece construction, increased design flexibility and lower cost. One of the biggest advantages is that heat-dissipating fins...
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...
Complexity of the shapes allowing the integration of multiple positions, non-magnetic character of the zinc alloys compared to the plastics, long term dimensional stability and reliability.
Das Gussteil ist das Gehäuse einer Kamera, die im Mundinnenraum zum Einsatz kommt. Es zeichnet sich in Teilbereichen durch eine dünne Wandstärke aus. Die Oberfläche ist matt verchromt und laserbeschriftet. Sie weist einen Touch-free-Effekt auf – das heißt, im...
Field problems with a gear-driven lead screw assembly prompted the company’s engineers to re-evaluate the design. The gear drive comprised a steel screw-machined shaft and a plastic gear. Assembly required the plastic gear to be pressed onto the shaft. Failures...
The design requirements for the assembly’s 10-in.-long housing called for non-tapered walls in the meter chamber, allowing free rotation of the metering gears, and zero draft in the valve area. Previous designs utilized two aluminum castings requiring secondary...
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....
Segment drive for imaging plate technology in use in dentistry. The casting reveals a complex and accurate design tool. A modern and advanced die casting enables precise and optimum shape design that is consistent with the mechanical properties of the die-cast zinc...
