What are the applications of aluminum die casting?

Aluminum Die Casting Applications


1. Core Vehicle Components
Engine Systems:
Crankcase, Cylinder Block, Cylinder Head (High Heat Dissipation Requirements and Complex Oil Channels, One-Piece Molding)
Transmission Housing (Carries Gear Torque, Requires High Rigidity)
Chassis and Structures:
Wheel Hub Bracket, Steering Knuckle (Lightweight for Improved Control)
Electrical Vehicle Battery Tray (Integrated Cooling Pipe Design)


2. Key Electronic and Electrical Components
Heat Management:
Server Heat Sinks, LED Lamp Holders (Thin Fins + High Thermal Conductivity)
Power Adapter Housing (Electromagnetic Shielding Requirements)
Precision Structures:
Mobile Phone Midframe (0.5mm Thin Wall + Antenna Signal Window, One-Piece Casting)
UAV Motor Mount (Balances Weight Reduction and Power Output Stability)


3. Core Carriers for Industrial Equipment
Fluid Control Systems:
Hydraulic Valve Blocks (Machinary Channels Directly Cast to Prevent Leakage)
Pneumatic Actuator Housings (Pressure-Resistant Sealed Chamber)
Power Transmission:
Pump/Compressor Housings (Vibration-Fatigue Resistant Structure)
Agricultural Machinery Gearboxes (Dust-Proof Seals and Field-Resistant)


4. Consumer Products
Home Hardware:
High-end Door Lock Housing (Anodized Finish)
Outdoor Lighting Frame (Thin-Wall Structure for Wind Resistance)
Tools and Equipment:
Power Tool Gearbox (High Torque Capability in a Compact Space)
Medical Equipment Bracket (Sterile Surface Compatibility)


5. Emerging Technology Fields
New Energy Systems:
