Manufacturing process used to produce complex, high-precision metal parts by injecting molten aluminum into a steel mold (called a die/mold) under high pressure.
Once cooled and solidified, the part is ejected from the mold, resulting in a strong, lightweight component with excellent surface finish and dimensional accuracy.
1. Light Weight with Excellent Strength to Weight Ratio.
2. High Dimensional Accuracy
3. Excellent Thermal & Electrical Conductivity
4. Corrosion Resistance (Optional upgrade with surface finishes: Powder Coating, Wet Painting, Anodizing, ED Coating, etc)
5. Cost-Effective
6. Support Complex Design
