Aluminum ingot is one of the most important raw materials in the current industry. There are two main processes for making aluminum ingot. One is machined aluminum ingot, and the other is die-cast aluminum ingot. Today, let's give you a specific introduction.

Number one: materials

The aluminum composition of machined and die-cast aluminum ingot is different.

Number two: cost

The cost calculation method of these two processes is based on its weight and machining to calculate, of course, but also the price of materials and labor costs and so on. But relatively speaking, the cost of die-cast aluminum ingot is higher than that of machined aluminum ingot.

Number three: Appearance

Die-cast aluminum ingot technology is commensurate with the injection molding process of plastic, can be made at will to any desired shape, such as the shell above the street lamp is commonly used in die-cast aluminum ingot; The mechanical processing of aluminum ingot is generally used in the shape of the same section, the change is smaller and more single, generally used for bulb lamp heat sink, doors and Windows of aluminum ingot profile.

Fourth, productivity

In terms of production efficiency, die casting adopts injection molding process, and the production efficiency is naturally higher. Due to mass production, it can generally produce more than 1000-2000, and the size is not chaotic, the defects are very small, and the shrinkage rate is 0.5%.

Mechanical processing on the processing of the ingredients will be a little more, the efficiency of the natural die casting effect is not high, will be relatively low.

Fifth: thermal conductivity

The conductivity of die-cast aluminum ingot is generally between 80-90W/M.K. The conductivity of machining rate is generally between 180-190W/M.K.

Number six: Application

The use and application of die-cast aluminum ingot is generally in the automobile, street lamp and now the mobile phone industry, some mobile phone shell accessories are also made of die-cast aluminum ingot; And machined aluminum ingot is generally used for down lights, table lamps, lanterns, chandeliers and door and window parts materials and other applications.

The above is a summary of the difference between machined aluminum ingot and die-cast aluminum ingot. If you have more information about the above two kinds of aluminum ingot, welcome to communicate with us.
