General purpose stainless steel parts performance use summary Many variable factors indicate the characteristics of the corrosive medium, ie, the chemical and its concentration, atmospheric state, temperature, and time, so if the correct properties of the medium are not known, it is difficult to use materials and select materials. However, the following can be used as a guide. Type 304 Widely used...

Die casting is a metal casting process, which is characterized by applying high pressure to the molten metal using the cavity of the mold. Molds are usually made of higher-strength alloys. This process is somewhat similar to injection molding. Most die castings are iron-free, such as zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, tin, and lead-tin alloys and their alloys. Depending on the type of die ca...

Why does stainless steel part rust? Why does stainless steel part rust? When brown rust spots (spots) appear on the surface of stainless steel fasteners, people are surprised: "Stainless steel does not rust, and rust is not stainless steel. It may be a problem with the steel." In fact, this is a one-sided misconception about the lack of understanding of stainless steel. Stainless steel will rust u...

Die Casting Equipment Die casting machines can be divided into two different types, hot chamber die casting machines and cold chamber die casting machines. The difference lies in how much force they can withstand. The typical pressure range is between 400 and 4000 tons. Hot chamber die casting Hot chamber die casting, sometimes called gooseneck die casting, has molten liquid and semi-liquid metal ...

Regardless of our Aluminum CNC Machining Service industry, choosing the right material is one of the most important components in determining the overall functionality and cost of your part. Here are some quick tips for choosing the right material. Metals As a general rule, softer metals, like aluminum and brass, as well as plastics machine easily and will take less time to remove material from th...

How to Choose the Right CNC Material for Your Part (2) Plastics Plastic material can be a less expensive alternative to metals if the design does not require the rigidity of metal. Polyethylene is easy to machine, and it is about 1/3 the cost of 6061 aluminum. ABS is typically 1.5 times the cost of acetal. Nylon and polycarbonate are approximately 3 times the cost of acetal. Although plastics coul...

CNC machining process For example, certain positioning reference surfaces need to be machined easily and accurately in the semi-finishing stage or even in the roughing stage. Sometimes in order to avoid the conversion of the dimensional chain, in the finishing stage, semi-finishing of certain secondary surfaces can also be arranged. After determining the processing method and processing stage of t...
