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 !!...
The part has the following attributes: Part functionality : Allows one single part in zamak for electrical connection (interface) and mechanical (coding + retention) Connector function: Allow the transmission of an RF AM FM signal Reflow soldering assembly process:...
MICROPAX connectors have very demanding specifications which are met by zinc die casting, including: 1. Complex design requirements to accommodate a variety of connectors, ranging from 40 to 200 connecting pins. 2. Flatness across the mounting plane within +/- 0.005...
Zinc die casting was choosen to produce a new generation of cable connectors. Critical issues that were met include wall strength to assure durability and to withstand bulk processing, proper matching of draft allowances on the internal surfaces for smooth mating and...
This casting part was originally produced in die-cast aluminum. It could be produced only with disproportionate effort and high scrap rates. The parting plane in the casting could never reach the surface quality standards because at that position was a vacuum...
One model of a range of decorative door handles. Zinc is used because of its ability to easily take a plated finish and because it can be cast to accurate dimensions.
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...
To meet market requirements, Medeco wanted to develop a new high security lock priced just below its top-of-the-line dropbolt lock. The high-end lock model is all brass. The housing cover is investment cast and the thumbturn is a machined extrusion. As other processes...
This design opener can open all kind of bottles without any damage and with very little effort. With its innovative patented mechanism , this tool won the Bundespreis 2016 award in Germany. Reasons for choosing zinc alloy: ZP5 was chosen over other materials for its...
The main feature of this lock design is that the handle is cast with a cylindrical shaped wall, but is then post formed to a spherical shape. If the Alloy 3 used for this casting did not have high ductility, the final shape could not be achieved and the pressure...
Warner Gear’s 4WD locking hub takes advantage of ZA-8’s net shape castability, creep resistance and excellent finishing characteristics to provide a highly functional and aesthetic cover. ZA-8 alloy was chosen because it handles temperatures close to 200...
Wave guides are built to exacting specifications in dimensional accuracy, straightness and flatness. Hot chamber die casting enables critical cavity sections to be cast with little or no draft; very difficult in aluminium cold chamber die casting. Flatness tolerance...
This design high-end remote control has tactile control without any knobs. The zamak surface was cast to a thickness of 0,6mm with less than 0,05mm tolerance on thickness. Piezo elements translate the bending of the surface into electric signals. Casting of the part...
Special features: precise recording, splash water protection for installation components, ensuring a circumferential wall fitting, uniform mold filling at heterogeneous wall thicknesses, short delay part : structurally specified wall thickness differences required...
For three generations, B-V has been producing heavy-duty, specialty hand punches from two sand-cast malleable iron halves. Sand casting inaccuracies required sorting and extensive fitting to locate matching halves. Thickness variations up to 0.025 in. were encountered...
