The Invisible Benefits of Zinc Die Castings in Daily Routine

Posted by Xiamen Stick on August 12th, 2015

Zinc die castings are applied everywhere. The finished products including them are different, but often hide zinc alloys from sight. This does not indicate they are insignificant. The fact is that zinc die casting products provide safety, convenience and decoration. Zinc alloys are an amalgamation of strength, rigidity, toughness, bearing performance as well as include economical cast-ability.

You get to see surfaces of family objects like hand tools, household appliances, computers, mobiles, phones and vehicles. The machining part that lies under the surface providing functionality is often regarded as a phenomenon of design and engineering.

Hidden benefits of zinc die-castings in daily routine

1. Wide blades attached to decorated and coloured die cast bracket provide structural strength
2. The window blinds include die casting cord lock embedded in blind’s header
3. The high-tech razor handles designed with zinc alloy provides better finish
4. Highly decorative sleek smooth faucets highlights the bathroom with advanced durable zinc coating
5. Hair dryer has plastic exterior but the motor hidden beneath integrates 2 zinc die castings that provides bearing supports for smooth fan shaft turns
6. The switch mechanism in thermostats and humidstats use zinc die castings for control
7. The cabinets pull and hinges are designed from die castings for look and strength
8. Kitchen mixer-grinder incorporates a number of zinc cast structural parts for strength, looks and even neutralize the vibrations of mixing actions
9. Zinc alloys are ideal for door locks and bolt latch because of its potency, density and decorative finish properties
10. You rely on zinc alloys precision and durability from the time you sit in your car’s driver seat and turn the ignition key to start
11. The door lock, seat belt retractor system, power seats, mirror movements are examples of zinc die castings abilities to create complex geometrical design functional
12. Zinc acts as natural barrier to EMI and enhances mobile phone performance
13. In addition, the zinc framing supports the enclosed mobile devices
14. Electronic oil metering assembly inserted to check oil includes a housing of zinc alloy
15. Your golf shoes are outfitted with latest cleat system and zinc alloy provides corrosion resistance
16. Vending machine too incorporates a lot of zinc die casting parts
17. Bar code scanners is a marvellous electronic device with small scanning mechanisms, precisely positioned mirrors and sensors are contributed by built-in zinc dies castings
18. The initial installation of electrical wiring system would be difficult and expensive without die cast cable clamps, conduit connectors, elbow and more
19. Die cast gears and tools perform well for years

Zinc alloy is used because of its precision tolerance, strength & ductility, rigidity, toughness, anti-sparking, easy finishing, thin wall cast-ability, bearing properties, less energy for melting, extended tool life and recyclable properties.
